5 Day Outlook

We've been advertising high, possibly dangerous, temperatures for a couple days now. Here a some safety tips from our archives for protecting yourself.

After another hot day on Saturday, a weak front will move through the area Sunday morning. This will be our best chance of seeing any rain for the next several days. Once the rain clears, less humid air will move in during the afternoon hours and remain through Monday. The humidity will begin to sneak back in on Tuesday and oppressive heat will return again by Wednesday.
