Unseasonably warm temperatures are expected among mostly dry and breezy afternoons for much of the week. Can't rule out a few spotty showers Monday afternoon and again late week, but any rain that does occur will likely be brief and insignificant to the worsening drought conditions.
Unseasonably warm temperatures alongside low afternoon relative humidity & breezy winds will promote increased fire danger over the coming days.
Dry weather to continue, along with a warming trend. High temperatures will approach between the mid to upper 80s across most of the area into the coming week.
