Late Summer Wildfire Threat Continues

Today's Records and Climate Data

A Marginal Risk for strong to severe thunderstorms will be possible across portions of the Four State Region this afternoon into the early evening hours ahead of a weak frontal boundary. Damaging winds will be the primary threat.

Hazardous heat will continue into the Labor Day holiday with air temperatures and humidity combining to push heat indices above 105 "Feels-Like" degrees by around lunch time, peaking near 109 during the afternoon.

Yet another warm night (expect mid-70s overnight) precedes hazardous heat for Labor Day 2026 with widespread chances of triple-digit heat, light winds, and meager rain chances through the afternoon. Exercise caution with any plans outdoors during the day.

Despite some recent rainfall, flash drought conditions continue across the entire Four State Region. As a result, much of the region remains under a Burn Ban at this time.

Here are today's climate records for selected sites across our Four-State area.
