Tracking a dry holiday weekend with lower humidity

TONIGHT: Partly cloudy with a spot storm or two through daybreak. Lows in the low 70s.

TOMORROW: Mostly sunny and hot. Highs in the upper 80s.

EXTENDED: High pressure continues to dominate our weather, but a drier air mass is expected to settle in from the north, bringing in less humid air through Sunday. That will give us a break on the heat index and keep it feeling like the upper 80s to around 90 both days. We stay dry through Monday, but that humidity returns early in the week with a stubborn upper level ridge not willing to budge. This will keep highs near 90 each day with a heat index in the mid-upper 90s. We see daily chances of storms driven by the heat of the day, but no organized storm system is on the horizon for awhile. This very July-like pattern will stick with us through the week into next weekend with little measurable rain for most locations.
