Tracking a few storms, dangerous heat by the end of the weekend
TONIGHT: Partly cloudy to mostly clear with a few isolated storms. Lows in the upper 60s to around 70.
TOMORROW: Mostly sunny and humid with highs in the upper 80s. Heat indices reaching the mid-upper 90s. A few isolated storms possible.
EXTENDED: Storms this evening will be very hit and miss, but wherever they pop up they could produce small hail and wind gusts between 30-40 mph. The storm chance exists tomorrow and Saturday, but the coverage will be very sparse. Temperatures begin to heat up tomorrow with the heat index reaching the upper 90s. The weekend is hot and humid and mainly dry with highs getting into the lower 90s. With dew points in the 70s, it will feel hotter with a heat index around 100-103. We'll likely need to issue a Weather Alert Day from Sunday-Tuesday for heat indices rising above 105 all 3 of those days. A pattern shift will bring a dramatic change between Wednesday and Thursday as a cold front moves through, bringing a chance for decent rainfall up to an inch and highs back into the 80s.Â
