We will likely hit 105-107 degrees for a high temperature today. A few storms have fired up across the area with storm coverage of around 30%. Heat index values are still in the 110-120 degree range.

All-time record highs could be tied today. Today’s temperature profile will look very similar to last Thursday’s with highs in the 105-107 degree range. Only a few isolated storms will be possible later in the afternoon, but most of the rain looks to stay to our north tomorrow.

By Monday, a front will work down to the south. This should give us a good scattering of storms on Monday, with rain coverage of 50%. The front stalls out across the area on Tuesday, lowering temperatures and keeping healthy rain chances in the forecast.

Storm chances return to the isolated range Wednesday through Saturday, 20-30%, but temperatures will be in the 90s versus the triple digits!
