Quick Facts:
- Triple digits are gone, but above normal temps remain this weekend
- Staying dry for the weekend and into next week
- First strong, fall cold-front and better rain chances in the forecast
Hot weekend
Temps will be well above normal this weekend with highs in the 90s area-wide.
These temps around around 10°-12° above normal for this time of year. While your outdoor plans may not be as comfy as you'd like this time of year, they won't be interrupted by storms as we will stay dry.
Side note: Beware of the pollen. The sunny and the at time breezy days will help spread ragweed pollen. Ragweed pollen season runs from August through November with the peak in mid to late September. The season ends with the first freeze of the year which on average falls on Nov. 22.
Any rain?
We are seeing some signs of a change, and we hope that continues. Showers and storms look to return to the area next week with best chances looking to be this next Wednesday. There could be a little rain Tuesday and Thursday as well. As always, this far out, it's too soon for exact timing, severe risks, etc. but it does look like an increasingly good chance of rain toward the middle of next week.
14 Day Forecast
You'll see the pattern change we just discussed reflected in the 14-day forecast. Great-looking highs in the 80s and even some 70s are possible late week into next week! Morning lows will likely be the coolest we've seen so far this fall especially by next weekend.
