For much of the upcoming forecast period, the conditions will be hot and dry with only marginal chances for precipitation each day. The high temperatures are forecasted to be in the lower to mid 90s for the next few days.
Towards the middle of the work week, things start getting hotter again, with highs in the mid 90s on Wednesday and in the upper 90s on Thursday. The heat index may even get above 100 on Friday.
There is thankfully some good news on Friday. The GFS forecasts a small cold front to move through on Friday. The cold front is visible on the map above (keep in mind the GFS tends to overestimate temperatures by a couple degrees, so just mentally subtract 2 or 3 degrees on the map). Not only will this lower the temperatures temporarily, it will also bring rain to the area. Thunderstorms are forecast on Friday and Friday night.
