Forecaster Derrah Getter's First Warning Forecast
A gorgeous Father's Day is on tap!
This evening will be comfortable. Humidity will be relatively low and temperatures will fall to the mid 60s under mostly clear skies.
If you're heading to the beach tomorrow, temperatures will be in the upper 70s along the coast thanks to a light northeasterly breeze. The rip current risk will be low.
Sunday will pretty much be a repeat of Saturday. Low humidity, lots of sunshine and temperatures in the middle 80s.
Rain chances will remain low for the whole week as a drier air mass dominates the region.
Temperatures and dew points will be on the rise to kick off the work week. Highs will trend in the mid and upper 80s Monday through Thursday. It will feel closer to the 90s once we factor in the humidity. by the end of the week temperatures will touch the low 90s and heat indices for inland spots could reach the triple digits.
Juneteenth is looking good for any events happening across the area, it'll just be warm. The official start of summer is on Thursday! Highs will top out in the upper 80s.
Next weekend is expected to be our warmest one yet with highs holding in the low 90s.
