Chief Meteorologist Patrick Rockey’s First Warning Forecast
Some good news, and some bad news as we head into the work week.
First the good news: the next few days are looking much drier than the past few days.
Some of us picked up 3 to 4 inches of rain on Sunday. But it looks like we will get 3 to 4 days to dry out!
However, the wet weather will be returning with a cold front, moving in and crossing the region into the weekend.
That means we can expect more rounds of showers and thunderstorms beginning Friday and continuing into early next week.
More bad news when it comes to temperatures: after a mild Monday, we are really going to crank up the heat and humidity.
Tuesday will be our transition day with high temperatures close to our normal in the upper 80s and lower 90s.
But after that, things start to really heat up with high temperatures in the low-to-mid 90s from mid week into at least early next week.
And when you factor in the humidity, we can expect more triple digit heat index values.It looks like our steamiest days will be this weekend. Stay tuned.
