The heat and humidity continue to dominate the weather forecast, but relief is on the way as temperatures are expected to drop into the low 90s by Friday. This shift in temperatures will provide some respite compared to the oppressive upper 90s we have been experiencing.
However, the summer warmth isn’t going anywhere just yet, as sunshine is expected to prevail into the weekend. Along with the heat, we can anticipate afternoon storms, some of which could escalate to severe levels with the potential for high winds and hail. The slow-moving nature of these storms may also lead to localized flooding in certain areas.
As the day winds down, we can expect temperatures to dip back to the 70s, with partly cloudy skies leading into Saturday morning. The weekend is predicted to share similar weather patterns, marked by a continuation of heat and humidity, with occasional afternoon showers and storms.
Looking ahead, the trend of hot and muggy weather is likely to persist until mid-next week. Residents are advised to stay cool and ensure their air conditioning systems are functioning effectively. There is a possibility of a cold front passing through mid-next week, which could finally bring a more significant change to the heatwave.
Overall, while the weather remains challenging with high temperatures, the upcoming slight cool down offers a glimmer of hope for those seeking a break from the summer heat.
