The weak front will move back over our area for Friday into Saturday which will likely give us some showers and thunderstorms both days, some rain may be heavy at times. Highs will only be in the 80s but the humidity will again rise with dew points again over 70 degrees.
Get ready for another heatwave as high temperatures Sunday through Wednesday will be well up into the 90s along with rather high humidity. A cold front may cause some showers Tuesday night into Wednesday.
