The past few days have featured beautiful summertime weather, with reasonable temperatures and low humidity. This week forecast generally looks to continue that trend, with the main chance for precipitation coming tomorrow evening into Monday.
Sunday-Monday
Clouds will build through the day, with a shower or two possible tomorrow afternoon, but steady rain should hold off until the evening hours. Temps will be seasonable, with highs in the low to mid 80s. A cold front will approach from the west Sunday evening, bringing an area of rain to the state. Unlike our previous several systems, this will be a more uniform area of rain rather than convectively focused, and as such the whole state should get a much-needed drink. Generally expecting between half an inch to an inch of rain across the state. Steady rain should be out of the state by early Monday morning, with some lingering showers over eastern areas possible through the morning commute. Otherwise, expect a clearing trend on Monday, with sunshine across most of the state for the afternoon, and highs in the upper 70s to lower 80s.
Quiet weather expected for the remainder of the work week, with a steady warming trend throughout. Expect highs around 80 on Tuesday, in the mid to upper 80s on both Wednesday and Thursday, and in the upper 80s to near 90 on Friday. Humidity levels will also consistently increase through the week, with the dewpoint approaching 70 across much of the state on Friday. While not as humid as some of what we’ve seen recently, you’ll definitely feel the humidity on Friday!
Saturday-Sunday
At first glance, warm temps continue through the weekend, but humidity drops significantly, so it should be a great weekend to get some outdoor time in! Front moves through Friday evening and could spark some scattered showers and thunderstorms, but guidance is very unenthusiastic and so will just mention a slight chance for now.
