Thursday Forecast

Thursday: Tomorrow will feature mostly sunny skies and warm temperatures. The day will start clear and temps in the upper 50s (58). Mostly sunny skies will dominate the day as the temp rapidly increases. The temperature will max out in the low 90s (91). Winds will be 17-24mph with gusts as high as  35mph.  A few low clouds may bleed in towards nightfall. Temps will be in the mid-low70s during the overnight hours.

We will see the 90s this weekend through Monday. We may see temps in the mid 90s this weekend with heat indices well over 100ยบ. Also, a chance for thunderstorms exists Friday afternoon. A marginal chance for severe weather exists for Monday afternoon-evening. I will post more on the potential for severe weather in the coming days. The main threats appear to be large hail and strong winds.

Wednesday Forecast

A few showers and thunderstorms are possible during the evening hours. These storms will not be severe, but an isolated wind gust of 40-50mph can't be ruled out.

Wednesday: Wednesday will be very similar to today in the sense of how dry it will be. The day will start in the mid 50s under partly cloudy skies. These clouds will diminish in the afternoon to a mostly sunny sky. The temperature will warm rapidly in the afternoon into the upper 70s to near 80. Winds will be 13-18mph with an occasional gust near 25mph. As nigh falls, skies will become clear. This combined with desert-like air will cool the air quickly. Temps during the evening hours will fall into the low-mid 50s by midnight.

Mother's Day Forecast

Sunday: The day will start in the mid 50s. A mix of clouds and sun are likely for the day tomorrow. Temps will likely reach the mid 70s, but some models want the temp to near 80. Not really sure on this idea because of a cold front near our area. Temps in the mid-upper 70s will bubble up a few storms in the afternoon. These showers/ storms will be isolated. Winds will be 10-15mph with an occasional gust over 20mph. As night falls, these showers will diminish skies will gradually become partly cloudy. Temps during the evening hours will fall into the mid 50s.
