Looking Ahead: 90s and Fire Concerns
The heat intensifies Wednesday through the latter half of the week, with highs jumping into the upper 80s and lower 90s. As dry air reaches the area and a heat dome builds mid-week, temperatures will approach the 90 degree mark quickly, FOX 35's TJ Springer reported.

A cold front may bring a few scattered showers on Thursday and Friday, though highs will remain above average in the lower 90s. As we head into next weekend, the front is expected to push back north as a warm front, potentially increasing chances for showers and storms.
The most significant weather shift arrives Sunday, as a stronger cold front moves in. This system brings a 60% chance of rain and storms—the best chance for moisture the region will see all week. Some lingering showers and storms may persist into early next week.
