What To Expect:

Thursday morning starts off cool across the region. A jacket or light sweater might be advised.

Conditions turn sunnier with warmer temperatures, reaching the mid-80s in the afternoon.

The fire weather risk isn't quite as high. Humidity levels won't be as low, meaning the air won't be as intensely dry. Winds will be calmer as well.

In terms of rain chances, they'll be few and far between as the best chances take place near the coast. And still, these chances will be very low and isolated as a whole, at only 10-20%, mainly for our coastal counties.

For the weekend, temperatures will heat up in a big way. Plan for highs in the upper 80s to near 90°.

A few very isolated and spotty showers will be possible for the weekend as well, as an almost summer-like set up takes hold.

Next week, Mother Nature really cranks up the heat as highs break into the low 90s.

In the grand scheme of things, the drought will continue to worsen and will have much more runway it looks like until it starts to get better as we move toward the beginning of May.
