5/31 – Rob Knight’s “Midday New” HOT Forecast

Today starts a warming trend for the forecast area as high pressure builds into the area. This will suppress rain chances and will send temperatures into the mid to possibly upper 90s through the rest of the week and into the weekend. The weekend looks to be fairly warm as temperatures climb well into the 90s.

Heat indices will reach into the 100S and we could be flirting with heat advisory criteria before it is all said and done this weekend.

We will have to continue to watch our temperatures through the weekend to see if a Heat Advisory will be needed at some point this weekend. Guidance still points to a weak front moving through the forecast area late Sunday into Monday.

We will continue to carry pops for this time frame. Next week look for a warm typical summer time pattern. Expect highs in the 90s and chances for isolated afternoon shower and thunderstorms.
