After a dry end to the week with sunshine and warm temperatures throughout the day on Saturday, we will keep the sunshine in the forecast for the start of the weekend on Saturday
Expect the sunshine to continue into the start of the weekend on Saturday, but it will be hotter and more humid looking ahead into the start of the weekend. Expect high temperatures to warm into the lower 90s by the time we get to Saturday afternoon, but once you factor in the humidity, expected index values to rise into the mid to upper 90s by Saturday afternoon. If you’re going to be spending any time outside on Saturday, the Woodward Dream Cruise is happening this weekend. Make sure you’re drinking plenty of water, and have that SPF 30 or better at hand throughout the day.
Chances for showers and thunderstorms returned by the time we get to the end of the weekend and start of next week. Expect partly cloudy skies throughout the day on Sunday, chances for showers and thunderstorms roll in by the afternoon and evening. High temperature is dropping back into the mid upper 80s, but we are still expecting heat index values to rise into the 90s for what it will feel like outside by the afternoon.
The Storm Prediction Center has placed the region under a marginal risk (1 out of 5) for severe weather on Saturday. Damaging winds will be the primary threat, but frequent lightning and heavy rainfall can be expected if thunderstorms become strong to possibly severe, but I do think these storm chances will be late in the evening and into the overnight.
Chances for showers and thunderstorms continue into the forecast, looking ahead into the end of the weekend on Sunday, before we keep the chances of showers and thunderstorms into the start of next week on Monday. High temperatures in the upper 80s on Sunday will drop into the mid-80s by Monday.
Another chance of showers and thunderstorms rolls into the region looking ahead into Tuesday, but that also brings in some cooler temperatures to go with it. High temperatures in the lower 80s on Tuesday will stick around into the middle of next week as well. A mixture of sunshine and clouds for Wednesday will give way to mostly sunny skies by the time we get to Thursday.
Dry weather continues to stick around in the forecast for the end of next week on Friday. High temperatures are expected to remain in the lower 80s by Friday afternoon.
