Sunday, June 28, looks to be the warmest day of the weekend, climbing to about 830F with minimal rain chances. Overall, the weekend setup is dry, bright, and friendly to just about any outdoor plan you can cook up.
Heat Risk Next Week
After the mellow weekend, the pattern swings hard in the other direction starting Monday, June 29, with a rapid warm-up that peaks around midweek.
- Monday: Highs near 910F.
- Tuesday, June 30: Mid-to-upper 90s, around 970F.
- Wednesday, July 1: Still hotter, near 990F.
