The weekend will be much of the same with sunny skies and even warmer temperatures across the region. The heat won’t get to the level where it was around a week and a half ago, but will certainly be grueling if you are in it for extended periods of time. Here’s the 4th of July weekend forecast:
As the next work week starts, we’ll start to see chances of showers and thunderstorms develop Monday evening. From then on, on and off thunderstorms will be forming until Thursday night. Some of these storms may be severe due to sunshine from breaks in the disturbances. While the chances are currently not high, there will be areas impacted by these storms across the region.
