Hot and hazy before strong storms arrive on Saturday

Expect a mix of clouds and sun at sunrise this Friday morning. Dry weather is holding, while temperatures hold in the lower 70s. A muggier start, as dew points hover in the upper 60s. Overall, a quiet start to end the workweek.

This afternoon will bring the heat! Hazy sunshine and hot temperatures are expected, while winds freshen from the southwest at 6-12 mph. Today's high could reach 93° in downtown, marking the hottest for July so far. Feels-like temperatures will be pushing the middle to upper 90s. No storms expected for your outdoor plans but bring the water.

Scattered storms return to the mix by Saturday afternoon, under hot and humid conditions. These storms will bring heavy rainfall in spots, frequent lightning and isolated, severe gusts. A few warnings will be expected, if not, a storm watch being issued for parts of the state. Best to have a plan B inside, at times, and be sure to check in on your phone for any warnings.

Sunday will bring calmer and slightly cooler conditions with spotty shower chances, especially for the early hours.
