Low pressure in the Gulf of Mexico will send numerous showers and thunderstorms our way. The strongest storms will contain 50+ mph winds, frequent lightning, torrential rain, some hail and perhaps a tornado.
Quiet weather returns Friday. Temperatures will climb to the mid-80s and we can’t rule out an isolated shower but otherwise it’s dry.
Saturday looks dry, warm, and sunny with temperatures into the upper 80s.
We’ll close out the weekend humid and hot with temperatures nearing 90 degrees. Our next cold front will sweep through with scattered showers. Cooler temperatures return early next week.
