Scorcher Of A Weekend Before Relief Arrives…
It’s not just the daytime temperatures that will grab the weekend weather headlines (low-mid 90s), but the overnight lows will remain “oppressive,” as well (low-mid 70s) in what will be a very muggy air mass this weekend. “Air you can wear” will be an appropriate way to describe things this weekend around the entire Mid West. At times, heat indices will exceed the 100° mark. With an upper level ridge parked over the region, any storm coverage should be isolated at best. Most neighborhoods should remain free of rain or storms over the weekend.
Thankfully, even as the heat gets going in earnest, at least some slight relief is in sight. A cold front will approach the region early next week and increasing coverage of showers and thunderstorms should follow suit. We’ll forecast isolated to widely scattered coverage of storms Monday before better coverage (scattered to numerous) Tuesday. Some model data suggests the front will “stall out” over the Ohio Valley region which would keep high rain chances in our forecast into the middle and latter parts of next week. Stay tuned.
From this distance, late next week into the weekend looks seasonably warm and drier, overall.
Find a pool and stay cool this weekend, friends!

Hottest Air (So Far) This Season Arrives Over The Weekend…
A cold front is sinking south as we write this (6:45p) Wednesday evening. A couple of strong to severe storms have developed ahead of the boundary and if you’re reading this from the southern 1/3 of the state, remain weather aware this evening. Otherwise, a drier regime will arrive behind the boundary and at least temporarily lead to a more refreshing air mass for our Thursday. Those 50s sure will feel nice out the door Thursday morning!
Lows will fall into the middle 50s for many communities outside of the city Thursday morning.
Unfortunately, the nice and refreshing air won’t last long. A building hot dome (ridge of high pressure) will center itself over the Ohio Valley this weekend and help promote excessive heat. It’s not just the high temperatures that will reach dangerous levels (lower to middle 90s), but overnight lows will remain oppressive, as well (low to mid 70s). Heat indices will surge north of 100° at times. The ridge will also serve to limit storm chances this weekend- “isolated” coverage at best.
A cold front will drop south early next week and help increase overall coverage of showers and thunderstorms late Monday into Tuesday along with provide relief (at least temporary) from the hot, humid conditions. Temperatures will settle back closer to average by the middle of next week.
