We enter the month of August with much more appropriate, summer weather and temperatures to match. High pressure over the eastern half of the country dictates the weather this week, with plenty of sun and temperatures finally in the normal to above normal range in the mid-upper 80s. Humidity increases and results in daily afternoon chances for showers and thunderstorms.

Rest of today – sunny with high temperatures in the mid-80s.

Tuesday – warmer, sunny with high temperatures in the upper-80s to near 90°F.

Wednesday – similar picture to Tuesday with highs in the upper-80s to around 90 °F, chance for an afternoon shower or thunderstorm.

Thursday – cooler with temperatures back in the mid-80s range and another chance for thunderstorms in the afternoon.
