Dry Stretch Heating Up

SYNOPSIS – Limited cloud cover and lower humidity supplied a pleasantly warm afternoon for much of the Wiregrass today with high temperatures between the middle and upper 80s. We’ll be cool tonight under clear skies again as temperatures sink to the lower 60s. Dry air and highs in the lower 90s will stretch into the start of next week until rain-making moisture returns from the Gulf on Tuesday. Heavier cloud cover and isolated showers and thunderstorms mid-week will ease highs back to the middle and upper 80s.

TOMORROW – Mostly sunny. High near 92°. Winds W-NW at 5-10 mph.

TOMORROW NIGHT – Mostly clear. Low near 68°. Winds W at 5 mph.
