We'll round out the week with sunshine and highs around 90 degrees.  A cold front will approach late in the day and could trigger a few showers and storms. There is the chance for a few isolated strong to severe storms, which is why our team is on a Storm Alert for the afternoon and evening hours. Damaging winds are the greatest threat in any storms that develop. Keep this in mind if you have outdoor plans Friday evening.

Father's Day is looking wonderful for anything you have planned with dad. After a cooler start in the 50s for many, high temperatures will be comfortably warm in the mid 80s. With low humidity, weather will look and feel great for anything outdoors! 

NEXT WEEK:
The summer solstice occurs on Thursday and Mother Nature is turning up the heat! Expect high temperatures well into the 90s every single day next week. With higher humidity levels, feels-like temperatures will be around 100 (or higher) degrees, which may result in heat alerts. This will be the first persistent heat wave of the year, so make sure you are getting ready for the heat by checking your air conditioning and air filters. Cooling centers will be available and our 7News team will be sure to update you with locations and more.
