UPCOMING WEATHER PATTERN
Next week is shaping to be quite dynamic in the temperature ranges we’ll be experiencing. The lows tomorrow morning in the teens and lower 20s will give way to likely record highs in the low to mid 90s by the end of the week.
High pressure sets up to our west for most of this forecast period, leading to a spike in high temperatures and possibly seeing record high temps broken later this week(Dylan Smith)
That’s all thanks to an upper level high pressure system that will set up to our west for a few days, giving us a bit of time the pressure cooker and allowing those temperatures to soar.
