Heat is making a comeback as a high-pressure ridge will move in and build over the eastern US. This will send temperatures soaring into the 90s, possibly as early as this weekend. We could push the mid-90s in areas by the start of next week. This will be coupled with low-level moisture this time, unlike when temperatures reached the 90s in March. That means not only will the thermometer have a high reading, but it will be humid as well.

Nice weather is expected through the end of the week. Highs should be in the low to mid 70s until the weekend, when we jump into the mid 80s.
Rain chances remain stray after a few showers on Wednesday night, and the next rain chances likely will not arrive until late next week. That could come with a cold front to help us cool down.

OVERNIGHT will be mostly clear and cool. The low will be 49. Winds will be out of the west at 5 to 10 miles per hour.
