Last Map Update: Mon, Apr 27, 2026 at 3:52:18 am CDT

There are no watches, warnings, or advisories at this time.

Temperatures will continue to increase through the weekend and into the early part of next week. Temperatures will be as much as 15 degrees above normal and there is a high probability that we have heat related concerns especially Monday through Wednesday. Plan ahead to adjust outdoor activities as necessary. Heat index values as high as 110 are possible which are especially impactful early in the season when we are not adapted to it.
Tonight, we'll see mostly cloudy skies with lows mainly in the 70s.
Above normal temperatures and dry conditions continue through mid-week. By late in the week a cold front will move into the area cooling temperatures a few degrees and bringing a chance for rain on Friday.
