4th of July Forecast
Independence Day Climatology
Month in Review: June 2025
It's going to be a hot 4th of July around the area, with lowland highs around or a bit above 90 degrees, and the mountains peaking in the mid-70s to mid-80s. The humidity won't be horrible, but it'll still make it feel a few degrees hotter. If you've got some outdoor festivities planned, remember to HYDRATE, and don't push it too hard. We'll be clear and dry for fireworks tonight, with temperatures in the 70s to around 80 degrees when most fireworks shows might be happening.
