The heat will begin to build into the area today as high pressure dominates the surface. I expect clear skies and temperatures in the upper 80s to lower 90s. The temperatures increase as we move into the weekend with parts of the region making it into the 100s. This trend of 90s and 100s does not look to end anytime soon with long range models indicating zonal flow (meaning no troughs which help to produce precipitation and changes in temperature). If you are going to be outside remember to drink plenty of water and limit time outside.
