A ridge of high pressure remains strong over the southeast keeping temperatures well above average this weekend. 

What You Need To Know

  • Partly cloudy and very warm on Saturday

  • Showers and storms increase west-to-east late Sunday afternoon

  • Temperatures will be well above average both days

Outdoor plans appear to be safe for much of the weekend, but practice heat safety tips as we are not yet acclimated to what will be a preview to early summer.
