Enjoyed gorgeous spring-like weather out there this week as we head into our last week of winter officially, spring arrives next Friday. Looking at our first major heatwave of the season with summer-like temperatures expected as highs climb 20-30 degrees above average through much of next week. Expect a few high clouds this evening with light winds as lows drop into the upper 20s and 30s. A weak onshore flow will develop this weekend as a trough passes inland to our north. This will hold temperatures back a bit with highs in the mid to upper 60s, while lows cool into the 30s. With the increased onshore flow, we will also experience west winds of 10-15 mph at times, especially during the afternoons. Strong high pressure will strengthen over the area next week, with a major warm-up expected. Daytime highs will reach the upper 60s to around 70 on Monday, warming to the mid-70s on Tuesday, before topping out around 80 midweek. Temperatures should come down a bit towards next weekend, but still well above normal as our forecast remains high and dry.
