Happy first day of August (the best month imo)! I’ve got a really stellar forecast for you today, minus the fire smoke. Unfortunately, a dip in the jet stream has allowed smoke from fires in Central Canada to spill southward. Air quality is slightly improved today vs yesterday but unfortunately, while the dip in the jet is bringing cooler temperatures it’s also bringing the smoke.

Highs today will reach the upper 70s under mostly sunny (but smoky) skies. There are indications that the haze will dissipate somewhat by the weekend, tho! Temps tomorrow and Sunday will max out right around 80F under brilliantly sunny skies! A Chamber of Commerce weekend y’all!! Personally I am definitely going to try to get a beach day in tomorrow or Sunday 🙂

Unfortunately, the surprise visit from autumn will be shortlived. Temps will begin climbing again on Monday and should be back in the 90s by the end of next week 😭. The chance of rain will remain quite low through the first week of August 🌞

Tl;dr - sunny and dry for the foreseeable future. High 79F today, but fire smoke lingers. 80s this wknd. Hot next wk!
