Heat indices well into the triple digits currently. A shower that lingered just north of the area about an hour ago has now dissipated, while another, smaller one, has developed just to the east. Cannot rule out a small shower over the site over the next hour or two, but ultimately think the area stays dry. Heat and humidity will continue throughout the weekend with little relief from isolated showers/storms tonight and Saturday. Rain chances bounce back a bit by Sunday, with even better chances on Monday, thanks to an approaching low pressure system. Fog potential for tonight is Low. .REST OF TODAY...
