Mid-October warming trend begins

A building ridge of high pressure will continue to push temperatures up to 10°+ above the seasonal average (92°) through the upcoming work week.

Conditions are expected to remain dry through the week. Luckily, evaporative and swamp coolers are likely to be effective if you're trying to beat the heat.

Here's a look at dewpoint temperatures at approximately 6:37 a.m.

Temperatures will hit the triple digits by Monday. At this time, Wednesday looks to be the warmest day of the week with a daytime high temperature of 103°. A return to the 90s is expected for next weekend.
