Here’s your evening forecast for Wednesday, May 22nd, 2024.

A surface high is draped over the area, keeping rain chances minimal as we wrap up the work week and head into the weekend.

As this high persist, rain chances will stay limited at 10-20% through the rest of the work week into the Memorial Day weekend.

As for temperatures, morning lows will run in the mid to upper 70s. High temperatures will stay in the low to mid-90s. Factor in the humidity and it will feel more like the upper 90s through the rest of the work week.

Memorial Day weekend is looking to be very warm with heat index values around 100°. The best chance for a passing shower will be inland, if at all. If outdoor activities are the agenda for the holiday weekend remember to stay hydrated and take frequent breaks inside or in the shade.

Heading into next week, rain chances increase slightly as the surface high shifts out into the Atlantic and a trough aloft moves over the area, creating a weather pattern which will favor more shower activity.
