Wildfire smoke lingers tonight with below average temperatures this weekend

What We’re Tracking

• Great weather through Saturday

Wildfire smoke from Canada will linger into the overnight hours as winds from the northeast continue to drag in the smoke. Air quality will remain unhealthy for sensitive groups through tonight. Temperatures tonight fall to a chilly upper 50s with widespread haze and areas of smoke lingering into our weekend.

Temperatures through our weekend will continue to trend below average, topping off in the lower 80s for both Saturday and Sunday. Areas of smoke will create a hazy look to our mostly sunny sky for Saturday. Thankfully the smoke will mix out as winds shift direction come Saturday night.

Sunday will bring our best chance of a few storms. However, not all seeing the rain, as the storms will be mostly isolated. Cooler temperatures will stick around to kick off the work week.

By the middle of the week, temperatures will gradually warm back into the lower 90s, nearing average for early August.
