Soak up the gorgeous, mild sunshine today! We're tracking hotter temps, smoky skies and fire danger for the Fourth of July. FOX13
Today will be summer perfection: highs will reach the mid to upper 70s for most under sunny skies. It'll be slightly breezy this afternoon.
Even though winds at the surface will be coming from the northeast Tuesday through Thursday morning, winds near the ground won't likely be strong enough to drag in smoke from the large fires burning to our north. On Wednesday, the weather pattern changes in our favor. Winds in the high levels of the atmosphere will switch to come from the west. This will usher in clean air from the Pacific and will help push smoke out of our backyard.
Another big part of the weather story this week will the moderate risk for heat-related illnesses Tuesday and Wednesday. The good news is that overnight temperatures will recover decently enough to prevent this from being a major event. Still, take precautions to stay cool. Head into a building with A/C to give your system a break, stay hydrated and check on the beloved senior citizens in your life.
