Forecast
It was busy overnight for our friends across the southeast. Damage was likely significant for Florida and now parts of Georgia. Millions are without power and flooding remains a real concern for Georgia and the Carolinas. Helene will continue to weaken today as it gets pulled into an area of low pressure. Any impacts from Helene will stay well east of Texas.
For us, we’re going to be on repeat for a while. Low humidity continues to bring big swings in temperatures. We’re dipping into the mid-60s this morning, but will end up in the low to mid-90s this afternoon. You’ll see the same situation both Saturday and Sunday and for much of next week for that matter. Skies are forecast to stay clear.
Have a great weekend! — Justin
