Unfortunately, our hot summer weather will continue through the week into the weekend, although there is some light at the end of the tunnel for next week. As high pressure once again strengthens across the region, temperatures will increase slightly through the end of the week. This ridge will settle over the Four Corners by the weekend, drawing monsoon moisture back into the area with cooler temps and possible afternoon thundershowers next week. Expect sunny skies through Wednesday as highs reach the mid to upper 80s, southwest winds 5-10 mph at times. Daytime highs will top out in the upper 80s, even near 90 degrees again Friday and Saturday, while overnight temps remain mild with lows in the 50s. The flow around high pressure should start to draw in mid and lower-level moisture through the end of the week. This will lead to some afternoon clouds, with a better for showers and storms developing by Sunday into at least early next week. Temperatures should also start to come back down next week thanks to increasing humidity associated with the monsoon flow.
