Heat Advisory Through Friday, The Weekend Brings A Slight Cooldown

Wednesday Night Update

June 25, 2025

Brian Davis,

Dangerous heat will be with us through Friday evening. A heat advisory will remain in effect through 9 pm Friday. The combination of high temperatures, high amounts of moisture in the air (humidity), and the lack of much of a breeze will make for a dangerous heatwave through Friday evening. There is a little bit of good news for the weekend ahead. Temperatures will return more near the 90 degree mark for highs and the high pressure that has been keeping us in a heat dome will finally start to weaken and move away to the southeast. This will increase our chances of storms along the ridge of the high where storms like to develop in the summertime.

This should allow better chances of showers and storms into the weekend along a noticeable cooldown. Even areas that might not get rain will likely benefit from the outflow from nearby storms to help keep things cooler. Storms will get more concentrated into the second half of the weekend with rain chances returning to around 50% on Sunday, much higher odds than we’ve had in several days.

In the meantime, Continue to use caution as the heat advisory remains in place until 9 pm Friday night.

Make sure to remember to hydrate and take plenty of breaks when outside. If you wait until you feel thirsty, you have waited to long, so make sure to get plenty of clear liquids.

In short, they will put down very heavy rain in short order hyper-locally, some locations will easily pick up between 1-3 inches of rain. But I want to emphasis this will be hyperlocal not everyone will receive rain today!

Another hot day again tomorrow as we stay under the heat dome of high pressure over the region. We will finally see some relief into the weekend, but not much. We’ll finally return to lower 90s in most areas and rain chances will climb to around 30% on Saturday to around 50% on Sunday. Better rain chances will arrive next Monday with odds around 60% each afternoon through next Wednesday as it looks right now. Long range forecast trends are indicating we could actually see some upper 80s for a change into parts of next week! Stay with the WBBJ 7 Storm Team for the latest on the heat situation as well as how much rain we may get late week.
