Pretty standard early-August fare is in order for the weekend (weather-wise, anyway). Expect to start Saturday in the mid-70s under partly cloudy skies, with highs heading into the low 90s in the afternoon. Isolated to scattered showers and thunderstorms will be possible, though it’s worth noting that Friday afternoon’s high-resolution models keep coverage pretty sparse across the Tri-County. It’s conceivable that some folks may not see a drop of rain — altogether not the worst thing after a fairly wet Friday.

Expect more of the same on Sunday with temperatures heading a couple degrees warmer than Saturday as a nearby front washes out. Heat indices will push 100° in the afternoon with another chance of a few afternoon and evening thunderstorms. Like Saturday, widespread rain is currently not anticipated — just be ready to bring outdoor activities inside in case thunderstorms approach.
