Weather Update: Outlook the next 2 days

We're warming up as we head into the end of the week, and many areas could see mid 90s by Friday and Saturday. The humidity won't be as bad as what we saw last week though.

Those of you near and north of I-70 could see a few showers or storms late tonight and early Friday, but rain shouldn't be too heavy and we're not looking at any strong storms.
