Intense summer heat is expected to continue, with high temperatures forecast through the weekend and into next week. Storms are developing over higher terrain, but conditions are not favorable for them to persist as they move to lower areas. Gusty outflow winds are a concern.

Thunderstorm activity is seen in certain mountainous regions, where conditions allow for scattered convection. However, these storms are unlikely to survive as they move away from these areas.

Further information on the weather forecast is available from ABC-7 StormTrack Weather, including details on storm coverage and temperature expectations.
