LATEST FORECAST Cedar Rapids, IA

Tonight: Partly Cloudy
Temps: 62-68
Wind: SE 5-10 mph

Friday: Scattered afternoon storms
Temps: 87-91
Wind: SE 5-10 mph

Summer weather is here and we will continue to see temperatures in the upper 80s and lower 90s and some pop-up storms around the area over the next few days.

TONIGHT//FRIDAY
Spotty storms this evening will wind down by 9 p.m. as we lose the heating of the day. We'll remain partly cloudy overnight with lows in the low/mid 60s.

Temperatures will be in the upper 80s to low 90s Friday. Southerly flow will be developing, leading to more humidity and moisture in place. That may lead to scattered showers and storms to develop in the afternoon and evening hours. These rain makers will be very short lived and will lose energy once the sun sets and daytime heating goes away. Pinning rain totals with this type of pattern is fairly difficult. Rain that does fall will be hit or miss, so not everyone will see the much needed precipitation.

THIS WEEKEND
The weekend remains sunny and hot with temperatures in the low 90s Saturday and upper 80s to low 90s Sunday. High pressure will continue to build back to the west so pop-up rain showers don't look as likely. Dewpoints will remain in the 50s so it could feel a little sticky outside at times.

NEXT WEEK
We'll remain in the upper 80s/low 90s Monday with a mainly sunny sky. Late Monday, a backdoor cold front is increasingly likely which may bring relief from the high temperatures and humidity, however highs will remain in the low/mid 80s. Rain chances are pretty low, or at least low confidence, next week.
