For the end of the work week, the temperatures will be down, and the rain chances will be high. In fact, for today, the highs might not get above 80, depending on the extent of the precipitation and cloud cover. The NAM and GFS models disagree on the temperatures, as the NAM forecasts more rain and lower temperatures than the GFS, so temperatures may be higher or lower depending on which model is correct.
The rain chances remain high tomorrow, with showers and thunderstorms forecast. The highs should stay below 90 on this day as well.
Starting this weekend, the temperatures go up again, and the rain chances go down. This continues into Monday, with Monday being the hottest day in this forecast period. Highs may reach the mid 90s, and the heat index may get into the upper 90s. Note that the map below is probably slightly higher than the actual heat index, as the GFS tends to overestimate temperatures in the Southeast during summer.
On Tuesday, a trough digs into the area, and an associated cold front moves in. The highs dip down to 90 or so, and the lows might dip below 70 on Tuesday and Wednesday. Additionally, on Wednesday, the humidity is low, which will make the weather much more pleasant than the typical summer day for this area.
