This Weekend:  Highs in the upper 80s Saturday and the lower 90s Sunday with humidity increasing on Sunday afternoon.  Overnight lows will go from the upper 60s to the lower 70s.

Next Week:  Moisture returns to the forecast on Monday afternoon along with clouds.  Daytime highs will remain in the lower 90s and overnight lows in the lower 70s.  Shower chances return to the forecast beginning Tuesday afternoon through Friday afternoon.
