Hot and dry conditions are expected for our Memorial Day weekend and into next week. The majority of us can expect highs in the 90s to near 105 degrees and abundant sunshine. Lows will be warm overnight in the 70s, closer to 80 degrees along the coast.
Also, if your Memorial Day plans include spending some time at the beach you may want to be aware that there will be an increased risk of dangerous rip currents along our Gulf-facing beaches through the holiday weekend and into early next week. Remember, if you are ever caught in a rip current DO NOT FIGHT IT. Instead, swim parallel to the coast, or wave and yell for help. Fighting against rip currents is oftentimes fruitless and can wear out even a strong swimmer.
