The mercury is going to climb this weekend and the temperature could hit nearly 100 degrees by Monday.
The temperature will be in the 70s on Friday, the coolest day between now and Tuesday.
The mercury will rise into the mid-80s on Saturday and forecasters say it could be in the low 90s on Sunday.
But Monday is the day forecasters are eyeing. They say the temperature could rise to 98 degrees during the day on Monday.
The steady climb in temperature should end there, though. Forecasters say the mercury should drop into the high 70s on Tuesday.
As for Friday, morning showers should give way to at least a partly cloudy sky on Friday.
The daytime temperature is expected to rise into the mid-70s during the day before dropping onto the 50s overnight.
