The forecast from FOX 17 Weather Ready Meteorologist Kara James: Dew points are gradually climbing as we head into the holiday weekend, with plenty of heat to build in as well! The 4th of July looks mostly dry and hot, with isolated mid-morning showers and afternoon thunderstorms possible. Any thunderstorms will wind down by sunset, meaning the fireworks forecast is clear! Thunderstorm chances are building for the weekend, with the best opportunity Sunday P.M. and night as a weakening cold front moves in (but some areas may get missed again). Watch for feels like temperatures in the mid to upper 90s Friday and Saturday! Stay tuned to the FOX 17 Weather Ready Team for your latest forecast updates.
