🔥 I sound like a broken record, but it seems people are just assuming that there is no wildfire risk based on the messages I am getting. There remains a very high risk of wildfires, and will be for the foreseeable future, some days higher then others, but the common theme is things are dry and the drought is getting worse there is really no significant rainfall expected over the next 7-10 days and even beyond that things are not very set in stone that storms and rain chances

An early taste of summer is on the way next week, with well-above-average temperatures expected and record highs possible at times! Highs next week will be in the 80s and 90s for most of the state, with little to 0 rain expected over the next 7 days. Hot and sunny will be the theme, and increased wildfire danger will remain around until further notice! -Ethan

On Friday, near-record high temperatures are expected ahead of a cold front. We will finally have a limited chance of rain Friday evening into the overnight hours as a cold front moves in; a couple of scattered showers, or even a thunderstorm with gusty winds, will be possible. I am not expecting everyone to get rain; it'll be scattered, but I included a couple of future radar models below to show you the front's progress.

Yes, there is potential for another round of light snow/sleet mid-week in parts of the state.
