Here is the forecast for Tuesday, May 15th, 2025.
After a healthy soaking rain early in the week, drought conditions have improved, according to this morning's USGS Drought Monitor.
The bad news is that the improved drought conditions aren't expected to last. The only chance for rain we have in the 7-day forecast is an isolated rain chance arriving next Thursday into Friday.
Overall, we are expecting drier and hotter-than-average conditions to wrap up the month of May.
For tonight, mostly clear skies are forecast with lows falling back in the upper 60s inland and low 70s along the coast with calm winds.
Friday and the weekend will feature lots of sunshine and great weather for outdoor plans, but watch the heat!
HEADS UP FOR THE HEAT! Higher dew points will lead to hotter heat index values, also known as "feels like" temperatures. Many communities, especially inland, will feel more like the upper 90s, 100°+ Friday afternoon. #flwx pic.twitter.com/LXWrA9qDeI
