A LOOK AHEAD: This weekend will be hot and mostly sunny, with temperatures soaring into the mid to upper 90's. There is a slight chance for afternoon showers and thunderstorms on Saturday and Sunday. The dome of high-pressure will remain anchored to the intermountain west through Monday, with high temperatures reaching the mid 90's under clear skies. A cool front on Tuesday will provide some relief from the heat. High temperatures are expected to be in the low 80's with another round of afternoon summer showers and thunderstorms.
