June kicks off on a hot note on Thursday with the core of the heat associated with an upper ridge over our area, helping warm us up into the 30s for the second time this year!
A trough of low pressure will sneak in as the ridge starts to move out later in the day, which will allow clouds to move in with a chance of late day showers and thunderstorms.
