Drought worsening but rain expected for the weekend

Today: The high heat continues for Muncie. It will be 89 degrees with light to no wind. It should be a great day for the outdoors but make sure to have plenty of water with the dry air.

Tonight: The low will be 56 degrees with little to no wind. The temperature will decline sharply. It should be a perfect evening to open the windows and relax from the heat.

Tomorrow: Make sure to not dress too warm in the morning. It will be another hot day with clear skies. The sun will be intense with little relief. Dry air should make the shade somewhat comfortable.

Seven-Day Forecast: The heat and sun of this week will fade this weekend. Expect to see clouds and rain roll in for the next week. Monday will see the highest chance of rain, hopefully beginning to ease our drought conditions.
