GETTING WARMER.  We’re headed into a super-warm weekend, with Saturday and Sunday’s highs hitting 101. On southern breezes, expect warm and windy to be the tale of the two-day stretch until things cool down into the 80s on Monday.  We talk about that and more in today’s Three Things.

THREE THINGS

 

FEEL THE HEAT. Bottle the next two days up and save them for January. After this weekend’s warmth, things dip back down into the 80s for a more comfortable work week.

 

DRYING OUT?  After a recharging set of spring and early summer rains, a slow creep of drier conditions has settled into the state.  The newest drought monitor shows a sneaking curl of abnormally dry conditions creeping down the Missouri River Valley once again.

 

EARLY BIRDS. The Early Canada Goose Management Hunting Season starts Aug. 15. Get ready now for the first fowl season of the sum…er…autumn!

Stay Sharp!
