Updated the forecast highs for the weekend (in red). In two days, Fox has raised its forecast high for Saturday by a whopping 16 degrees. Most outlets have raised forecast high temps as well, but not to the degree that Fox has. However, interestingly enough, the late Strib update reflects skepticism that temps will get out of the 50s on Saturday, making it the only forecast to reverse the trend.
Forecasters are suggesting a thunderous weekend may be in store this weekend with the season's warmest temperatures to date. We're not sure exactly how to grade and assess such a forecast, but it's worth a discussion. So, discuss away.
