Oh yeah, it's still gonna be hot, but NO HEAT ADVISORIES in store for the state for the first time in...well, a long time. It'll be hot for the next few days until we see that front come to fruition on Friday.

It's that more powerful front early next week that could take us down to Pumpkin Spice Madness territory, however, with highs in the 70s and lows in the 50s and lower 60s. I'm not really a fan of that type of weather, but I am a fan of change when the weather gets stagnant. And don't forget we do need the rain.

That all starts on Thursday and continues off and on through early next week. *IF* it happens, of course. I'm much more bullish on the temps than I am the rainfall, but we'll see.
And don't forget...there are worse things out there than heat and drought.
