After a brief period of high temps only getting into the mid-60s to low-70s, we're going to see them skyrocket for the next week or so.

According to Fox 47, some of the high temperatures we'll see are about 20 degrees warmer than the average for this time of year. By this time in September, we'd be experiencing highs hovering in the mid-70s. Next week, we'll see high temperatures close to the 90s.

Starting as early as today (Wednesday, Sept. 14th) we'll see high temperatures in the upper 70s. And for the next week, The Weather Channel is reporting that we won't see high temperatures drop below the 80s, with one of the hottest days being Tuesday, September 20th, with high temperatures estimated to be close to 90 degrees.

Warm Fall Temperatures

After just over a week of unseasonably warm fall temperatures, we'll see things drop down pretty drastically. High temperatures will get back down to the low 70s on Friday, after which, the high temperatures will be much more fall appropriate with highs only reaching the mid to high 60s.
