Things are looking up for an easing of the heat by Sunday or Monday.
Computer models are coming into agreement that:
1) It will continue very hot with highs hovering near 100 (and Heat Indexes of 105-110) through Saturday.
2) The upper ridge will shift westward and weaken Sunday and Monday.
3) Northwesterly flow will push a frontal boundary our way which may provide a decent rain event next week.
Of course, this could all wind up being a “bust”, leaving us trapped in the heat as we enter July; but since there is good agreement among three of the major models (ECMWF, GFS, and NOGAPS), there’s a better than even money chance we’ll see at least a noticeable improvement and some rain possibilities too.
