There is going to be fog forming in the area tomorrow in the early morning, this fog will dissipate by 10 AM. High temperatures will also be in the 80s for the foreseeable future for the majority of the region, seeing highs temperatures tomorrow in the low to mid 80s in the lowlands and the low 70s in the higher elevations. These highs will steadily rise throughout next week, seeing them get into the high 80s to low 90s in the lowlands and the high 70s in the higher elevations by Thursday.
