Meteorologist George Waldenberger said Sanford/Leesburg can hit records three days in a row.

Dry weather will mainly persist, so we’ll also monitor the risk of brushfires.

Thursday looks to be the hottest, near 100 degrees in some inland spots.

Stay cool.

A weak front arrives Saturday, bringing the temps back down to around 90, but not much of a cooldown.

Mother’s Day looks nice in the upper 80s.

Then another front early next week should cool things down into the lower 80s and may introduce a much wetter week of weather.

Not a bad thing, as we need rain.
