High pressure will keep us sunny and comfortable through the rest of the week and the upcoming weekend. Today will be sunny with highs ranging from the mid 70s in Sioux Falls to the upper 70s along the James Valley to the low 80s across Central and Western South Dakota. That is just slightly below our average high temperature for this time of year.

The weekend will be about the same with plenty of sunshine and high temps in the 70s. Central and Western South Dakota will be a bit warmer with highs reaching the mid 80s by Sunday.

The one and only chance of rain on the 7 Day Forecast will come in the form of scattered showers and thunderstorms late Sunday and Sunday night across Central and Northern South Dakota.

Our pattern will begin to shift early next week as southerly flow brings back the heat and humidity. By next Tuesday and Wednesday high temps return to the upper 70s to low 80s in Sioux Falls while much of Central and Western South Dakota soar back into the 90s.
