FOX 26 meteorologist Allison Gargaro talks about the warm weather this weekend and the reason behind our hazy skies.

This weekend, we're looking for afternoon high temperatures to range from around 95-100 inland and near 90 along the coast. This heat comes along with heat index (feels like) values as high as 105. The sky will likely appear hazy by sunset Friday and we could get interesting-looking sunrises and sunsets this weekend. At this point, major changes to air quality are not expected, but the combination of ozone and light dust could raise air quality ratings from moderate to "unhealthy for sensitive groups".

As the Saharan dust approaches SE Texas this weekend, we're looking for afternoon high temperatures to range from around 95-100 inland and near 90 along the coast.

The Atlantic Basin remains quiet for the start of hurricane season. The Saharan Dust continues to roll thick off the African coast helping to stifle any development. The Eastern Pacific Ocean looks very active over the next week or two.
