Weather: Check forecast for Cincinnati Open; Voices of America Country Music Festival
A mostly dry day is forecast for Monday, Aug. 4, according to the National Weather Service office in Wilmington. However, some scattered to isolated showers and thunderstorms will be possible mainly over Northern Kentucky and southeastern Indiana.
Some showers and storms may linger overnight, but should be very isolated if they occur.
Expect highs in the low 80s with dewpoints in the low 60s. Greater Cincinnati should see a similar forecast on Tuesday, Aug. 5, for the start of the Cincinnati Open, which will be held at the Lindner Family Tennis Center in Mason through Aug. 18.
Showers are slated to persist through the early morning hours on Aug. 5, especially in southwest areas. Then sunshine is likely to return for the afternoon.
Some weak instability will develop on Wednesday, Aug. 6, which may lead to a few showers and thunderstorms, mainly during the afternoon into early evening. Highs will be in the low to mid-80s.
A gradual warming trend with daytime highs in the mid- to upper 80s will occur by the end of the week for the Voices of America Country Music Festival, held in West Chester Township Aug. 7-10. Showers or thunderstorms cannot be ruled out each day, but precipitation chances appear low enough that we will likely experience mainly dry conditions.

As Canyon fire winds down, heat wave bears down on Southern California
As Southern California continued to experience a heat wave, officials on Saturday lifted the final evacuation orders in areas affected by the Canyon fire, which has burned more than 5,000 acres in northern Los Angeles and Ventura counties. With the fire about 28% contained, overnight fire activity was 'minimal' and crews worked to further secure the perimeter, protect structures and look for hot spots, according to the Los Angeles County Fire Department. The Canyon fire broke out Thursday northeast of Piru in Ventura County. By Thursday night, it had surged to 5,000 acres, triggering evacuations and advancing toward Castaic Lake and Interstate 5. The cause is under investigation. Battalion Chief James Agee of the Kern County Fire Department was seriously injured Friday when the pickup truck he was driving rolled over in the Romero Canyon area, where he was involved in the Canyon fire operations. Agee was airlifted to Henry Mayo Hospital in Newhall. 'James is a strong man with a big heart, and we know he's facing this challenge with the same strength and character he's shown throughout his career,' said Kern County Fire Chief Aaron Duncan in a statement. 'We are grateful for the swift actions of our crews and partner agencies, and for the kindness being shown to his family.' The region's hot spell hampered efforts to quell the fire, triggering poor air conditions, according to the National Weather Service. Inland valley areas were expected to see triple-digit temperatures throughout the weekend, with forecast highs of 106 in Lancaster and 103 in Northridge, according to the National Weather Service. Inland Empire communities could expect temperatures between 97 and 104 degrees, with a heat advisory lifting by 8 p.m. Monday. 'There is a moderate risk for heat related illnesses for vulnerable populations, and any fire starts in interior areas could grow rapidly, as we saw with the Canyon Fire on Thursday,' the National Weather Service said on X. 'Stay hydrated if you have to be out in the heat, and avoid anything that could create a spark.'

NEXT Weather Forecast: Quiet weather pattern expected for Saturday and Sunday
With severe weather now out of the Twin Cities and surrounding areas, we're in store for calmer and slightly cooler afternoon temperatures on Saturday. Rainfall totals reached 2.5" in Lino Lakes to just over half an inch in Wadena. Clouds will gradually clear throughout the day, and temperatures are expected to reach the low to mid-80s. That trend will repeat on Sunday, with a mix of sun and clouds. However, Sunday could start off foggy, and wildfire smoke from Canada will return due to northwest winds. The start of the work week should be similar as well, with lingering wildfire smoke. Temperatures will stay warm - in the mid-80s - for most of the week before climbing slightly higher to head into next weekend. In addition, more storms will be possible to end the work week.
