High pressure will build in from the Atlantic, keeping rain chances very low over the next several days.

High temperatures will surge into the mid- to upper 90s to close out the workweek, flirting with record highs.

Rain chances hold at 20% from Friday through the upcoming weekend as drier air continues to infiltrate the Sunshine State.

The tropics remain quiet with no new development expected over the next five days.
