Temperatures rose more than 30 degrees from this morning's lows to the afternoon highs. Similar swings will continue into next week as the drier air allows for quicker heating in the morning and cooling at night. Daily highs will reach the low/mid 80s, while lows fall to the 50s.

Dew point temperature is one of many ways to measure moisture at the surface. With low dew points in the 50s, temperatures are able to rise quickly in the morning and fall just as quickly at night. Clear sky also aids in this feature, called radiational heating and cooling.
