Home Runs and High Heat in the Red River Valley
The metro is heating up for a busy weekend of local entertainment. While the temperatures are set to soar near the century mark, the schedule remains packed with a strong weekend score for baseball fans and concert-goers alike. Whether you are heading to Newman Outdoor Field or staying in the AC for a new blockbuster, there is plenty to track.
Prepare for a sweltering weekend with highs climbing from the upper 80s to near 100 degrees by Sunday. While light drizzle is possible on Friday and Saturday, the best window for outdoor activities is late Saturday afternoon when skies clear.
