HEATING UP!
Enjoy the refreshing air while it lasts. Tonight will be comfortable with temperatures dropping into the upper 50s and low 60s under a mostly clear sky.
Monday starts a stretch of much hotter weather. Expect bright skies and afternoon highs in the upper 80s. Humidity will begin to creep up during the day, and while most communities stay dry, an isolated pop-up shower or thunderstorm is possible during the afternoon. Many towns won’t see any rain.
The hottest weather of the week arrives Tuesday as temperatures climb into the upper 90s. Combined with increasing humidity, it will feel even hotter. There won’t be much relief Tuesday night either, with temperatures only falling to around 80 degrees in many locations.
The heat continues Wednesday with highs again reaching the upper 90s and muggy conditions sticking around throughout the day. If you have plans outdoors, be sure to stay hydrated, take breaks in the shade, and check on anyone without access to air conditioning.
SLOW RELIEF
Thursday remains hot with highs in the low 90s. Unlike some summer heat waves, we aren’t expecting widespread afternoon thunderstorms to provide much cooling this week, so the heat will be persistent for several days.
A welcome change arrives by the weekend as temperatures ease back into the mid 80s with lower humidity, making for much more comfortable conditions.
