After a mild start to the week, we start to warm up on Tuesday with highs nearing 90 degrees. By Wednesday and Thursday, we’ll start seeing highs very close to the triple digits! Storms chances are out there for Wednesday and Thursday, but weather models are not in agreement for timing and placement, so we’ll keep an eye on that for now.

The dew point will be something to watch, as well. With temperatures in the 90s, any dew point above 60 degrees will add a little to the heat index. Take it easy if you need to be outside for too long!
