Heat Advisory Continues as Monday Turns Hot, Humid and Partly Sunny

Monday starts sunny and quiet, with temperatures around 69 degrees early and a light northeast breeze. The air already feels a little warmer than the thermometer shows, and humidity will be hard to ignore from the start.

By afternoon, expect partly sunny skies as the temperature climbs to a high of 92. South winds stay light near 6 mph, but the bigger story is the heat. It could feel like 105 at the hottest part of the day, so outdoor plans may need extra water and a few breaks. Rain chances stay low at 25 percent.

During the evening, the heat eases only a little as skies turn partly cloudy. Conditions stay warm and muggy, with a slow drop after sunset.

Overnight, the low settles near 76 under partly cloudy skies. A light south-southwest breeze continues, and the chance of rain remains low.

A Heat Advisory remains in effect through Tuesday evening. The National Weather Service warns that heat index values could reach 108, which may increase the risk of heat-related illness.

The allergy index is low today. Main allergens include mold, ragweed, tree pollen and grass, all at low levels.

Tuesday brings a high of 92 and a low of 66, with a morning thunderstorm possible before hot conditions continue through the rest of the day.
