Sunny, Pleasant Tuesday Ahead With High Near 85

Tuesday starts sunny and comfortable, with temperatures in the low 60s early and a light east wind around 2 to 7 mph. It is a quiet start with dry skies, and if you are heading out early, it will feel a little milder than the thermometer shows.

By afternoon, expect a mix of sun and passing clouds as the temperature climbs to a high near 85. Rain chances stay near zero through the day, and a light breeze out of the east-southeast will keep things moving without much of a punch. It may feel closer to 90 during the warmest part of the afternoon.

During the evening, skies turn partly cloudy while the air gets a bit more humid. Temperatures ease back through the 70s, and the dry pattern holds for any outdoor plans.

Overnight, expect partly cloudy skies and a calm, muggy finish as temperatures settle near the low of 66 by daybreak Wednesday. Winds stay light, and rain chances remain very low.

The allergy index is elevated today, with ragweed very high and grass high. Mold and tree pollen are low.

Wednesday looks warmer and more humid, with a high near 89 and a low around 64. A thunderstorm could pop up late in the afternoon and linger into early evening, so keep an eye on the sky later in the day.
