The National Weather Service has issued a Heat Advisory, which will remain in effect until 8 p.m. Tuesday. The advisory calls for heat index values to range between 100 and 104 degrees. The actual high is forecast to reach 98 degrees. Hot temperatures and high humidity levels will increase the threat of heat related health issues, the advisory said, but some relief was in sight.
“A cold front is expected to arrive tonight, bringing an end to the long stretch of excessively hot humid weather,” the NWS said, however the agency’s forecast shows hot weather will remain in place to some extent.
There will be a chance of showers and thunderstorms Tuesday night before 2 a.m., then a slight chance of showers. Rainfall may be heavy during some localized thunderstorms.
The high temperatures Wednesday, Thursday and Friday will be 87, 84 and 82 degrees, respectively – a far cry from 98, though still hot. Another round of storms is expected to move through the area Wednesday night into Thursday morning.
