Today brings a warm summer day with a mix of sunshine and increasing clouds. Expect highs in the upper 80s, grab the sunglasses and sunscreen when heading outside!

Looking ahead, the big story is the heat. Tuesday and Wednesday will be the hottest days of the week, with temperatures soaring into the upper 90s and even near 100 degrees in some locations. Heat indices will make it feel even hotter, so stay hydrated, limit strenuous outdoor activities during the afternoon, and check on vulnerable neighbors.

By Thursday and Friday, temperatures ease back into the upper 80s with lower humidity, making for a more comfortable finish to the workweek. The weekend looks warm with a return of scattered thunderstorms, especially Saturday afternoon, before a mix of clouds and sunshine on Sunday.
