Hot, humid weather is on the way….Get ready for more hot weather to move in for the rest of the week. On Wednesday, high temperatures will be in the mid and upper 80s under a mix of sun and clouds. A few pop up showers and storms are possible by afternoon. Then, for the rest of the week, highs will soar into the low and mid 90s! Because of the humidity, though, it will feel much hotter. Some areas, in fact, we’ll see triple digit heat index values, so take your precautions now. A few more isolated showers and storms are possible Thursday and Friday. Rain chances go up by the weekend.
