Meteorologist Myles Henderson’s First Warning Forecast
Several chances for showers and storms through midweek. A break from the heat and humidity for the second half of the week.
A slow-moving cold front will slide through the region today and tomorrow. Expect mostly cloudy skies with on and off showers and storms. Some storms could be strong to severe with localized flooding and gusty winds. Highs will only reach the mid to upper 80s today, but it will still be humid.
Changes move in behind the cold front. Highs will drop to the low 80s and the humidity will come down starting Thursday. We will still have some leftover showers/storms on Thursday and even Friday, but rain chances should gradually drop to end the week.
Highs will remain in the low to mid 80s this weekend with a break in the humidity. Expect partly cloudy skies with an isolated shower/storm possible.
