High temperatures will reach the high 80s and low 90s. Lack of wind is also leading to reduced air quality, largely due to a build up of ground level ozone. Anticipate poor air quality for the next few days, so sensitive respiratory groups might want to limit outdoor time and strenuous activities.
We have a decent chance of seeing the arrival of some wet weather by Wednesday night, but these could also be accompanied by storms. This lingers into Thursday as well before the return to hot and summerlike weather for the end of the work week.
OVERNIGHT: Lows in the low 70s. Mostly clear with a few high clouds.
TUESDAY: Hot and dry. Highs in the high 80s and low 90s, lows in the mid-70s.
WEDNESDAY: Mostly sunny start with evening shower and storm chances. Highs in the high 80s and low 90s, lows in the middle 70s.
THURSDAY: Chance of some lingering showers into the first half. Then clearer and drier. Highs in the high 80s, lows in the low 70s.
FRIDAY: Return to sunshine! highs in the high 80s, lows in the low 70s.
