The next round of heat is here. Humidity levels stayed high all weekend long and temps warmed up on Sunday around 90 in some locations. that heat will stay with us to start the new work week on Monday and Tuesday with highs reaching the upper 80s to around 90. Then a cold front arrives and drops the highs in the 70s for the second half of the week through the weekend.
Humidity levels will stay very high Monday and Tuesday in the tropical category and at times feeling pretty miserable. The dew points start to drop for Wednesday in the low 60s but still some noticeable humidity Wednesday morning before comfy air returns for the rest of the week.
The combination of the heat and humidity will push feels like temps around 100 in many areas for Monday afternoon and evening.
