Sunday Midday Update: Extreme Heat Warning Monday afternoon into Tuesday evening
Update as of 12:30 PM Sunday, June 28th...
The entire area is now under an Extreme Heat Warning from Monday afternoon until early Tuesday evening. Heat indices will reach 105 degrees during the day (or higher). Even at night, it'll be oppressive with heat indices near 80 degrees! Make sure to limit your time outside and stay hydrated. This includes the pets too. The upcoming heat wave looks to last into the holiday weekend when there appears to be some relief with scattered storms. Stay tuned to CBS 58 for the latest weather updates.

MILWAUKEE (CBS 58)--Temperatures and humidity take off after Sunday. Sunday's highs will be in the upper 70s for many. As a warm front lifts north, we have a chance for a few showers and storms, mainly north and west of the metro. This takes us into Monday morning. In the wake of the front, it'll feel rather oppressive. There's an Extreme Heat Watch for most of the area Monday afternoon into Tuesday mid-morning except Milwaukee, Ozaukee, and Sheboygan Counties as it stands now. This means the "real feel" temperature will be near 105 during the day and around 75 degrees overnight. I don't really see a relief in sight until Saturday, July 4th. Then, we're talking temps well in the 80s. Of course the rain and storm chance will increase by Thursday and linger through most of the holiday weekend.
