Hot and Stormy Weather Remains in Our Forecast

(Undated) — Hot and stormy weather is in our forecast. According to the latest “Hazardous Weather Outlook” from the National Weather Service, a “multi-day” stretch of hot and humid weather will continue most of the week, bringing high temperatures in the low to mid-90s, low temperatures in the mid-70s, and afternoon heat indices frequently above 100 degrees. They say the prolonged nature of the heat and lack of “nighttime cooling” will increase the risk for heat-related illness for those without effective cooling or hydration. Scattered thunderstorms, especially during the afternoon hours, will be possible from Tuesday through Saturday. An isolated severe thunderstorm is possible, with the primary hazard being damaging wind gusts. A “Heat Advisory” remains in effect and has been extended through Thursday at 7 p.m.
