Local View.

This forecast has been updated, strong thunderstorm chances have been moved to Tuesday.

Locally, were looking at a Hot and Sticky next few days ahead, as temperatures sour into the summer-like upper 80s to even lower 90s Monday for the first time this season 90s would especially be true if we stay in sunshine most of the day. Tuesday will be in the mid to upper 80s, and it will remain humid. Monday looks to be hot and dry, Tuesday A front and system which has been moving back and forth the past couple days, will finally close in, Thunderstorms should form ahead of this front, although it’s still not complete sure where this will be, I’ve added it anyway. With a very humid air around Tuesday, some of the storms may have enough energy to be strong in the afternoon, Some could even be severe, but with some ingredients lacking, I’ve decided to go with mainly strong storms, with a severe storm or two possible, I’ve kept the areas highlighted above for the highest risk of severe storms. Wednesday a weak cold front passed through, with lingering shower and Thunderstorms chances, it will be humid at first, then with the passing of the cold front it should become less humid and more comfortable.

Monday, Hot and Humid, Partly Cloudy, a slight chance of a Thunderstorm, highs in the upper 80s to low 90s. Monday Night, Warm, Partly Cloudy, lows in the low 70s.
