Temperatures will climb into the low 90s through Wednesday, while a growing chance of thunderstorms could disrupt midweek plans across the forecast area.
Tonight will offer a quiet start, with partly cloudy skies and a low near 70 degrees. Southeast winds will remain light at about 5 mph.
Tuesday will be mostly sunny and hot. The high is expected to reach 93 degrees, with southeast winds ranging from 5 to 15 mph. Tuesday night will stay mostly clear and warm, with a low near 73.
Heat Builds Through Tuesday
The forecast shows little daytime relief Tuesday. A high of 93 degrees can feel taxing, especially for people working or exercising outside.
Tuesday’s sunshine may also heat cars and buildings quickly. Children and pets should never be left in parked vehicles, even for a short errand.
Residents planning outdoor work may find the morning more comfortable. Frequent breaks, light clothing and water can help reduce heat-related strain later in the day.
Tuesday is expected to be “mostly sunny,” with a high near 93 degrees and southeast winds of 5 to 15 mph.
The overnight low of 73 means homes may cool slowly Tuesday night. That warmth will give Wednesday a head start, helping temperatures return to 93 degrees.
Storm Risk Increases Wednesday
Wednesday will begin partly cloudy, with a 20% chance of showers and thunderstorms. The forecast does not promise rain, but it keeps isolated storms on the table.
South winds will strengthen to 10 to 15 mph, with gusts reaching 25 mph. Gusty conditions could affect lightweight outdoor items before any thunderstorm develops.
The rain chance rises to 40% Wednesday night as skies become mostly cloudy. The low will remain unusually warm at about 75 degrees.
- Tonight: Partly cloudy, low near 70.
- Tuesday: Mostly sunny, high near 93.
- Wednesday: Partly cloudy, with a 20% storm chance.
- Wednesday night: Mostly cloudy, with a 40% storm chance.
A 40% chance does not mean rain will last for 40% of the night. It indicates a higher likelihood that measurable precipitation will occur somewhere within the forecast area.
Planning Around Heat and Thunder
The timing matters for commuters, outdoor workers and event organizers. Tuesday offers the clearest weather window, though heat will be the main concern.
Wednesday carries more uncertainty. Storms can form unevenly, leaving one community wet while another stays dry. Lightning may also reach areas outside the heaviest rain.
Anyone with outdoor plans should check updated forecasts on Wednesday. If thunder is heard, moving indoors is the safest choice. Loose furniture and decorations should also be secured because of the stronger wind gusts.
The main story is a one-two punch of persistent heat and rising storm chances. Tuesday appears hot but quiet. By Wednesday night, clouds and thunderstorms become more likely, while temperatures remain firmly in summer territory.
