One more extremely hot and humid day before a cooling trend takes place
The heat will stick around into Wednesday and part of Thursday. Highs near 100° and a heat index above 105° is expected for Wednesday, but a gradual cooling is expected as we head toward the end of the week.
We've been dominated by a ridge of high pressure, but that looks to change up on us as we head toward the weekend. Highs will be closer to 90° by the end of the week with slight chances for storms continuing for most days. Many areas over the next few days will stay dry, though.
The better set up for unsettled weather and subsequent storm chances will be late Saturday as a stronger push of cooler air moves in. Temperatures may only top out in the 80s by Sunday and Monday as a true break in the heat will stick around for a few days, even into parts of next week
