- The heat index hit 97 on Tuesday as most of the area remains in a heat wave.
- The heat wave will continue into tomorrow and we will start seeing heat index values in the triple digits.
- A cold front will bring more relief by the weekend, causing temperatures to go back down to the mid-80s Sunday.
- It will start kicking up storm chances and clouds and that will help get that thermometer down for the rest of the week.
- There is still no “Lee” yet out in the open Atlantic, but the storm is expected to form either today or tomorrow.
- At this time, it will be parallel to the Carolina coastline by next Thursday or Friday.
We have more big heat to get through this week before we can start talking about a cool down. Tomorrow is likely the worst of it with highs in the mid 90s and a heat index at or above 100°. Those 80s should last well into next week. pic.twitter.com/eTrv6hvHwa
