CHARLOTTE — FORECAST:

• A bit warmer Tuesday morning but it will be hotter this afternoon. Highs return to the mid-90s with full sunshine.
• Tuesday will be the hottest day since we hit 94 degrees back on Aug. 2. The heat index won’t be a major issue, but it will climb to near or above 100 degrees on Wednesday and Thursday.
• As the extra heat and humidity build in, better storm chances return. These will just be heat of the day variety with the best chances coming in this weekend. A weak front on Sunday could bring in higher chances.
• Temps will cool down for Labor Day Weekend with highs back down to just near 90 degrees.
