Heat continues to hammer us this week. While air temperatures will peak Tuesday and Wednesday, the humidity will not let up for the foreseeable future.
That means the heat index will climb beyond the uncomfortable range and venture into dangerous territory. At times, it may feel like 100 degrees this afternoon. Take it slow, stay hydrated and seek A/C and shade.

We'll watch for thunderstorms, but the heaviest rain seems destined for the elevated terrain of western and northern New England. Flash flooding is the greatest concern with any of the storms or downpours that form.
Temps hold in the 80s for the next seven to 10 days, and the storm threat remains through Saturday.
