Weather Stories
As the rain departs, we’re still left with humid and hot conditions Sunday and through much of next week. Another heatwave is expected Sunday to Wednesday, with feels-like temperatures near 100°.
There may be a break in the heat though, as signs point to a “cool down” at the tail end of the forecast period, where highs drop into the low 80s.
