Heat index approaches 100 again today. Some rain is likely with the frontal passage, but the timing is a little uncertain.

Partly cloudy. Afternoon storm? Highs: Lows 90s.Scattered showers and storms, then clearing. Highs: Upper 80s to near 90.Don’t let the idea of a cool front — I couldn’t call it cold — fool you, we’re still mostly stuck in this midsummer pattern we’ve been dealing with. Given that it’s July, it probably makes some sense. Nonetheless, any days with highs below 90 continue to be few in the time ahead. A lower chance of thunderstorms today rises again tonight into Sunday.

Hot and humid conditions are well entrenched, and we’ll watch some clouds bubble up in the midday sun. A couple storms are possible in the afternoon, but they should be fewer than yesterday. With highs in the low 90s and dew points in the low 70s, heat index values may approach 100 during the afternoon. Confidence: HighShowers or storms could try to increase during the evening and into the night as activity works this way from the west.
