Heat Cranks Up

After a wet and stormy weekend at times, the atmospheric heater is about to kick into high gear. An expanding upper level ridge centered to our west will push the main storm track back to the north and east which will not allow for any thunderstorm relief today. We may see a few higher clouds at times today, but there won't be enough of them to block out the sun. I'm not biting off on the very warm MOS guidance as low level temperatures don't support highs that warm, but I will forecast an afternoon high of 94. With dew points in the lower 70's today, the temperature will feel even warmer than that so make sure you take it easy and drink plenty of water if you'll be outside today. Skies should be clear this evening, but temperatures will only bottom out near 72 tomorrow morning.
