The heat has reigned on yet again and today makes it 7 days in a row with a high of 90° or warmer. That hasn't happened since July of 2020. More interesting, we haven't had a stretch of 7-days in a row of 90-degrees in the month of June since 2004.
Our high of 94° today makes it the 7th straight day of 90°+! That hasn't happened in Cincinnati since July of 2020... However, the last time we had a stretch like that in June? 2005!! (June 24-30) #wcpo @wcpo #cincywx #ohwx pic.twitter.com/4ivcEWZCN2

Tonight will stay warm with temperature only falling into the mid 70s. We expect a low near 74° with mostly clear skies. Winds from the south keep humidity high into Sunday morning.
Sunday is finally the day when we will see some small changes. Humidity will stay high to start the day as clouds build through the morning. A cold front will move in from the northwest and bring in the potential for some scattered showers and storms. The best timing for this looks to be 8 a.m and 4 p.m.
There won't be too much rainfall with these storms, but some areas could see a tenth or two. The showers and the clouds should wrap up by the mid-afternoon and from there we will see some clearing clouds. Temperature will still be hot, climbing into the upper 80s. We expect a high of 89°. However, with the clouds and rain it could very well be cooler.
The Storm Prediction Center has a "marginal risk" of severe storms for the Tri-State on Sunday. Damaging wind gusts are the concern if anything turns severe that day, but that chance looks quite low.
Humidity will drop through the evening Sunday and that should be noticeable by Monday morning. Monday's morning temperature will be the coolest we have seen since June 16. We will see a low of 66°.
Monday will be a sunny and hot day with a high of 88°, but humidity should stay low. That comes back with more heat on Tuesday as we race back to 95°.
