It's been a warmer day Tuesday, but not overly humid. The dew point got up to the low 60s, making it start to feel a bit stickier outside, but not overly humid.
Tuesday night will be mostly clear and warmer with a low of only 72 degrees.
Wednesday's forecast is all about heat and humidity. It's possible that we could end up with a heat advisory. Temperatures will warm to around 92-94 degrees under a partly cloudy sky. Dew points will rise to the mid-70s, making it feel oppressively humid outside. This will give us heat index values between 100-104 degrees in the afternoon.
There's also a chance for showers and storms beginning in the afternoon. Scattered storms begin in our western locations after 5 p.m. and that spotty line of storms moves east through midnight, becoming more widespread overnight. It's possible that we could see an isolated severe storm in that window. Damaging wind gusts in the form of downbursts are possible.
Additional rounds of showers and storms will continue on Thursday for the 4th of July. This will include morning showers and storms along with spotty activity in the afternoon and evening. There's a marginal risk of severe weather for Thursday.
Oppressive humidity will still be here too. Our high of 87 should feel like the mid 90s.
