Tonight will be another very warm one with temperatures falling only to 71°. Skies will stay clear and we could have a few areas of fog.
Heads Up: An Air Quality Alert is in effect for parts of the Tri-State Monday due to expected high levels of ozone. #WCPO @WCPO #Cincywx #Ohwx #inwx #nkywx pic.twitter.com/zjJg5LlvPy

Monday is going to be another very hot day. We expect a high temperature of 92° under sunny skies. That humidity will stick around again, making it feel closer to 97°. Another issue, we will see an Air Quality Alert for Butler, Clermont, Hamilton and Warren counties in Ohio as well as Boone, Campbell and Kenton counties in Kentucky. This goes into effect midnight tonight and will last until midnight ET Tuesday. This is due to levels of ozone approaching or exceeding unhealthy categories.
It will be even hotter on Tuesday with our highest temperature of the week at 94°. Add in that humidity and we will have a peak heat index of 99°, possible 100°. This may lead to a Heat Advisory, but right now it is 50/50. Either way, expect a very uncomfortable day. We should see plenty of sun early with clouds building into the afternoon.
Feels like temperatures the next three days are going to be pretty gross, with Monday and Tuesday taking the cake. Some areas could make it to 100° for a feels like temperatures Monday and Tuesday. #wcpo @wcpo pic.twitter.com/roJ48l36Wg

Our next rain chance for the area is late Tuesday overnight into Wednesday. At this point it's not looking too promising but we are included within a "marginal risk" for severe weather. Right now, this isn't looking like a wash out. From there, our temperature do dip slightly to end the week as we get closer to average.
A LOT of heat the next three days, but there are signs that we have a "cooler" stretch just around the corner. August 10 thru 14th should bring below normal temperatures to much of the Midwest & Ohio River Valley @wcpo #wcpo #cincywx ohwx pic.twitter.com/IUQkNJi7H9
