Happy Father's Day to all the dads out there! Sunday's high reached 91°, making it our first day of 90°+ since Sept. 5, 2023. There's more where that came from too.

Overnight will be the start of our overnight warm stretch. Low temperatures tonight will only fall to the low 70s despite clear skies. That means humidity will be quite high.
Tomorrow is the day we will REALLY feel the humidity. Dew points rise into the low 70°, which will make our 93° day feel closer to 100-degrees. That is pretty much how the rest of the week will go as well. The one wrinkle with Monday is that we will have a chance at some isolated showers or storms Monday afternoon. Some storms could bring heavy rain due to the amount of moisture in the atmosphere. Luckily, we don't expect anything severe. However, where we see rain, we could very well see totals of 0.50 to 1.00 inches.
9 FIRST WARNING: ICYMI, Much of the Tri-State has been placed in an Excessive Heat Watch for Monday through Friday (6/21) as we expect heat indices of 100° or warmer. Make sure to hydrate this week. Heat illness can set in fast! @wcpo #cincywx #ohwx pic.twitter.com/TkMtIa4se0

The rest of the week will be HOT! In fact, we have a shot at seven consecutive days of 90° or warmer. If that happens, it would be the longest stretch we have seen since July 2020. Because of that heat, much of the Tri-State has been placed in an Excessive Heat Watch from Monday through Friday. Feels like temperatures every day will have a chance at reaching 100-degrees.
The next day we are expected to be under 90-degrees is a week from today, Sunday, June 23. However, the forecast is for 89° so it will be close.
