Heat moves in tomorrow, increases in intensity all week

The heat wave is here.


So far, the NAM remains a bit cooler than the GFS regarding what we're going to see, but the last two model runs still show pockets of 90° temperatures showing up in various regions throughout the state. Couple this with dewpoints in the 70s, potentially exceeding 75° in some places, and you have heat indexes that should exceed 100°F for several days straight.  Let's add in the bonus that night time lows may be in the 70s.

Yeah, somehow I doubt I'll be sleeping well this week.

Expect no relief at all until Monday of next week, when temperatures once again become fall like, and that will likely be the true beginning of our fall weather pattern.  Until then, spend all the time you can at the beach.  There will be a chance of thunderstorms Tuesday and Wednesday afternoon as a very weak disturbance moves in from our west. Chances of severe weather are about as slim as Lloyd Christmas getting with Mary Swanson, however - there's just no wind to work with.
