EXTREME HEAT WARNINGS have been issued Monday and Tuesday ahead of our first major heat wave of the summer. Temperatures will soar to 100° Monday and Tuesday, with heat indices around 110°. Unlike Sunday, we won't have the luxury of clouds to cool us down today, therefore, temps will spike to the century mark. You should avoid being outdoors at all costs...and if you need to be outside, move inside if you develop signs of heat related illness, which include confusion, dizziness, nausea, vomiting, and weakness.

Looking ahead, the week will be dry until Thursday, which is the earliest that rain chances return to the region. Scattered showers and storms will be possible Thursday-Sunday during the afternoon hours.
