Meteorologist Myles Henderson’s first warning forecast
Hot and humid midweek. Chance of showers and thunderstorms towards the end of the week.
Today will be the hottest day of the week with highs in the 35s, about 10 degrees above normal for this time of year. The afternoon heat index will reach 38 to 40 degrees. Expect a mix of mostly sunny to partly cloudy skies with a slight chance of showers or thunderstorms.

Our chance of rain increases as the work week comes to a close. Scattered showers and thunderstorms are possible on Thursday and Friday, especially in the afternoon and evening. Highs will drop to just under 32 degrees on Thursday and just under 28 degrees on Friday, but it will still be muggy.
Highs will remain in the 30s to 35s over Labor Day weekend. It will still be humid, so afternoon heat index readings will be in the 35s to 35s. Partly cloudy skies are expected, with isolated showers and thunderstorms developing each afternoon.
