It's still hot... although some relief is on the horizon! Afternoon heat index values hold in the 100-108 degree range through Tuesday before lower temperatures build in. Be on the lookout for some scattered storms this afternoon and evening, a couple of which could be strong/severe with damaging wind being the main hazard. Better chances for showers and storms come Tuesday night through Thursday.
