Current Weather Synopsis Heat and humidity builds through the middle of the week, with heat index values reaching triple digits for much of the lower elevations. Therefore, Extreme Heat Warnings and Heat Advisories are in effect for the lowlands through Wednesday. This will be a prolonged heat wave, with warm, muggy nights providing little relief. Impacts of heat could accumulate over time, and the heat warnings and advisories may be extended even as the heat eases off a bit late in the work week. While an isolated thunderstorm cannot be ruled out through Tuesday, chances for afternoon thunderstorms begin to ramp up Wednesday and beyond.
