Quiet start to the week; rain, heat, humidity return by this weekend

Conditions will be warm and quiet to kick off the work week before shower and thunderstorm chances ramp up bringing more heat and humidity back to the area by this weekend and next week.
Today and Tuesday will be on the quiet side with mostly sunny skies today and partly cloudy skies on Tuesday. Temperatures both days will hover in the low-80s across the area with relatively light winds averaging between 5 and 15 mph with occasional gusts up to 20 mph possible on Tuesday. Tuesday night will become mostly cloudy heading into Wednesday morning. Overnight temperatures will be comfortable, dropping into the upper-50s by Tuesday morning and by Wednesday morning.
Wednesday will then be mostly cloudy and warm as temperatures once again top out in the low-80s. Winds will be on the breezy side, hovering between 15 and 20 mph, gusts up to 30 mph possible. Showers and thunderstorms are projected to move into the area after midnight as temperatures start dropping into the mid-60s by Thursday morning.
From there, we are looking at scattered shower and thunderstorm chances throughout Thursday, Friday, and Saturday. Despite the cloudy skies and rain chances, temperatures over those three days will remain warm, topping out in the low-80s on Thursday and the mid-80s for Friday and Saturday. Winds through the three days will hover between 5 and 15 mph with occasional gusts up to 20 mph possible at times. Overnight temperatures are projected to drop into the mid-60s by the following mornings with showers and thunderstorms continuing on and off.
Rain chances are projected to wrap up throughout Saturday afternoon but isolated chances may remain in the forecast throughout Sunday. Once these rain chances taper off, humidity will ramp back up across the area along with temperatures. This will lead to hot and humid conditions with heat index values likely well into the 90s for nearly all of next week. It is important to remember to stay hydrated by drinking plenty of water and by taking breaks from the heat and sun by cooling off in air conditioned buildings. Remember that swimming, whether you’re in a pool or at the beach, is not staying hydrated or considered taking a break from the heat as you are still out in the hot and humid conditions in general.
Sunday will then be partly cloudy with a few isolated showers possible as temperatures hover in the upper-80s. With the humidity in the mix, it will likely feel more like the low to mid-90s across the area. Winds will bring a pleasant but warm breeze to the area, coming from the southeast between 10 and 15 mph, gusts up to 20 mph possible. Sunday night will remain partly cloudy as temperatures drop into the upper-60s by Monday morning.
Monday will basically be a repeat of Sunday with partly cloudy skies, highs in the upper-80s, and heat index values likely in the low to mid-90s. Winds will also be pleasant but warm, coming from the southeast between 10 and 15 mph, gusts up to 20 mph at times possible. Monday night will gradually become mostly clear as temperatures drop into the upper-60s and low-70s by Tuesday morning.
Tuesday and Wednesday will be the hottest days of next week so far. We are looking at highs in the upper-80s and low-90s with heat index values likely in the mid, possibly upper-90s across the area. Winds will be light from the south, southeast between 5 and 15 mph. Overnight conditions are expected to remain mostly clear and quiet as temperatures drop into the low-70s by the following mornings.
