TODAY’S FORECAST
Just a little more heat & a little more humidity today.
Forecast high temperatures will be fairly average for this time of the year. We will add a little more humidity, which means our heat index in the southern valley will be in the low 90s. That will also elevate the heat stress just a little.
If you get the chance for an evening walk, it will feel amazing!
