The biggest difference will be the increased amount of humidity. We will have heat index values near 95 degrees and even higher.
Expect a few scattered thunderstorms in the afternoon and early evening.
We have a better chance for rain and thunderstorms on Tuesday and the extra clouds will keep temps a bit cooler. We have a chance for thunderstorms every day this week and could be looking at heavy rain later this week due to a stalled cold front.
Temperatures return to the lower 80s on Friday.
