Anticipate another scorching day this Father’s Day, with temperatures soaring into the 90s and heat indices surpassing 100°F. It’s crucial to stay cool and hydrated and to minimize prolonged outdoor activities. If your plans are outdoors, aim for the morning and early afternoon to avoid the scattered storms that may develop later. Ensure you have a contingency plan for outdoor activities in the afternoon or evening.

This hot, humid, and unstable weather pattern is here to stay for a while. Temperatures will consistently rise into the mid-90s, with high humidity pushing heat index values higher. A Heat Advisory might be issued by midweek: these occur when heat index values reach between 108° and 112°F for at least two hours.

A stalled front to our north, combined with the afternoon sea breeze, will maintain daily chances for isolated rain and storms in the forecast. Be prepared by keeping your water bottle, fan, and umbrella handy throughout the week.
