We will mark the end of August and meteorological summer with another day of near-normal heat and humidity under partly cloudy skies on Tuesday. Temperatures will once again approach 90° in the afternoon after starting in the muggy mid-70s. Heat indices will once again climb into the low 100s as humidity continues to persist.

After a cold front swings through Wednesday with showers and thunderstorms, though, drier air will punch in from the north and make it feel much more comfortable for Thursday into the weekend — a well-timed shot of nice weather as we head into the long Labor Day weekend.
