Discussion
The warmest stretch of weather so far this season will continue for the next two days with highs in the 90's, but it'll turn slightly cooler less humid by the time Monday rolls around. There can be isolated thunderstorm later today and early tonight and an even better chance is likely late tomorrow as a strong cold front arrives. There is a chance that some of the thunderstorms late tomorrow and early tomorrow night reach strong-to-severe levels. After a more comfortable start to the new work week, the heat and humidity will build up by the middle of next week.
