Discussion
A decent start to the work week in terms of temperatures which will be slightly below-normal for the first day of August, but it’ll turn hotter during the second half. A warm front pushes north through the region on Tuesday and then a weak cool front follows on Tuesday night. The second half of the week will feature temperatures climbing to the middle 90’s and it’ll become more humid on the back side of high pressure pushing off the coast to our east.
