We hope you enjoyed the moderate temperatures today! The heat and humidity make a not-so-long-awaited return tomorrow. In between the transition, a few showers may pop up tonight and tomorrow afternoon. But we think most of us will stay dry this weekend and the story for Sunday will be the return to the typical muggy July conditions.

       Tomorrow (Sunday): Clouds should break in the morning and things will heat up under mostly sunny skies. Highs will top out in the mid 90s, and the heat index will flirt with the century mark with a more humid air mass in place. Isolated showers and thunderstorms will develop in the afternoon, but most of the organized action should stay north and west of our region. It will be mostly cloudy, warm and muggy tomorrow night with lows in the mid 70s.
