Good morning everyone!

Skies are clear early this morning and temperatures range from the low 70s in the Clifton area down to some upper 50s further inland, winds are light or calm.

A strong high pressure ridge will provide our area with sunny skies today, temperatures will rise into the mid 90s however the humidity will not be too oppressive with dew points in the low to mid 60s.

Excessive heat and humidity on Sunday as high temperatures rise to close to 100 degrees and with dew points rising to the low 70s will cause heat indexes near 110 degrees.  An excessive heat watch is in effect.

The heat and humidity will be with us most of next week and for the most part it will stay dry except for a low chance of thunderstorms on Independence Day and again on Friday.
