Good morning everyone!

Skies are mostly clear early this morning and temperatures range from the upper 60s in the Clifton area down to some mid 50s further inland, winds are mainly calm and the humidity is moderate.

Today will be a hot day with plenty of sunshine, the humidity will rise but not be as oppressive as last week as we will have dew points in the upper 60s.  There is a low chance of and evening shower or thunderstorm that will be more likely to our north and west.

Pleasant summer weather Wednesday through Friday as high pressure builds into the area, dew points will drop to the 50s so it will be quite comfortable.

Quite warm over the weekend with slowly increasing humidity, most of the area will stay dry with only a slight chance of an afternoon or evening thunderstorm mainly inland.
