Quick forecast:

Tuesday: Sunny, highs in the low to mid-90s.

Tuesday night: Partly cloudy, lows around the low-70s.

Wednesday: Sunny, highs in the low to mid-90s.

Detailed forecast:

Through tonight (Monday): Overnight lows fall into the mid-60s to around 70 under mostly clear skies and with light southern winds. Confidence: High.

Tomorrow (Tuesday): Sunny skies will help boost highs to the low to mid-90s with dew points in the mid-60s bringing moderate humidity. Don't rely on the winds to cool you down too much, as they will be light from the west/northwest. Confidence: High.

Tomorrow night: Partly cloudy skies with lows falling to around the lower-70s and light winds. It will feel quite humid as well with dew points remaining in the mid-60s. Confidence: High-Medium.

Wednesday: Highs, again, reach the low to mid-90s under sunny skies and with western winds at around 5 mph. Dew points will be in the mid to upper-60s making things feel moderately humid, and there will be a slight chance for a storm or shower in the afternoon. Confidence: Medium-High.

Wednesday night: Any showers or storms should end overnight, bringing lows around 70 under partly cloudy skies with light winds. Confidence: Medium-High.

Thursday: A powerful cold front will bring chances for showers and storms, likely occurring between Thursday afternoon and early Friday. Some storms may be severe, so I will keep an eye on that. Otherwise, highs aim for the mid-80s under partly sunny skies and with southwestern winds possibly gusting up to 20 mph. Confidence: Medium.

Thursday night: Storm and shower chances carry on overnight, with lows dropping into the low to mid-60s under mostly cloudy skies. Confidence: Medium.
