FORECAST:
- A Heat Advisory is in effect for Charlotte and all points south for today as the heat index values climb to near or above 105° this afternoon.
- A few cooling downpours will be around today, but not everyone gets rain.
- Those that do, will get heavy downpours with intense lightning.
- Some of this activity could linger well into the evening hours.
- Then we get to talk about relief coming our way. A weak front pushes through tomorrow and that helps to drop the temps down to the upper 80s with some clouds and scattered showers.
- The bigger change comes in on Wednesday with a decent drop in the humidity levels.
- This won’t last long though, the higher heat and steam returns by Friday and the weekend.
Heat Advisory in effect today from basically I-85 and points south. Heat index values could exceed 105° in these areas this afternoon. Be safe out there today in the heat and try to get outdoor activities done early if you can. pic.twitter.com/h6x6N5LsBg
