Tuesday will be another warm day. While it will be mostly sunny, a few scattered showers are likely, especially in the west and southwest. Top temperatures will be between 22 to 26 degrees again, warmest away from east and south coasts.

It won’t be quite as sunny as the week goes on, with cloud building at times, producing scattered and some heavy showers. However, it’ll still be very warm and humid on Wednesday. Some thundery showers will occur, with the east and southeast most at threat.

Thursday and Friday will see more showers.
