Today’s Weather: Sunny and warm
Monday starts sunny and quiet, with temperatures near 69 degrees early and just a light north wind around 2 mph. It is a comfortable start, although it may feel like 72 for a bit after sunrise. Skies stay bright through the morning as temperatures climb steadily.
By afternoon, sunshine is in full control and the high reaches 89. A northeast breeze around 7 mph, with gusts near 20 mph, should keep the air moving. Rain is not expected, so outdoor plans get a green light. It may feel closer to 95 during the hottest part of the day, so the heat will be more noticeable than the thermometer suggests.
Monday evening stays clear and calm, with temperatures easing out of the 80s after sunset. The breeze backs off as the sun goes down, making for a smooth end to the day.
Overnight, skies remain clear and the low settles near 66. Winds stay light, and rain chances remain at zero through daybreak.
The allergy index is low Monday. Grass, mold, ragweed and tree pollen are all in the low range.
Tuesday looks hotter, with a high near 92 and a low around 70. Expect a mostly sunny, more humid day with little risk of rain.
