Partly cloudy skies with hot and humid conditions. High temperatures in the upper 80s to low 90s with heat indices in the 90s/100s. An isolated strong storm or two cannot be ruled out in northern areas in the afternoon/evening.

Mostly cloudy and humid with patchy fog possible. An isolated strong storm can’t be ruled out in the Piney Woods overnight.

Summer-like temperatures expected into midweek. Heat index values in the upper 90s to low 100s. A Moderate HeatRisk affects those who are sensitive to heat, especially those without cooling/hydration, and some health systems and industries.
