Forecaster Derrah Getter’s First Warning Forecast

A cold front will be bringing us some much needed rain and less hot temperatures early this week.

Highs Monday will only reach the upper 80s and low 90s for some inland locations. Feels like temperatures won't be as bad and no longer in the triple digits.

A few storms are possible tonight. They won't be severe, but could bring a few heavy downpours, frequent lightning and gusty wind.

A cold front will cross the region on Monday, bringing more widespread storms Monday. Before the front arrives, expect high temperatures in the lower 90s with a heat index near 100.

Behind the cold front, temperatures return to near normal for just one day. Expect mostly sunny skies and highs in the upper 80s.

Wednesday brings one more surge of heat and humidity, before temperatures settle down in the upper 80s heading into next weekend.
