Dry air is keeping the start of the week hot but not miserable — think “toasty” instead of “sticky.” Sunshine rules the forecast until late week, when humidity and pop-up storms make a comeback.

Today & Tonight: Drier air that moved in over the weekend is sticking around to start the week. Highs will climb into the mid-90s Monday, but lower humidity means it won’t feel quite as oppressive. Heat index values will only be a couple degrees warmer than the actual temperature. Expect lots of sunshine with little to no cloud cover. Overnight lows dip into the upper-60s and low-70s.

Up Next: Another weak front will reinforce the dry air Tuesday, keeping rain chances very low and humidity at manageable levels through midweek. Highs will stay in the low-90s with mornings in the low-70s under mostly sunny skies. Moisture returns by the weekend, bringing back higher humidity and the chance for a few pop-up afternoon storms.

The Tropics: Tropical Storm Fernand will continue to move through the subtropical Atlantic early this week before becoming a post-tropical system by midweek. Fernand poses no threat to land.

A tropical wave near the Windward Islands is producing showers and thunderstorms with a low chance of further development this week as the disturbance moves into a less favorable environment. Although the system is weakening, gusty winds are possible over the Windward Islands through this morning.
