Tuesday starts mostly cloudy and sticky, with temperatures already near 80 and a light west-northwest breeze around 3 mph. It will feel more like 91 early, so the morning may be a sweaty one if you are headed out the door. Skies turn partly sunny as the day moves along, with some haze possible from wildfire smoke and no real rain concerns to slow things down.
By afternoon, temperatures climb to a high near 89 with north winds around 8 mph and gusts up to 14 mph. Humidity stays in place, pushing feels like readings as high as 102. Rain chances stay at just 1 percent, so most of the focus will be on the heat and the hazy sky.
