By afternoon, sunshine stays in place and the temperature climbs to a high of 86. Humidity stays in check compared with recent days, but it may still feel like 91 during the warmest part of the day. Winds remain out of the northeast around 7 mph, with gusts up to 17 mph. Rain chances are close to zero, so the day looks dry from start to finish.
