Friday night will be partly cloudy and warm. Overnight lows will be in the 60s. Stray showers are possible by dawn. Still a good time to make sure your home is well ventilated with working air-conditioning. 

Saturday will be the first day of high heat and humidity. Highs will be near her just above 90°F. Heat indices will be near 95°F. Remember to wear light, loose-fitting clothing and drink plenty of fluids if you’re going to be outdoors. This will reduce the chance of  heat exhaustion or heat stroke. Also, keep children and pets away from any empty vehicles.

Sunrise is at 5:56 a.m. ET.

With a more unstable atmosphere, there will be a slight chance of pop up showers and thunderstorms Saturday afternoon. Remember to listen to lifeguards and lookout for lightning. Get ready to duck indoors or get it out of the water at beaches immediately if there is any. 

Happy Father’s Day, Sunday! Dad's day will be hotter and more muggy. It will be in the middle 90s. Heat indices will approach 100°F or more. Great day to cool off with dad indoors where it’s air-conditioned or in the pool or at the beach where it’s more comfortable.

The third day of 90-degree weather will occur on Monday with partly sunny skies. Afternoon temps will be near 90 degrees.

Tuesday will bring some relief under partly sunny skies. Afternoon temperatures will be in the low 80s. Showers are possible in the afternoon and evening. Morning showers, Wednesday, with daytime temps in the low 80s.

Summer begins with the summer solstice at 6:07 a.m. ET, Thursday.
