Increased cloud cover out ahead of a frontal system will bring slightly cooler temperatures than Saturday. Look for highs in the mid to upper 80s. Dewpoint temperatures continue to be oppressive in the mid-60s to low 70s.
Possible severe weather with hail and strong winds
Peak heating during the day will spark showers and thunderstorms. These storms are expected to be more disorganized, but will still have the potential for some larger hail, damaging winds and possible heavy downpours. The storms will progress east overnight, lingering into early Monday. Some redevelopment is possible Monday afternoon.
Temperatures will become more seasonable on Monday as highs climb into the lower to mid 80s after the front.
A fast moving ridge of high pressure will give way to sunshine and warmer temperatures on Tuesday. Precipitation chances return Wednesday into Thursday with these warmer conditions. Look for highs once again to climb back into the mid to upper 80s.
Northwesterly flow aloft will provide some relief from the oppressive dewpoints by the end of the work week.
