It may feel nice out there today, but things are about to change! Tomorrow through Wednesday will be hot, humid, and windy! (No, not a nice cooling breeze...) Prepare now for oppressive heat especially if you have outdoor plans this week!

Now in regular words: We've got a few showers and storms popping up across the area this morning. They should remain somewhat spotty, but you might want to grab a rain jacket/umbrella for your commute. Also move indoors if you hear thunder.

In the last 20 years, only 3 of 517 U.S. lightning fatalities occurred when a person was in a substantial building or fully enclosed metal vehicle. This is why we say "When thunder roars, go indoors!" When you're inside, avoid contact with plumbing or plugged-in devices.
