Don't worry, though, the heat isn't going to return today. It's actually going to be a pretty nice afternoon with partly sunny skies and temperatures back in the upper 70s. Tuesday and Wednesday will be our 'transition days' as strong winds within the jet stream help to dig out a trough in the west but also build a ridge of high pressure further north into the Midwest and Great Lakes.
A warm front will begin to move closer late in the day on Tuesday and into Wednesday keeping only a small storm chance going both days. By Thursday, the warm front will be to our north and with a breezy southwest wind the heat and humidity will have returned. Dew points will likely rise back into the upper 60s/low 70s and temperatures could very well top the low 90s for both Thursday and Friday. By late Friday or early Saturday (still a little too early to pin down) a pretty strong cold front will begin to move southeast across the Plains with the potential for a few stronger storms. Behind the front temperatures could fall into the middle and even low 70s by next Monday.
