The story this week is a strengthening ridge of high pressure that begins to expand over the Southeast on Tuesday. That will push highs into the mid-90s to close out June, followed by upper 90s on Wednesday as July begins. That\u2019s only the start of what looks to be an intense stretch of heat. <\/p>

From Thursday through Sunday, forecast highs are expected to reach 100 degrees or higher each day, with Friday and the Fourth of July holiday potentially climbing 3 to 4 degrees above the century mark. Those are actual air temperatures, not the heat index. Several daily records will be in jeopardy, and some locations could approach all-time record highs. <\/p>\n

When humidity is factored in, heat index values could soar to 105 to 110 degrees, creating dangerous conditions for anyone spending extended time outdoors. Limit strenuous activity during the hottest part of the day, stay hydrated and take frequent breaks in the shade or air conditioning.<\/p>\n

Rain chances will stay scarce over the next 7 to 10 days as the ridge keeps storm systems away. A few scattered afternoon or evening storms are possible around the Fourth of July, but widespread rain or washout conditions are not expected.<\/p>\n

Even after the holiday weekend, relief looks limited. Temperatures next week remain in the mid to upper 90s with humidity climbing, meaning the heat will stay locked in while the typical summertime pop-up shower or storm pattern returns.<\/p>
