Showers and storms possible Monday; a toasty week ahead

Sunday evening begins with a few clouds as we start off with temps in the 80s/70s. Once the sun sets, temps are expected to drop into the 60s with a southern breeze in control. We’ll maintain a few clouds, but everyone should enjoy a calm and dry overnight.
Monday starts with a sunny morning before clouds build in during lunchtime/afternoon. It will certainly feel like summer as dew points get rather muggy and temps trying to reach into the 80s! With the heat and humidity, afternoon thunderstorms will be possible, with a few lightning strikes and a few heavy downpours possible.
Tuesday starts very similar with a fairly sunny morning before clouds build in. Our building heat and humidity will provide the chance for afternoon storms, but chances look limited to only the MTN’s at this point. Most of the day, however, will be hot and dry as temps reach the 90s so remember to stay hydrated as much as possible.
Wednesday, after a morning in the 60s, once again sees our temps rocket into the 90s by the late afternoon. Heat indexes, or what it feels like, are expected to be way warmer so make sure you’re drinking plenty of water, taking breaks, and limiting exposure outside. Can’t rule out an afternoon storm, though any chances will be highly isolated.
Thursday once again carries the risk for the heat and humidity as temps climb back into the 90s. A good reminder to look after your four-legged friends, make sure to not leave them outside for too long and watch out for the elderly. Increasing clouds bring in the chance for an afternoon storm, though chances will remain highly isolated once again.
Friday sees morning temps starting in the 60s before climbing near 90. Humidity levels will make for a muggy afternoon at times and will carry the chance of a stray afternoon storm. Another day to follow proper heat safety, including wearing loose fitted clothing and don’t leave kids or pets in an unattended car.
Saturday begins to see our high pressure break down. As it does, its influence will wane, but with temps rocketing into the 80s, we’ll bring in the chance for a few showers and thunderstorms. The best chances appear to be across the northern fringes of WV, but something to be mindful of if you have plans this weekend.
In your extended forecast, next weekend is pointing to a slightly cooler weekend as we see those temps drop into the 80s. Summertime storms in the afternoon will try to return next weekend, especially for Sunday. The following week sees temps drop into the 80s, but the chance for a few storms will be around.
