Barry brings heavy rain threat Tuesday, then tropical humidity

 

The remnants of Barry will bring scattered showers and thunderstorms with the potential for tropical downpours, as a surge of humidity also arrives. The heavy rain threat will last through Wednesday morning. As the chance of rain decreases to end the week the sweltering heat will soar. A heat wave, the warmest stretch since August of 2013 will last from Thursday, through the weekend. The combination of heat and humidity will make this stretch dangerous, especially for at risk groups, the very young / old and those with health conditions.
