Storms break the heat Tuesday evening

 

The heat, haze and humidity continue Tuesday. Focus turns to the cold front that will arrive Tuesday evening and the storms and severe potential. Storms will develop into a line that moves across the area, the main threat will be strong wind but heavy rain, hail, flooding and even a tornado are possible.

There is a temporary break from the heat, Wednesday. Temperatures rise again into the weekend.
