The hottest weather of the summer so far is settling into the area. High temperatures will climb into the low 100s through the week, with Wednesday expected to be the hottest day as highs reach around 103 degrees. With the humidity, Heat index values could soar as high as 112 degrees, creating dangerous conditions for anyone spending extended time outdoors.

Aside from a slight chance of an isolated afternoon storm on Friday, the forecast remains hot, sunny, and dry through the weekend. Overnight temperatures will only fall into the upper 70s to near 80 degrees, providing very little relief from the daytime heat.

Take the heat seriously this week. Stay hydrated, avoid strenuous outdoor activities during the hottest part of the afternoon, and check on neighbors, children, and pets as this prolonged stretch of extreme heat continues.

And just like that, we have Tropical Storm Bertha

Wind shear and dry air should keep this from becoming a Big Bertha, but let's keep our guard up just in case Bertha's circulation keep reforming farther south.

If that center reforms southward again overnight, we might have a more coherent circulation visit Texas down the road.

For now, our most likely scenario remains that it gets tangled up with Southeast Louisiana and becomes a tropical depression or a tropical nothing by the time it reaches Texas.

We'll keep you posted just in case.
