Heatwave still gripping us with temps hitting the upper 90s and heat index soaring near 110—extreme heat warning in effect today from 11 AM to 8 PM. Storms could bring brief relief with rain, wind, and lightning, but don’t expect a full cooldown. Scattered thunderstorms may roll in Tuesday through Wednesday, offering pockets of relief while highs stay stubbornly hot. Meanwhile, the tropics are unusually calm—no tropical cyclones expected in the Atlantic, Caribbean, or Gulf for the next week, thanks to disruptive wind shear keeping things quiet.
