Wednesday will be the most comfortable day this week as high temperatures stay into the upper 80s and heat indices only reach close to 90. Storms are possible by late afternoon and again overnight into early Thursday. The storm chance continues Thursday as a warm front moves through. This will bring temperature and humidity back up with highs close to 90 and heat indices reaching the mid-upper 90s Thursday under partly sunny skies.
