Tracking dangerous heat starting tomorrow, triple digit heat through Tuesday

TONIGHT: Mostly clear and muggy with lows in the mid-70s.

TOMORROW: Mostly sunny and hot with highs in the mid-90s. Heat index in the 104-108 degree range.

EXTENDED: Dangerous heat and humidity settle in as upper high pressure takes hold across Mid-Missouri for the next few days. Try to limit outdoor exposure as much as possible through Tuesday with the heat index well into the triple digits. We'll finally see a break in the pattern by mid-week as a cold front works in from the north Tuesday night into Wednesday, allowing winds to shift back to the northwest. We'll see a chance for rain and storms during that time frame, but severe weather isn't expected at this time. Temperatures will dramatically drop below average with highs in the lower 80s with lower humidity through next weekend.
