Dangerous afternoon heat, storms rolling in after 2 PM
Upper 90s on the thermometer, feels like 110 by midday. Light west wind holds through the morning before any sea breeze develops, thick sticky air all day. Storm risk firms up between 2 and 6 PM.
In town today: aurorawave at Music Farm, 8 PM. Live music at 8 PM, a good way to cool off after the heat of the day.
