Hot and sticky conditions follow us into the new week. Monsoonal moisture will keep humidity levels high across our microclimates.
Lightning and thunderstorm activity has really picked up this evening in our mountains. The problem with these monsoon storms is they're fast moving, resulting in quick and heavy downpours, risking the chance for localized flooding. As of now, there are no watches and warnings in effect.
Most of this activity will remain confined in our mountains and deserts but some of our foothills and inland valleys could see showers, as well.
We'll continue to keep this chance of pop-up thunderstorms in the eastern portion of our county throughout the week. Looking ahead to Friday, the severity of storms increases.
Daytime highs will continue to trend warm and muggy, with a marine layer building each morning and night giving the coastal communities cloudy starts.
Tuesday's Highs:
Coast: 82-87°
Inland: 85-96°
Mountains: 87-93°
Deserts: 104-109°
