Another hot and humid day forecast for Sunday.

• Highs in the mid 90s Sunday
• Heat index values could reach 109 degrees
• Scattered showers for Sunday

Look for highs reaching into the mid 90s inland and near 90 along the immediate coast.  Heat Index values could reach 105-109 during the afternoon and evening hours prompting a Heat Advisory for much of eastern North Carolina.  We’ll see widely scattered afternoon thunderstorms to cool things down and add to the already oppressive humidity.

A cold front will slowly settle south across the state on Monday and we will see more clouds and a better chance for showers and thunderstorms to cool us down a little.

By Tuesday, with the cold front well south, a more northerly wind flow will be in place allowing for sunny and dry day with seasonable temperatures in the mid to upper 80s.
