ROANOKE, Va. – This past weekend was a scorcher, and the humidity didn’t make things much better Sunday.
A front passing through early Monday morning will help drop humidity levels a little bit from morning to afternoon.
It’s still late June, however, so that breeze down the mountains will keep things warm/hot the next two afternoons.
As downsloping continues and strengthens Wednesday, we’ll once again be faced with near-record heat. Highs look fairly similar to what we saw Saturday afternoon.
Make sure you’re drinking plenty of water, taking breaks and seeking shade if you have to be outside working in this heat.

A front comes in Wednesday night, and it may bring a few showers over the mountains into Thursday.
Don’t count on this curing the drought, though.
We’ll stay quite hot and dry into the weekend. Another front out of the west will team up with heat and humidity already in place to bring the chance for scattered showers and storms each afternoon.
