A Humid Time Ahead

With the cooler temperatures that we have experienced so far this summer, the humidity levels have been very bearable. Well, that looks like its about to change, at least temporarily. A strong south wind will start today and will go right through the weekend which will bring heat and moisture from the south which we have rarely experienced this year. Models are suggesting that dew points will get back into the low 70's which is oppressively humid. Here are the forecasted dew points for the next 72 hours on 12 hour increments starting at 7am this morning.
So it looks like dew points will get back into the 60's today and then increase into the 70's tomorrow and Saturday which will make it feel extremely uncomfortable. The good news is that by Sunday night and Monday drier air will move in which will make it feel a lot nicer.
