It's baaaack.
The heat and humidity that's been the star of our summer is cooking once again. Temperatures on Monday should climb back into the 90s with feels-like temps in the mid 90s, at least.
If there is one silver lining the forecast -- yes, we're looking on the bright side -- we get a break from the storms today, mostly.
The weekend's truly torrential downpour isn't expected to make a hat trick on Monday following back-to-back soakers on Saturday and Sunday. But, we can't rule out a pop-up shower.
Some in the area do have a slight risk of a severe storm risk for the evening, though. That mostly comes down to those in the Hudson Valley region.

The best bet for a return of rain comes on Tuesday. Honestly, the whole week looks a bit wet.
Local
Flood watches have been posted for Tuesday and Wednesday for Central/South Jersey (for now), but our whole area is in for several inches of rain by the end of the week.
A huge bonus to the clouds and rain: no more 90s in the 10-day forecast after Monday. In fact, our forecast keeps us below average the rest of this week and next week.
Storm Team 4 is also tracking Tropical Storm Debby, which made landfall as a category 1 hurricane around 7 am.. Monday in Florida with maximum sustained winds of 80 mph. Flooding, historic rainfall and flooding will be this storm’s calling card.
The tri-state isn't expected to see any direct impact, but the remnants of Debby could enhance our rainfall potential.
