CWG Live updates: Heat mostly holds off this week but humidity rises
Happening now: Lots of sun with temperatures rising through the 60s and 70s this morning. Afternoon highs reach the mid-80s for most.
What's next? Tomorrow's a lot like today. Between Wednesday and Saturday, expect more clouds, it turns more humid and we may have to dodge some showers at times. But, overall, early August could be much worse.
Today's daily digit — 7/10: A little warmer and more humid but still quite nice summer weather. | 🤚 Your call?
The digit is a somewhat subjective rating of the day's weather, on a 0-to-10 scale.
Forecast in detail
Today (Monday): Lots of sun, moderate humidity (dew points near 60) and warm. Overall, a great pool or beach day, with highs from 82 to 87. A light breeze from the northeast at 5 to 10 mph may develop during the afternoon. Confidence: High 😎 Nice Day!
Tonight: Partly cloudy and a little warmer than previous nights. Lows range from near 60 in our cooler spots to the upper 60s downtown. Light winds. Confidence: High
Tomorrow (Tuesday): It's a lot like Monday but with some more clouds and a tad more humidity (dew points into the low 60s). Highs are again mostly in the mid-80s with light winds from the east. Confidence: Medium-High
Tomorrow night: Skies become mostly cloudy, limiting how far temperatures fall overnight. Lows range from 65 to 70 with light winds. Confidence: Medium-High
A look ahead
Wednesday and Thursday may feature a lot of clouds and muggier conditions (dew points rising into the mid-60s). But the clouds may hold back temperatures — with highs mostly in the low 80s. There's a slight chance of showers, especially in the afternoon and evening, but it's probably dry on balance. Lows at night mainly settle between 65 and 70. Confidence: Medium
Friday and Saturday may not be unlike Wednesday and Thursday; the forecast depends on the position of an area of storminess that may be lurking off the Mid-Atlantic coast. It may stay far enough to the south and east to be a nonfactor, but there's a small chance some of its moisture could flow into the area. For now, we'll call for partly cloudy skies, moderately high humidity, a slight chance of showers and highs from 80 to 85 and lows from 65 to 70. But stay tuned for possible changes to the forecast. Confidence: Low-Medium
By Sunday, it will be probably be very warm and humid, with highs well into the 80s. Confidence: Medium

McNair High in Stockton flooded by water main break, students shift to remote learning
A Stockton-area school is shifting to remote learning for the day after a water main broke and caused flooding on campus. The Lodi Unified School District announced Monday that McNair High School will be on remote learning for the day due to the situation. "Students will need to log onto their Google Classroom during their class periods. Students on campus will be going home," the district said in a statement. Video from the scene shows significant flooding in one of McNair's buildings. It appears several classrooms are impacted. Workers are trying to mitigate the damage. It's unclear how the water main broke and how long the school will be in remote learning. Lodi Unified schools only just returned from summer break last Tuesday.

Clouds and showers return to Maryland by mid-week
It's a beautiful afternoon across Maryland, with just a few clouds, temperatures in the mid-80s, and comfortable low humidity. It's a perfect day to enjoy the sunshine, because changes are on the way — thick clouds are set to return Tuesday and linger through midweek. Overnight lows will drop into the upper 50s to mid-60s tonight, just a bit warmer than recent nights due to increased high-level cloud cover. That cloud cover will signal the beginning of a more unsettled stretch. Onshore flow will strengthen Wednesday night into Thursday as high pressure settles over New England and low pressure develops off the East Coast. This will usher in cooler, cloudier, and more humid conditions for much of Maryland. Low clouds and periods of light rain are likely during this stretch, although the timing remains uncertain. Some weather models show light rain beginning as early as Tuesday morning, while others delay it until Wednesday afternoon. Temperatures on Wednesday will likely struggle to reach 80 degrees, a noticeable drop from today's warmth, with persistent easterly winds keeping skies overcast. From Thursday through the weekend, the below-average temperature trend will continue. Highs will range from the upper 70s to mid-80s, with lows in the 60s. While much of this period should stay dry, a stray afternoon shower or thunderstorm can't be completely ruled out. This pattern will give Maryland a taste of early September, offering a break from the heat and humidity of midsummer.
