Afternoon showers return to South Florida mid-week
On Tuesday morning, temperatures hovered in the low 80s across the region. With the heating of the day, they will climb into the lower 90s for the afternoon. Despite "feels like" temperatures returning to the triple digits for the early afternoon, no heat advisories are in effect for South Florida. Heat index values, which take into account the temperature and the humidity, will range from the upper 90s to 103 degrees.
The National Weather Service issues a heat advisory when the heat index is expected to reach 105 degrees, or higher, and last for at least two hours.
The NEXT Weather team is tracking a 50-60% chance of scattered showers and storms in the afternoon on Tuesday, favoring Broward and Miami-Dade counties, as moisture moves in from the east. The chance of rain will drop after sunset. On Wednesday and Thursday, there is a 50% chance for scattered showers and storms.
By Friday, Saharan dust and drier air will move in. This will lower the chance of rain for the weekend and bring back hotter conditions with afternoon highs in the lower to mid-90s.

Los Angeles County canine rescue teams return after aiding Texas flood recovery
Canine rescue teams from Los Angeles County returned to the Southland on Sunday morning after spending more than two weeks assisting with search and recovery efforts in Central Texas following the devastating floods in the region. The team with the Los Angeles County Fire Department was deployed to Texas on July 8. Over the next 18 days, the specialized dogs helped rescue teams search for remaining victims after floods tore through the region, leaving at least 138 dead. Dozens are still unaccounted for. "All canine teams and first responders are to be commended for their steadfast commitment in assisting with the search and recovery efforts in central Texas," said County of Los Angeles Fire Chief Anthony C. Marrone. "We continue to stand alongside the residents and communities impacted by the devastating flooding and pray for continued strength and resilience." Gov. Gavin Newsom deployed the team, along with other teams from Oakland, Sacramento, Menlo Park, Orange County, and Riverside County. At LAX on Sunday morning, crewmembers told CBS News Los Angeles that it worked in excruciating heat with high humidity, which California-based crews are not used to. "It was very challenging compared to our other deployments," said Capt. Celina Serrano. "We did have to deal with something unexpected, with the humidity, which is what we're not used to out here." Serrano added that the dogs' work schedules had to be altered due to the weather conditions. A canine, Prentiss, had to have emergency surgery while in Texas but is expected to make a full recovery. He's going to have a two-month break from his duties before authorities assess whether he should return to work.

More Than 132 Million Face Wilting Heat Across Eastern US
More than 132 million people across the central and eastern US are facing blistering temperatures to start the week, with rising humidity making it feel even worse and putting a strain on the energy grid as air conditioners and fans get a workout. Heat advisories or excessive-heat warnings have been issued from Nebraska to Massachusetts and from North Dakota to Florida, covering all or part of 29 states and more than 38% of the US population, according to the National Weather Service. Sweltering conditions will peak today and Monday before gradually easing. The US Southeast will be the last to get some relief, later in the week or next.
