Triple-digit "feels-like" temps across South Florida to start week
Monday got off to a warm start with temperatures in the lower 80s. In the afternoon, temperatures will be in the low 90s. While a heat advisory is not in effect, "feels-like" temperatures could climb to 105 degrees in the afternoon.
The triple-digit heat indices will continue each afternoon this week. It's important to stay hydrated, wear light-colored clothing and limit outdoor afternoon activities.
After a dry weekend, isolated morning showers will return along the coastal metro areas this week along with inland afternoon storms.
There is a 10% chance of stray morning showers on Monday, with a 20% chance for inland storms during the afternoon. A similar pattern will continue each day this week with a 20-30% chance.
For those seeking to beat the heat at the beach, the rip current risk is low but the UV index is extreme. Don't forget the sunscreen along with an extra bottle of water as you head out to the coast.
There are no marine alerts for boaters in the Atlantic waters and the Keys.

California wildfire causing hazy skies in San Diego; extreme heat warning later this week
SAN DIEGO (FOX 5/KUSI) — Parts of eastern San Diego County and Imperial County will be under an extreme heat warning later this week, while wildfires burning in central California brought some cloud coverage to San Diego over the weekend. Satellite and radar showed smoke traveling south from the Gifford Fire burning in San Luis Obispo and Santa Barbara counties that mixed with coastal cirrus clouds moving east from the Pacific Ocean to create hazy conditions across San Diego County on Sunday, according to the National Weather Service. Much of San Diego County remained at a normal to moderate air quality Sunday, reports, meaning those unusually sensitive to air pollutants could be impacted and are urged to reduce time outdoors. Heat Risk/Extreme Heat Warning Portions of Southwest Arizona and Southeast and Southern California will be under an extreme heat warning from 10 a.m. Wednesday to 8 p.m. Friday, the National Weather Service reports. The heat will peak Wednesday into Thursday, with temperatures expected to reach 106 to 118 degrees in those areas. The National Weather Service forecasts Ramona has a 65% chance temperatures could reach over 100 degrees on Thursday. When in an area under an extreme heat warning, the National Weather Service advises to limit time spent outdoors, drink plenty of water, wear lightweight and loose-fitting clothing and to keep an eye out for signs of heat exhaustion and heat stroke. Public cooling centers are available in San Diego County for anyone needing a safe place to stay while extreme heat warnings are in place. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.

Tourists in Japan's sweltering heat try to stay cool in Kyoto
STORY: :: Tourists in Kyoto sweat it out as a relentless heat wave grips the city :: Kyoto, Japan :: Anna Krzeminska-Kaczynska, Tourist 'I expected that it's going to be hot. I've been to India, so, and other places in Asia, so I have an understanding of this heat, but this experience is really, really amazing in a sense that I am sweating from top down every single day. I need to drink a lot of water, not to dehydrate. I put a lot of, you know, sunscreen as well, okay." :: August 3, 2025 :: On Sunday temperatures hit just over 100 degrees Fahrenheit weather authorities say :: Garett Smith, Tourist 'So I guess I didn't realise how hot it was going to be or realise, like, yeah, just how hot it was going to be. I thought it was going to be more similar to Chicago heat and humidity and (it's) totally different. Totally different.' Japan's meteorological agency issued a heat advisory for Kyoto via its official website on Sunday, reminding city-goers to take "appropriate action" and stay hydrated to avoid heatstroke. Kyoto itself hit a staggering 40 degrees Celsius (104 Fahrenheit) on Wednesday (July 30), while the country's hottest temperature on record, 41.2 degrees Celsius (106.2 Fahrenheit), was observed in Tamba city of western Hyogo Prefecture on the same day, meteorological authorities reported.

In Southwest Michigan, erosion is taking away beaches, backyards more and more every year
In Southwest Michigan along the Lake Michigan shoreline, full- and part-time residents are losing more of their backyards every year — and the changing climate and weather patterns are making the problem worse. Those residents are now taking action to try to prevent the erosion. On average, Southwest Michigan loses more than a foot of shoreline every year. But one specific area lost 75 feet in four years. A steep drop, and some broken beach access stairs stuck in the sand, are signs of a beach that no one can access anymore. John Yellich, the retired former head of the Michigan Geological Survey, is behind the first research done on erosion in Southwest Michigan in almost a decade. He fought for the research and funding he fought because of the significant erosion issues tracked in the area. "What we wanted to do is to be able to study areas, and what was causing those changes," Yellich said. "Put a sand pile on the beach, and it's fine. Pour water on it with a cup, and all of a sudden, it disappears." Coastal erosion is behind about $500 million a year in property loss in the United States, according to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. Residents, such as Victoria Turbov and John Barkley, have been witnessing the land loss firsthand. They started speaking up. "As a Navy pilot, I'm used to panic, but I panicked. So there were some days here where we lost several feet. We saw the boardwalk collapse into the lake. We saw part of our drain system collapse into the lake," said Barkley. "People bought homes there based on their ability to have lake access from their homes, and once the bluff started to erode, they lost that access." The research into erosion along Lake Michigan brought together Illinois, Indiana, Wisconsin, and Michigan geologists and geography experts. The research focuses on Mount Pleasant in Allegan County, and Miami Park in South Haven, Michigan. Images from their published research dating back to 2017 document the land loss. "The [Army] Corps of Engineers would say that we could expect erosion at a rate of one foot per year, so we were expecting a creeping one foot," said Barkley. "But what we learned is it goes in spurts, so that over time it might be an average of one foot, but over the last three years — from maybe 2020 to 2022 or 2023 — we lost about 75 feet." Turbov has summered along the Lake Michigan shoreline in Southwest Michigan since she was two years old. She has had a front row seat to changes for more than 70 years. "This is very precious to us, because we don't want this bluff to collapse," she said. Now, thanks to the work proving erosion is worsening, Turbov's 100-year-old neighborhood is doing work to bolster itself. "It's a fight to keep the water off the cliff," she said. Turbov led the work in his own neighborhood about half a mile down the road. "It used to be a vertical drop, but once we sculpted it, then we were able to vegetate it with deep-rooted plantings," said Barkley. Planting those specific types of plants used in those deep-rooted plantings, implementing water management systems, making changes to their irrigation system, and reinforcing the beach with rocks are all solutions to an erosion problem with a connection to our changing climate. "It's gotten worse because of the climate, and we are just more aware. This was not on people's radars 20 years ago," said Turbov. "Now we're coming to see, as most people are, we need to protect this place and other places and, you know, our environment in general." As we track warming global temperatures, rising sea levels, and lake levels for the matter, experts say our coastlines and shorelines are paying the price. "But the whole bottom line is that, yes, these are dramatic changes, not slow," said Yellich. "Major rainfalls, major droughts, and sometimes, of course, when you get the drought and a lot of rain, it doesn't soak in, so it runs off." While the EPA has tracked the cost of the problem, local and national EPA offices confirmed they are not doing any work targeting erosion right now. And Yellich emphasized that when it comes to erosion, the problem is not going to go away. "It's just something that isn't going to change, and it's going to continue to happen," he said. But in Southwest Michigan, experts and residents say doing nothing is not an option — with all the beautiful landscapes that are eroding away already serving as a warning. "I'm saying that this is an example of what catastrophic things can happen if you don't do the right things," Yellich said. City and Township officials in the area that is the focus on this story didn't respond to requests related to this story.
