Scattered showers across South Florida late morning into the afternoon

Grab an umbrella before you head out the door because scattered showers and storms are in the forecast for Tuesday.
The NEXT Weather team tracked a few showers across the area in the early morning hours, and additional rain is on the way, especially for the late morning through early afternoon.
Keep an umbrella handy.
NEXT Weather
The combination of rain and clouds should help to keep temperatures in the mid to upper 80s across the area, but "feels like" temperatures will climb to the mid to upper 90s.
The chance of rain trends even higher for Wednesday and Thursday as showers will grow more widespread throughout the afternoon hours on both days. While isolated storms with heavy downpours, lightning and strong wind can't be ruled out, the overall severe weather threat is low.
Another round of Saharan dust will arrive late week.
NEXT Weather
Saharan dust, which hung over South Florida late last week into the weekend, has cleared out, but another round is set to arrive late Thursday into Friday. This next batch of dust is expected to linger throughout the upcoming weekend and will help to reduce the chance of rain to 20% for Sunday - Father's Day.
Afternoon highs will remain in the upper 80s through the next seven days.

Dangerous heat wave to envelop 170 million Americans through late June

A massive heat dome enveloping much of the central and eastern U.S. this week will lead to levels of heat and humidity not seen in June in many years, warn AccuWeather meteorologists. High temperatures approaching and even exceeding 100 degrees are expected over more than three dozen states stretching from the Plains to New England through at least the middle of the week, challenging many long-standing records. There will be little relief at night, with some urban areas failing to fall below 80 for multiple nights in a row, increasing the risk of heat-related ailments such as heat exhaustion or stroke. Extreme heat builds east The heat dome that will envelop the East has its origins in the Plains and Midwest, where readings in the 90s and even above 100 have been commonplace since late last week. The core of this extreme heat will build east this week, warn AccuWeather meteorologists. "Dangerous heat will maximize across much of the Northeast and mid-Atlantic early this week," said AccuWeather Meteorologist Jacob Hinson. "Bright sun and humid conditions will cause AccuWeather RealFeel® Temperatures to peak above 100 degrees for millions." In major cities such as Washington, D.C., Baltimore, Philadelphia and New York, the mercury is forecast to get very close to or even hit 100 for a few days, through at least Tuesday, which would mark the first time for some in many decades since triple-digit heat has been experienced in June. Even parts of eastern and northern New England, including Boston and Portland, Maine, which are sometimes excluded from extreme heat domes, will come within a few degrees of 100 when the heat peaks on Tuesday. At night, temperatures will struggle to fall below 80 in many urbanized areas, especially along the Interstate 95 corridor in the mid-Atlantic. To put in context how unusual this is for the month of June, in both Newark, New Jersey, and Philadelphia, there has never been a two-day stretch where low temperatures were 80 or higher, which AccuWeather is forecasting this week for three consecutive nights in both cities. While the heat will not be as extreme farther west across wide swaths of the interior Northeast, Ohio Valley, Midwest and Tennessee Valley regions, the mercury will still reach well into the 90s under the dome through at least midweek. This includes large metropolitan areas such as Cincinnati, Detroit, Indianapolis, Memphis, Pittsburgh and St. Louis. In Chicago and New York, the AccuWeather HeatWave Severity Index™, a scale that tracks the duration and severity of heat waves, indicates that the ongoing or forthcoming heat spell into this week will be worse than any experienced since the scale's inception in 2023. As Hinson pointed out, humidity will also play a role in how hot it will feel this week. AccuWeather RealFeel® Temperatures of over 100 will become common outside of normally cooler mountainous areas into midweek, and they could be as high as 110-115 degrees in the mid-Atlantic away from the coast. Cooling thunderstorms can offer brief reprieves from the heat, but not the humidity, in some areas this week. In addition to gusty storms on the periphery of the heat dome from the Plains to New England, pop-up thunderstorms can bubble up and fizzle out in a random nature, especially across the South. A more significant intrusion of thunderstorm activity is expected to unfold along a battle zone on the heat dome's northeastern periphery from the Great Lakes to the Northeast and northern mid-Atlantic beginning Wednesday. With more cloudiness and rain in the forecast then, temperatures will come down from their peaks on Monday and Tuesday, but still likely run well into the 90s for most in the mid-Atlantic. Heat is the number one weather-related killer Due to its cumulative effect on the human body, prolonged exposure to hot weather can kill. According to Scientific American, extreme heat is the number-one weather-related cause of death in the U.S., and it kills more people most years than hurricanes, floods and tornadoes combined. The risk of death is especially elevated for those who lack air conditioning or work the app? Unlock AccuWeather Alerts™ with Premium+ "Vulnerable people, such as the elderly or young children, are most susceptible to heat-related illness," said Hinson. "Caution should be taken if spending any appreciable amount of time outside, such as by staying hydrated with non-alcoholic beverages, taking frequent breaks and seeking shade." With the New York City mayoral primary election on Tuesday, those planning on voting in person and possibly waiting in lines outside in the heat should take precautions, such as bringing bottles of water and wearing light-colored, loose-fitting clothing. Ground temperatures in the normally-hotter, pavement-heavy parts of the City on Tuesday can easily top 100, while RealFeels® may reach 105. Outdoor sporting events, from youth to professional leagues, will also be impacted by the extreme heat, even deep into the evening hours, as temperatures will be slow to fall after dark. The safety of pets should also be considered during the heat wave. In many municipalities, such as the entire Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, it is illegal to tether dogs outside in the heat without access to cool water and shelter. For those without consistent access to air-conditioned environments, hundreds of cooling centers are available across all states expected to be impacted by the extreme heat. The National Center for Healthy Housing maintains a webpage with contact information by state to find such cooling centers. Additional tips to stay safe in and beat the heat can be found here.

Arizona weather forecast: Below-normal temps felt in Phoenix

The Brief This weekend, temps are below-normal for this time of year. The low on Sunday, June 22, was 79 in Phoenix. The high was 99. Temperatures stayed cool on Sunday, with a high temperature of only 99 degrees in Phoenix! What we know The cooler-than-normal temperatures will continue for a few more days, with highs hovering just above 100 degrees Monday through Wednesday. Warmer temperatures will return later in the week, as high pressure rebuilds across the southwest. Skies will stay sunny all week in the Valley, with lighter winds than what we experienced this past weekend. The state is looking mostly dry this week, with rain chances staying in far southeast Arizona. There are signs that the monsoon could ramp up at the beginning of July, finally bringing rain across the entire state. You can always check the latest weather conditions by visiting the FOX 10 Phoenix weather page, or download the Free FOX 10 Weather app, which is available on Apple iOS and Android. Scroll down this page for satellite and radar, day planner, records, current temperatures, 10-day forecast, forecast highs, and recent rainfall totals, plus live video feeds. The Arizona Department of Health Services stated the following precautions can be taken to prevent heat exhaustion or heat stroke: Stay in air-conditioned buildings Find a cooling center/hydration station Limit outdoor activity during the hottest part of the day (mid-day) Check on at-risk friends, family, and neighbors at least twice a day Drink water before, during, and after working or exercising outside Check the UV Index Check the heat risk map Call 511 anywhere in Arizona or 1-888-411-ROAD (7623) The Arizona Department of Transportation's tips for driving in extreme temperatures include: Have sun protection: In addition to an umbrella, take sunscreen and a wide-brimmed hat and wear loose-fitting, light-colored cotton clothing. Fuel up: Keep your tank at three-quarters full. Running out of gas, especially in a remote location, is dangerous in extreme heat. Hydrate: Take a cooler to keep extra drinking water cold, and consider adding several frozen bottles of water to use for cooling off or to thaw and drink if needed. Make sure everyone, including pets, stays hydrated. Get help: If your vehicle breaks down in extreme heat, call for assistance right away to reduce wait time, and run the AC. If the AC isn't working, roll down all windows. Wait safely: If the temperature inside your vehicle becomes too hot, everyone, including pets, should exit carefully and seek out or create a shaded area as far away from the travel lanes as possible. Be careful walking on the road surface, which can be hot enough to burn skin. Keep your shoes on and try to keep your pets' paws off the pavement. If you are stopped along the highway, raise the front hood and turn on hazard lights. Please keep in mind that parking in tall brush can start a fire. Check your vehicle: You can help avoid breakdowns and blowouts by making sure your vehicle is in good operating condition. Check your air conditioner and coolant levels, top off any vital engine fluids and make sure your battery is up to par. Check your tire pressure, as the combination of under inflated tires and hot pavement can lead to a blowout. MORE:

400 firefighters now working on southern Utah's Pine Valley fire

PINE VALLEY, Washington County — The battle against the fire on southern Utah's Pine Valley Mountains continues Sunday with 400 firefighters now at the scene. The federal Great Basin Complex Incident Management Team took over command of the blaze, dubbed the Forsyth Fire, on Sunday. The lightning-caused fire remains 0% contained and was last mapped Saturday at 1,640 acres. At last count, 14 homes and cabins and a few outbuildings were destroyed in the wildfire. Crews Saturday 'worked to extinguish hot spots in the valley bottom while continuing structure protection efforts. Over the coming days, operations staff will continue to identify safe and effective opportunities to engage the fire directly and seek containment. Firefighter and public safety are the top priority for this incident,' the team managing the fire said in a news release. Saturday evening, residents in Pinto and Grass Valley Road were urged to evacuate, Utah Fire Info said, after the fire Saturday afternoon 'pushed over a mile north and up over the next ridge, north of Pine Valley.' It was not immediately clear how many more residents are affected. The Pine Valley community evacuation included 450 homes. Fire officials said 'unseasonably dry fuels,' low humidity and strong winds continue to contribute to fire growth. 'Yesterday the fire crossed the main road in Pine Valley and made a run up the ridgetop to the north. (Sunday) will bring a slight relief from the winds the fire has experienced since Thursday. Winds will be out of the northwest in the morning and transition to a southwest wind in the afternoon. Spotting is expected to occur outside of the fire perimeter,' the team said. Gov. Spencer Cox is visiting Pine Valley and will hold a news conference at 2 p.m.
