Scattered showers and thunderstorms Monday night will bring heavy downpours and break the heat but not the humidity.

The heat breaks Tuesday, as temps only warm into the low 80s but the mugginess persists for another day. Showers and storms stay in the forecast, the greatest threat being heavy rain and flooding. More than two inches of rain is possible through Wednesday. The forecast turns drier and milder midweek as skies clear Wednesday afternoon into Thursday.

Tuesday: Partly to mostly cloudy, scattered showers and storms, high of 80.

Wednesday: Morning showers and storms, high of 78.

Thursday: Mostly sunny, high of 80.
