Partly to mostly cloudy skies are in the forecast for this afternoon with the southeast wind bringing up more moisture and humidity from the Gulf of Mexico, highs today will reach the upper 70s to lower 80s. Scattered to numerous rain showers and storms will develop into the afternoon and evening hours with some storms producing locally heavy rainfall, frequent lightning, gusty winds and small hail.

Tuesday will also be partly to mostly cloudy with slightly cooler highs in the middle to upper 70s, isolated showers and storms may develop form late morning into the afternoon.
