Luckily, the humidity is still low, so the feels-like temperatures will remain within a few degrees of the ambient temperature.

Light winds, sunny skies, and hot temperatures are also leading to an Ozone Action Day for Sunday. It will be unhealthy outdoors this afternoon for sensitive groups, including the elderly and those with upper respiratory issues.
