Skies will remain mostly clear overnight with temperatures dropping into the mid 70s.

The rest of the work week will be very similar to today. Low temperatures will be in the mid 70s with highs in the mid 90s, feeling closer to the triple digits.

There is a low end storm chance for the entire week, although storms remain isolated and most people will remain dry. Gardeners will likely need to continue watering their plants most days.

The mostly clear skies this week will be perfect for star gazers hoping to catch a glimpse of the comet Neowise. The comet will become more visible in the evenings this week when looking northwest after sunset.
