Hot and dry conditions are expected to persist in the region. This will lead to an increased risk of wildfires, particularly on Thursday and Friday, due to breezy winds and low humidity. Temperatures are forecast to remain high, reaching triple digits for much of the area.

The heat index is expected to range from 100 to 108 degrees each day. Further details on the weather forecast are available from Meteorologist Sean Ryan's Tuesday Evening Forecast on FOX 44 News.
