CHARLESTON, S.C. (WCSC) - Heat advisory issued for Tuesday between 11 a.m. and 7 p.m. We expect a very hot Tuesday on the way with heat index values between 105 and 110. Higher numbers also possible depending on location. Actual air temperatures will be near 95 to 96 degrees. A better chance of storms will arrive late Tuesday as a cold front approaches the area. This front will help to bring an end to the oppressive heat as we head into the middle of the work week. Highs will be near 90 degrees Wednesday and Thursday. Drier weather will begin returning to the area on Friday, lowering the rain chance, and allowing temperatures to begin climbing toward the mid 90s once again.

TROPICS: We’ll keep an eye on two tropical waves near the coast of Africa this week. Both have a low chance of development over the next 7 days. We’ll keep you updated!

TUESDAY: Sun & Clouds. Scattered Rain/Storms. High 96, Low 77.
