CHARLESTON, S.C. (WCSC) - Even hotter conditions are expected Tuesday when highs will climb into the mid to upper 90s inland with low 90s at the beaches. Heat index levels will range from 100-105 through Tuesday, so be sure to stay hydrated. A weak cold front will slide through Tuesday night helping to reduce the temperatures midweek.

The rain chances will stay very low through the work week but may increase a bit by the weekend.
