Good Morning, everyone. Looks like we're in for a respite from both the high heat and humidity today as our dueling forecasts are only in disagreement over whether it'll be partly sunny or partly cloudy. Today also marks the beginning of a nice cooldown over the next three days. It's a far cry from the forecast back in 1995 when one of the deadliest heat waves in the city's history began.
