Smoky conditions today with an Air Quality Alert until Noon on Tuesday. We heat up this week with upper 80s likely today - although cooler lakeside. We hit the 90s on Tuesday and stay in the 90s through Friday. Some relief possible lakeside. High dewpoints near 70 for a few days will make things feel even hotter. Take care.

Air quality, heat a dangerous combination
