Expect a warm day with a maximum temperature reaching around 36°C (97°F) and a minimum of 25°C (77°F). The day will kick off with sunrise at 5:10 AM and wrap up with a spectacular sunset at 6:53 PM. Those planning outdoor activities can look forward to 13 hours of sunshine, perfect for a hike or picnic. While the chance of precipitation stands at 0%, there is a UV index of 3, so don't forget your sunscreen!
However, as the heat builds, the temperature can feel as high as 40°C (104°F) due to the heat index, especially during peak hours around 12 PM to 3 PM when the humidity dips to 43%. Light winds from the southeast at 8-13 km/h may provide a slight breeze, but it's advisable to stay hydrated!

As we head into Monday, temperatures are predicted to ease a bit, falling to a maximum of 28°C (83°F). This cooler trend comes as light rain showers are expected throughout the day. We're looking at around 2.0 mm of rainfall, which contributes significantly to the humidity levels rising to 89%.
Sunrise will be at 5:11 AM and sunset at 6:52 PM, allowing for ample daylight; however, with the increasing cloud cover likely limiting sunshine opportunities. Winds will be light, with gusts reaching up to 7-14 km/h, and a consistent chance of rain, particularly as the evening approaches.
With these conditions, it's a good time to stay indoors if you're not keen on getting caught in a downpour.
