Temperatures of 100 degrees-plus will spread across the Baltimore-area Tuesday and continue through the middle of the week.

The National Weather Service expects temperatures to reach 103 degrees Tuesday, with the heat index reaching as high as 107. On Wednesday, temperatures are expected to again eclipse 100, according to the NWS.

The service has issued a heat advisory for the Baltimore/Washington, D.C., region, meaning the duo of hot temperatures and high humidity “will combine to create a situation in which heat illnesses are possible payday loans guaranteed no fax.” The NWS advises people drink plenty of fluids, stay in air-conditioned rooms and stay out of the sun.

The record-high temperature for downtown Baltimore on July 6 is 104 degrees, according to Weather.com. The average is 90 degrees.
