Lows tonight dip to the low 60s with a clear sky.
Tuesday brings upper 80s, which is very close to the record of 90° from 2022. We'll be mostly sunny in the afternoon as light winds persist.

The UV index is "high" from 11:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. (sunburn in 30 minutes) and "moderate" as early as 10:00 a.m. and as late as 4:00 p.m. (sunburn in 45 minutes) so sunscreen and a hat are a good idea.
