Warm weather will arrive early next week, the Weather Service says, forecasting a heat index for Albany of 98 degrees Fahrenheit on Sunday, 108 degrees on Monday, and 106 degrees on Tuesday.
The “feels like” reading is supposed to decrease slightly on Tuesday to 107 degrees in Albany, which is still in the “danger” zone where heat cramps or heat exhaustion is likely and heat stroke is possible with physical activity, according to the Weather Service.
