BALTIMORE — It was a nice cooler start to the week, but that will change quick. Highs surge with readings in the mid to upper 90s by the middle of the week. Wednesday could be another record-high temperature. Currently, we are projecting 100 degrees with the record being 99 degrees set back in 1954. The heat index is expected to get into the 105 range that day too. Scattered storms and showers are expected to cool us back into the upper 80s by the end of the week. Next weekend is hot again, just not as oppressively hot and humid. Rain chances may sweep in towards the tail-end of the weekend.
