After a pleasant Father's Day, temperatures will soar across the North Country as high pressure builds over the region, according to the National Weather Service (NWS).

Forecasters predict a high temperature today around 75 with sunny skies and light winds. Overnight the low will be around 61, NWS says.

Worst conditions will begin Tuesday and continue through Thursday with a combination of temperatures above 90 degrees and higher humidity resulting in dangerous heat index values

likely above 100 degrees for some locations.

Overnight temperatures will not sufficiently cool to mitigate heat related impacts, especially for vulnerable populations, NWS says.
