The showers and thunderstorms that hit the Midwest on Monday may still be around part of Tuesday, but will disappear during the afternoon. Comfortable temperatures around 75 degrees are forecast for the South, 68 to 72 for the Midwest and similar temperatures for the Northeast, while higher temperatures, up to 88 will be found in the east along the coast. While the Southwest may see some rain or even thunderstorms, the rest of the West will be hot with temperatures over 100 degrees and no hope of a cooling shower.
