    WILMINGTON, N.C. (WECT) - Intense heat stays out of your First Alert Forecast for the rest of the work and school week, with daily high temps in the 80s to around 90 and nightly lows generally around 70.

    WILMINGTON, N.C. (WECT) - Tuesday and the rest of the week, like most of the summer, flirts with First Alert Weather Days. Heat won’t be as crazy as weeks past, at least, with daily high temps remaining in the 80s to near 90... and feels likes in the sweaty but reasonable 90s to near 100. The intense heat is broken. The storm pattern? Not so much... Chances vary from 10 to 20% early to 50 to 60% in the afternoon. Keep an extra close eye out after school! pic.twitter.com/ApB5waMalh Locally strong

    WILMINGTON, N.C. (WECT) - You’ll need to brace for another day of stressful to dangerous heat Tuesday, with feels-like temperatures close to 105. Humidity will stay crazy high all week and, with it, popup storm chances: 20% Tuesday, 50% Wednesday, 30% Thursday, and 50 to 60% Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. Good news!

    WILMINGTON, N.C. (WECT) - Take care of yourself, your neighbors, and pets. Your First Alert Forecast opens with intense heat index values like 108, 110, and 112 Tuesday and settles only to slightly more reasonable levels like 102, 104, and 106 by Thursday and Friday. Wilmington's had a heat index in the 110s several times during this sweltering summer, and today's likely to make it one more... pic.twitter.com/YlatrHPjYL On storms...

    First Alert Forecast: heat to intensify locally, tropics show faint pulse (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Neutral tone · English

    WILMINGTON, N.C. (WECT) - A suite of First Alert Weather Days is in place as heat intensifies this week. Tuesday and several days after will be not as stormy and feel more like the middle 100s to around 110. Take care at the job site and on the practice field! In the tropics, a wave of low pressure approaching the Caribbean and riding north of Bermuda both have limited development windows this week. Closer to Africa, another westbound wave may have a better environment in which to grow by this w
