However, Tuesday will be a different story according to Gibbons.

“We’ll see another chance of showers in the afternoon and the cooler weather will set in the for the rest of the week starting Wednesday and Thursday.“

The hot weather on Sunday also fell short despite daytime highs reaching near 30 degrees.

The record high of 31.9 degrees for May 28 was set back in 1983.

Cooler temperatures in the high teens are expected to roll in by Wednesday with rain predicted in the forecast.
