Today will be sunny and hot, with highs around 90 degrees, according to the National Weather Service in Wilmington.

There is an Air Quality Alert in effect today for Butler and Warren counties, issued by the Southwest Ohio Air Quality Agency. During the alert, the agency said it expects ground-level ozone to reach or exceed unhealthy standards, especially for sensitive groups like children, elderly adults and people with respiratory or cardiac disease.

Residents can help reduce air pollution by reducing or avoiding using gas-powered vehicles or appliances during daylight hours, avoiding using oil-based paint or stain and never burning yard debris.

Overnight, it will be mostly clear and cool, with lows around 60 degrees.

Clouds will gradually increase during the day on Thursday, though highs will again reach the upper 80s, at around 87 degrees. It will be mostly cloudy overnight with lows around 65 degrees.

Rain chances start Thursday night, with the tri-state area most likely to see showers.

There will be a slight chance of showers during the day on Friday, and a chance of showers after midnight. Otherwise it will be mostly cloudy, with high around 83 degrees and a low around 64 degrees.
