Tonight: Play it cool by staying cool / Photo

Malory Cameron, left and Patty Condry, both of Newport, cooled off today by jumping off the Van Zandt Pier, Washington Street, Newport. Cameron, a bartender, and Condry, who works banquets, said the still-cold water felt great.

It's 94 degrees out -- as of 7 p.m.

So it's probably best to play it cool tonight by staying cool.

It's been a day of record-breaking temperatures. More unseasonally high heat is in tomorrow's forecast.

Tomorrow is expected to be sunny with a high near 95 degrees. But the today's northwesterly winds will swing around to the southwest. And heat index values could make it feel as high as 101, according to the National Weather Service.

Seek refuge in air-conditioning, if you can, before a cold front begins to move in later this week.

Tomorrow night there is a chance of scattered thunderstorms, largely between 9 p.m. and 2 a.m. Wednesday.

For those who do plan to venture out tonight, check projo.com's club listings. Sorry, you'll have to call ahead to find out about that air conditioning.
