Washington, D.C. Weather Forecast: Heat Wave Timeline to 'Feels Like' 109 Degrees

Sunday will be hot, again, and Monday will be worse. Here's the latest Washington, D.C. Weather Forecast.

Sunday will be another hot day across the region, but the larger threat will come Monday, when we could see record-breaking temperatures.

Before this heat wave is over, we'll see the heat index, or "feels like" temperature, reach 109 degrees, according to the National Weather Service.

If the actual temperature hits 100 degrees, it would be the first time since July 2012, according to The Weather Channel.

"With no strong pushes of cool air from Canada on the horizon, people from the mid-Atlantic to the Deep South can expect virtually no relief from the high heat and humidity," Elliott said.
