Overall, we’re looking at a decent afternoon with sunshine and less humid conditions. The only wrinkle in the forecast is the possibility of a stray shower south and west, but that’s about it. As for temps, they’ll be right around normal at 84°. (Credit: CBS2) High pressure will be in better control tonight, so we’re expecting little, if any, in the way of cloud cover. It will be another mild one, too, with temps only falling to around 70°. (Credit: CBS2) Tomorrow’s looking like a July treat as high pressure settles in and delivers a mostly sunny day. And if you like today’s temps, you’ll like tomorrow’s as we take aim for the low to mid 80s again. (Credit: CBS2) After that, the heat and humidity creep back up for the weekend — hello, classic summer weather!

NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) — With school out, summertime is a sweet time for children — literally. A new study out of England found that children consume more sugar in the summer than any other time of the year. It’s easy to understand why. On a sizzling summer day, nothing screams cooling off for kids quite like the ring of a Mister Softee truck. The study from the UK-based MyDentist shows in order to keep kids cavity-free, especially in the summer, kids should pay close attention to their teeth and brushing. MyDentist surveyed 1,000 patients and found the’ll let their kids consume up to five times as much sugar during the summer than they ordinarily would. Some parents polled admitted it’s easy to forget to brush when not in their usual routine. Sometimes, they say it’s just hard to keep kids from sweets. “I check his teeth, I let him brush and then I make sure I brush after him because when he does it by himself he kind of only does the ones in front,” Upper East Side mom Rebecca Hartswell. Experts say it’s best to keep an eye on your little ones when they brush. “The takeaway is, try and watch the frequency, cut down on the frequency, bush when you can,” Dr. Mark Hochberg said. “If you can’t, eat a fruit right after you had something sticky to help self cleanse it.” The study found the major culprits to be sugary drinks and ice cream, which on hot days many kids gravitate towards. Nutritionists say there are plenty of healthy options to keep kids hydrated. “Freezing any food is a great idea,” nutritionist and founder of Real Nutrition NYC Amy Shapiro said. “Making your own ice cream from frozen bananas is always a great idea or finding an ice pop or alternative that doesn’t have any added artificial colors or any added sugars just from a fruit source is a really good option.” Shapiro says having healthy foods on hand for your kid will help keep them from the side effects of sugar. “It’s constant hunger, it’s crankiness, it’s exhaustion, it’s headaches, not sleeping well,” Shapiro said. Experts say it’s okay for your kids to have sugar, just make sure you’re following it up with healthy food and exercise.

Winds across the affected areas are expected to blow between 15 to 30 mph, with gusts in some areas reaching 50 mph, combined with single-digit humidity levels and triple-digit temperatures, forecasters said. Also in effect is an excessive heat warning everywhere in Los Angeles County, including the San Gabriel and Santa Monica Mountains; the San Fernando, San Gabriel, Santa Clarita, Pomona and Antelope valleys; Catalina, L.A.

NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) – With the 4th of July falling on on a Wednesday this year, bargain hunters have had extra time to chase down those deals. “Retailers aren’t doing much in terms of their sales bells and whistles around July 4th,” says shopping expert Trae Bodge of Slickdeals . But don’t worry – there are sales to be had, reports CBS2’s Alex Denis. Macy’s is offering 20 percent discounts and there are deals at Home Depot, Sears, Overstock and Saks Fifth Avenue. And look for discounts in specific categories, like active wear, where shoes and apparel are expected to be discounted 40 to 55 percent. With school out for the summer, gaming deals are popular this month. “A lot of the sales are for members – members of Best Buy, Xbox, PlayStation,” Bodge says. “They’re giving away some free bundles, discounted bundles. Some really good deals to be had there.” And now is the time to stock up on back to school clothes, which should be discounted anywhere from 20 percent off to full-on clearance. “What I’m seeing are really strong apparel deals from those solid kids apparel places like Forever 21, Gymboree, Old Navy,” Bodge says. “But I would hold off on your gear like your backpacks, lunch boxes.” Those items will be marked down in August, with one exception. “My friends at Staples gave me a little heads up, there’s a really good deal at the end of the month — the last two weeks,” Bodge says. “25 percent off of backpacks, with the purchase of select school supplies.” If you’re an Amazon Prime member, take advantage of Prime Day. The exact date is usually a secret but Bodge has the inside scoop. “We think Amazon Prime Day will be around mid-month, around the 16th of July. But you didn’t hear that from me.” What should you buy then? “What we’ve seen on past prime days are sales on their proprietary devices like their Kindles, Echo Dot,” she says. If you’ve got your eye on something specific, set a deal alert on slickdeals.net so you’ll be alerted when the item you want is on sale. And finally, this may be the best deal of all: Best Friends Animal Society says all adoptable pets are free through the 4th of July. Their goal is to send home 10,000 pets in 10 days.
