Synopsis:
Today will be the last day of the heat. It’ll be mostly sunny, hot and humid. The heat index will be near 100º.
A cool front will approach later today this will result in spotty storms developing later this afternoon. Torrential rain is possible in any of the storms. On and off showers with local downpours are likely Saturday. Since the ground is saturated in many areas from Henri’s passage last weekend a Flash Flood Watch has been posted for most of NJ. One to three inches of rain is possible in spots.
Sunday will be the better half of the weekend. A mix of sun and clouds is expected with readings near the average high of the lower 80s.
Warmer and more humid conditions will return for the beginning of the week.
