Beginning of a Heat Wave…

 

Synopsis:

Today will be day one of what looks to be a long hot stretch of days. A bubble of hot air will work into the region as a Bermuda high sets up shop until further notice. The hottest temperatures of the season so far are expected as a heat wave grips the region. Heat Index will approach 100º Wednesday and Thursday. Scattered storms are possible late in the day Thursday as a weak front works through from the West.

The hot temperatures will stick around into the upcoming weekend.

Please take it slow outdoors. Drink plenty of fluids. Check on the elderly and pets. Listen to your body, if you feel dizzy or fatigue take a break and try to stay in air-conditioned or cooler areas.

Stay tuned.
