Synopsis:
It’s the beginning of a heat wave as high pressure off the coast becomes a Bermuda high. This is typical for this time of the year. Today and Friday will be quite hot and humid under hazy skies. The heat index will reach between 100º-106º both days. Please drink plenty of fluid, try to stay out of the heat of the day between 11am-4pm. Wear light weight, light colored clothing. Check on the elderly and pets often.
There is a storm threat for later today into this evening as a weak front approaches from the West. Some of the storms maybe severe. Eye to the sky for threatening weather after 3pm.
On Saturday a cool front will approach later in the day with a scattered storm. It’ll still be hot.
Relief will arrive on Sunday as a Canadian airmass moves in. Temperatures will be near the seasonable averages of the mid 80s.
Stay tuned.
