A Scorcher Friday…

 

Synopsis:

Today will be day two of the heat wave as the Bermuda High remains parked off the Southeast coast. It’ll be quite hot and humid. The heat index will reach between 100º-106º.  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.

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.

Comfortable conditions will be with us as we turn the page to August. The sun will dominate.

Stay tuned.

Keep it here for a no nonsense, no hype forecast.
