CWG Live updates: Standard July with heat and storm chances this weekend
Welcome to updated around-the-clock by Capital Weather Gang meteorologists.
Happening now: If you like July weather, this one's for you. Highs around 90, plenty of humidity and a couple late-day storms.
What's next? A better chance of showers and storms Sunday may keep everyone below 90. We are near and above that mark into next week.
Today's daily digit — 6/10: Probably a touch less comfortable than yesterday, which means heat indexes in the mid- to upper 90s in the afternoon. | 🤚 Your call?
The digit is a somewhat subjective rating of the day's weather, on a 0-to-10 scale.
Forecast in detail
Today (Saturday): Mostly to partly sunny with some of those bubbly afternoon clouds. A couple of storms could form in the late-day heat, especially west of the city. Highs reach the upper 80s to lower 90s in most spots. Winds are light out of the southeast. Confidence: Medium-High
Tonight: Any storms die off with sunset. Muggy and warm through the evening, with lows settling in the 70 to 75 range. Confidence: Medium-High
Tomorrow (Sunday): Similar to today, but probably a bit cloudier. Sun gives way to a higher afternoon storm chance. Any storms could produce heavy rain and isolated damaging wind gusts. Temperatures should reach the mid-80s to around 90. Confidence: Medium-High
Tomorrow night: Showers and thunderstorms are possible through late evening, ending by the early overnight. Maybe some patchy fog with lows again largely 70 to 75. Confidence: Medium-High
A look ahead
Showers and storms are a good bet Monday. With a front closer to the region, activity might be more widespread than prior days. With the high humidity in place, downpours are again a threat. Highs should mainly end up in the mid-80s. Confidence: Medium
Sunnier again Tuesday with lower odds of storms. This summer, you can never bet against a storm or two, though. Highs mid-80s to around 90. Confidence: Medium
Near and above 90 should be the rule Wednesday through Friday. Nothing extreme, but pretty standard midsummer. Confidence: Medium
