CWG Live updates: Heat stays strong today; much cooler Friday
Welcome to updated around-the-clock by Capital Weather Gang meteorologists. Happening now: The humidity today may be the highest of the heat wave, as afternoon highs in the mid-90s feel like 105 or so. Heat advisory runs from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. Like yesterday, some spots could see a late-day storm. What's next? The heat wave finally breaks tomorrow with highs in the upper 70s to mid-80s. But we're back up to near 90 this weekend as daily storm chances continue. Today's daily digit — 2/10: Hot and steamy yet again with hit-or-miss late-day storms. But at least it's the last day of this heat wave. | 🤚 Your call? The digit is a somewhat subjective rating of the day's weather, on a 0-to-10 scale. Forecast in detail Today (Thursday): Partly to mostly sunny skies push afternoon highs into the mid-90s. Humidity is still painfully high, resulting in a heat index as high as about 107. Another fire-up of scattered late-afternoon storms is likely, with downpours to provide some cooling. Confidence: Medium-High Tonight: Scattered storms could linger well into the evening, perhaps not dying down until around midnight. Overnight lows fall to the low to mid-70s. Confidence: Medium-High Tomorrow (Friday): A weak cool front slips into the area from the northeast and should be just strong enough to limit highs to the upper 70s to mid-80s. Despite the cool down, scattered showers and storms are possible again, especially in the afternoon. Confidence: Medium Tomorrow night: Any storms should dissipate during the evening. Still rather muggy overnight with lows near 70 to the low 70s. Confidence: Medium A look ahead The weekend is fairly typical for the heart of summer. Both days should see afternoon highs in the upper 80s to low 90s and nighttime lows in the upper 60s to low 70s. Humidity is still on the high side and should help to set off a few afternoon or evening thunderstorms so be on the lookout. Confidence: Medium A cold front slowly approaches Monday and Tuesday, which could result in even more numerous afternoon and evening storms. Still humid as highs continue in the upper 80s to low 90s, with lows in the upper 60s to low 70s. Confidence: Medium Wednesday and Thursday look drier and somewhat less humid for a change with highs in the 80s.
