THURSDAY WEATHER ALERT
The worst of the heat and humidity is expected on Thursday, and we’re on a weather alert as a result. Parts of western New England are under a Heat Advisory for “feels-like” temps in the 95-100F range.
There will also be a chance for an afternoon downpour or storm on Thursday, mainly in the 2-8PM window. Most areas will stay dry, but you should be aware in the case a 30-minute burst of rain impacts your location.
Friday’s storm threat will seep farther east, but the best shot appears pretty late in the day or overnight as a cold front comes through. Storms Friday are once again expected to be isolated in nature, with the biggest concerns being localized downpours, lightning, and gusty winds.
WEEKEND CHANGES
The heat lingers into the weekend but humidity will take a noticeable drop as dew points fall back to around 60. For now we’re favoring generally dry and partly sunny conditions with highs near 90. We’ll keep an eye on Sunday night for a line of showers, with the best chance arriving after dark.
