..HEAT ADVISORY IN EFFECT UNTIL 8 PM EDT SATURDAY
DISCUSSION
GOOD MORNING, HERE IS YOUR FORECAST FOCUSING ON IMPACTS THIS
EVENING THROUGH THE NIGHT OF INDEPENDENCE DAY. THE MAIN CONCERN
THROUGH THE PERIOD WILL BE CONTINUED HEAT RISK ACROSS THE AREA. A
HEAT ADVISORY IS IN EFFECT THROUGH 8PM SATURDAY, INCLUDING
OVERNIGHT. MAX HEAT INDICES TODAY WILL BE BETWEEN 103 AND 107 WITH
LOCALLY HIGHER VALUES DEPENDENT ON CONCRETE/ASPHALT COVERAGE.
TIMING OF MAXIMUM HEAT RISK WILL BE AROUND 4PM THIS AFTERNOON,
WITH A SIMILAR TIMING FOR TOMORROW. TOMORROW'S MAXIMUM HEAT INDEX
WILL REACH BETWEEN 103 AND 106. CONDITIONS WILL REMAIN HOT
OVERNIGHT AS WELL. MINIMUM HEAT INDEX VALUES WILL ONLY DROP TO
AROUND 80 DEGREES AND WILL LEAD TO AN ACCUMULATED HEAT RISK.
ISOLATED TO SCATTERED THUNDERSTORM CHANCES ARE GREATEST THIS
AFTERNOON, PEAKING AROUND 35% AT 5PM AND DECREASING THROUGH THE
EVENING HOURS. STORM COVERAGE WILL BE SPOTTY AND ANY THUNDERSTORM
IS UNLIKELY TO LAST MUCH MORE THAN 1 HOUR. THE MAIN HAZARD WITH
ANY THUNDERSTORM WILL BE LIGHTNING, THOUGH BRIEF LOCALLY GUSTY
WINDS UP TO 40-50MPH MAY BE POSSIBLE. THUNDERSTORM CHANCES FOR
TOMORROW ARE LOWER, WITH MAXIMUM CHANCES OF 10-15% IN THE
AFTERNOON.
WINDS EACH DAY WILL BE LIGHT AND VARIABLE, GENERALLY LESS THAN 5
MPH. THIS MAY MAKE CONDITIONS FEEL HOTTER THAN USUAL AND MAY
REDUCE SWEAT EFFICIENCY. LOW WINDS MAY ALSO CAUSE ISSUES WITH
SMOKE DISBURSAL. SIGNIFICANT FIREWORK SMOKE/HAZE WILL BE SLOW TO
DISPERSE AND MAY SETTLE INTO LOW LYING AREAS THROUGH THE
FOLLOWING EARLY MORNING. THE GOOD NEWS IS THAT RH VALUES SHOULD
REMAIN BELOW 90 PERCENT, EVEN OVERNIGHT. THIS SHOULD LIMIT FOG
FORMATION ON TOP OF HAZE, EXCEPT FOR LOCALIZED LOW LYING AND WET
AREAS.
