ISSUED BY NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CHARLESTON WV
1240 AM EDT WED JUN 25 2025
DISCUSSION
THE ONGOING HEAT WAVE WILL REACH ITS PEAK INTENSITY
TODAY, COURTESY OF A STRONG UPPER LEVEL RIDGE. TEMPERATURES ARE
EXPECTED TO SOAR INTO THE MID 90S FOR MANY LOCALES THIS AFTERNOON;
BUT, DUE TO THE HUMIDITY, IT WILL FEEL CLOSER TO 105F. THOUGH MAINLY
DRY WEATHER IS EXPECTED THROUGH THURSDAY MORNING, A VERY ISOLATED
POPUP SHOWER OR THUNDERSTORM CANNOT BE ENTIRELY RULED OUT IN THE
INTERIM. BETTER SHOWER AND THUNDERSTORM CHANCES, AS WELL AS A
COOLING TREND, RETURN TO THE FORECAST FROM THURSDAY AFTERNOON ONWARD
AS THE UPPER LEVEL PATTERN RELAXES.
