Weather

Monday saw a bit better coverage of scattered showers and storms across the Tri-State. However, some areas still missed out on the rain, and virtually all locations saw afternoon temperatures reach well into the 90s. This trend will continue through Friday, then the weekend presents a better opportunity for showers and storms, along with cooler temperatures.

The week ahead will feature continued hot temperatures with higher humidity and a chance for storms each day. However, storms will be of the scattered variety until the weekend, when storm coverage should be greater and temperatures will not be quite as hot.

Following a scorched Fourth of July, the heat does not back down anytime soon. However, humidity and storm chances will both return in the week ahead.

Hot temperatures will persist through the Fourth of July weekend and well into next week. The only thing that may hamper the heat some is the opportunity for scattered showers and thunderstorms, which will return to the forecast on Monday.

Shower and storm chances continue for the next couple of days before heat becomes the main story heading into the Fourth of July weekend, and even into the start of next week.

Following widespread showers and thunderstorms on Sunday, rain chances will be more of the “scattered” variety in the days ahead. Temperatures begin to heat up into the Fourth of July weekend as well.

Periods of showers and thunderstorms are expected on Sunday which will keep temperatures down. However, as storm chances diminish day by day through the week ahead, temperatures will start to heat back up into the Fourth of July weekend.

As humidity cranks up, along with a few passing systems, storms will be in the forecast through the weekend time frame and into the start of next week. However, there will still be dry hours each day.
