More of the same...

Wash, rinse, and repeat....the same general forecast ideas are holding steady around the region. We remain in a very warm and humid pattern, and highs today and tomorrow will be in the upper 80s to near 90 in many spots. Both today and tomorrow we will again see scattered showers and storms fire during the afternoon hours, and a couple of storms could be strong to severe.

Any storm is fair game to produce locally heavy rain and frequent lightning. Like we have seen over the past few days, some localized flash flooding issues could arise.

Over the weekend, we will ratchet the heat up a few ticks....lower 90s Saturday and some mid 90s appearing Sunday. The overall number of showers and storms will likely decrease a bit over the weekend, but the storms that do form could pack a punch.

It still looks like we might get a bit of a break from the heat and humidity Monday and Tuesday with some 80s for highs and considerably lower levels of humidity.
