Heading into the weekend....

Scattered storms return to the forecast today after a hot and mainly dry Thursday. A few storms could be severe today. Damaging winds will be the biggest threat with some hail potential too.

For the final weekend in July, look for highs in the low and mid 90s with a few afternoon storms remaining possible.

Next week is looking unsettled with good daily storm chances Monday onward. Highs will ease down a bit as well due to more clouds and storms.

Hot and humid..... better storm chances ahead...

Another hot day today across the region with highs in the mid 90s. Heat index values will likely meet or exceed 100 at this this afternoon. A few storms will also fire with the daytime heating.
