The capital city is under an excessive heat warning, with temperatures predicted to reach the mid-90s to around 100 again today. Given the humidity, the heat index could approach or exceed 110 in certain areas, which is likely to make the weather unbearable and dangerous. The warning issued for D.C. and the eastern regions suggests that the heat wave is expected to persist from noon until 8 p.m.
In addition to this, a possibility of strong to severe thunderstorms rolling in by afternoon and evening has also been signaled. This combination of excessive heat followed by storms makes it essential for individuals to be prepared and stay safe to mitigate against potential adverse weather conditions.
Detailed forecasts suggest residents should prepare for a day of sweltering heat followed by possible late afternoon storms. With strong southerly breezes, cloud cover should not darken skies until the likelihood of thunderstorms later in the day. However, few thunderstorms may turn severe by the end of the day with wind gusts near 60 mph and heavy downpours. To tackle this, everyone around is advised to be prepared and stay updated for the forthcoming conditions.
As night falls, these thunderstorms could sustain, taking us into the early hours of tomorrow. The situation around uncertainty, the intensity of the storm, and its longevity, suggests that caution is necessary.
Despite the heat retreating over the weekend, the humidity is expected to hang tough. A weather system approaching from the Midwest further increases the chance of shower and storm development. While showers will scatter and storms likely to kick off from afternoon hours, the threat of intense storms is towards the highest we have seen recently.
Although Sunday promises a slight decline in temperature, with high temperatures making the upper 80s and lower 90s, the chance of hit-or-miss showers and storms almost anytime during the day threatens the region. However, only one or two stronger storms appear to be possible posing a much lower threat. Even this rain threat might not lead to a significant change in the current drought conditions, with only around a tenth of an inch of rain being anticipated in most spots.
Early next week presents slightly better conditions, with greater sunshine and lower humidity. However, temperatures are expected to hover around 90, with a few stray showers possible.
However, caution is advised as the unpredictability of the weather situation warrants continued monitoring of the forecasts and preparing accordingly.
