temperature and the humidity together and we'll see those numbers climb into the afternoon. in fact, peak right before 4:00. by 4:00, 99 degrees is what it will feel like. the actual temperature will be 93 degrees, a very hot and humid day today and it only gets hotter this weekend. that is why we've issued a first alert for dangerous heat for pennsylvania, new jersey, and delaware, for friday, through the weekend, and through monday, that is when we'll see high heat and humidity. feels like 100 to 105 degrees. it looks like it may continue beyond that, too. there have been scattered clouds, not enough to keep the warm up from happening. serious clouds are in western pennsylvania. that is where there are storms we'll be watching the skies this afternoon for a chance of showers and thunderstorms. more likely to happen this evening. the hour by hour forecast shows a 6:30 this evening, pretty quiet, but as we go into the later evening hours, we could see some isolated showers and possibly some thunderstorms. this is showing them into

delaware, and the suburbs and lehigh valley, more likely we'll see stronger storms to the north during the day today. this weekend, pretty quiet when it comes to storms for saturday and sunday but the temperatures soar, in fact, hotter on saturday than on sunday. the humidity will be higher saturday afternoon as well. that 97 will feel like 105 in the afternoon. the suburbs, lehigh valley, south jersey and delaware will all see those very high temperatures and even at the shore, unusually warm, 90 degrees for saturday and again on sunday. a little bit of a break in the temperature on sunday and a break from the humidity from the highest humidity but then it is right back into the area on monday. the temperatures soaring to 98 degrees so i'll have a chance of storms later today. pretty quiet over the weekend for saturday and sunday, then likely to see the late day storms on monday but we will get sunshine before those storms move in. 98 degrees, the high temperature could feel like 105 degrees

monday afternoon. another hot day on tuesday with sunshine and then the temperatures will slowly decline next week but it is going to be steam heat for most of the week. come friday, 90 degrees. showers are possible on friday and behind those showers, temperatures come down just a little bit to break our heat wave for a day and then sunday afternoon, right back up to 90 degrees with a chance of more storms. i'm hillary clinton and i approved this message.
