11:18 pm
the feels-like temperature was actually lower than the actual air temperature all day long. we have a very dry atmosphere out there. but we do have some rain in the offing. this is our realistic forecast model. you can see the sky with rain out toward the southern poconos. mount pocono, 59 right now with scattered showers in the region. allentown 64. 71 in philadelphia right now. 68 in dover. mount holly at 62. atlantic city coming in at 69 degrees. so here's the question, sizzling or soggy for the holiday weekend. how about we answer it right now. it's going to be hot and humid. we're looking at the 80s and 90s friday through tuesday. it will be sticky and humid as all that moisture makes its way into the area. we'll probably see a feels-like temperature at or above the actual air temperature. the dry air mass will be long gone by then. we will see a front, a frontal boundary that will move through the area triggering a few showers and storms. the best chance will be isolated storms on friday and saturday.
11:19 pm

11:20 pm
early, early in the morning before dawn. otherwise, at this point, it looks like isolated only for tomorrow. upper 70s, low 80s across the area. we are going to be looking at temperatures that are going to be near 80 again on wednesday. beautiful sunshine with the west-to-northwest wind. thursday, stellar in the 80s. the frontal boundary will bring the chance of showers and storms. 78 in fairmont tomorrow. easton, you will see 78. popular number. robbinsville, 71. dover, 80 degrees out there. here's your ten-day on 10. we'll be looking at the upper 70s and low 80s tomorrow. we could see an isolated shower. 81 on wednesday. 89 on thursday. more humidity moves in. 92 on saturday. could see a shower or storm both of those days. and take a look at what's going on for sunday. we get more showers and storms
11:21 pm
