live look at rio de janeiro, it's darker over there. >> it's the sun going down earlier, but speaking of torches, things heating up and the humidity, until the rain came. >> like a tropical rainforest today, it felt like it, at least, and we're still watching the storms rolling through some areasing and as you can see, north of bridgewater stretching up to the edge of plymouth county and in providence with the heavy downpours and don't have warnings or advisories or watches posted right now, but you can see how strong it was that hugged the mass pike and headed to southeast and we should be down within the next hour or so with 20 minutes to ducksbury and an hour before it gets to the canal if it holds together that long. these storms have been picky and choosey where they ended up and

downpours that moved through earlier today, but they didn't amount to very much or last very long. the forecast models have been really overdoing the storms, but i show you this to give you an idea that it's not completely out of the question as we head through the evening hours with an isolated shower or storm across the south coast, cape cod or the islands overnight tonight. again, won't last for long or amount for much. highs today, a hot one, and once clouds, 90 in new bedford and nashua and the dew points were high, and i say 60 degrees is a good threshold and anything above that is humid and when we get above 70 degrees, that is when it feels like a florida afternoon. to put it in perspective for you, this is where we were today and this is where we'll be tomorrow and we keep that humidity in check, sunday, monday, tuesday and doesn't

not the greatest thing with severe weather with the fronts that can come through in the summertime, but behind it, less humid air that charges in. i think maybe a few clouds as we get into tomorrow afternoon, but other than that, it's another one of the summer stunners in store for us, not just to wrap up the weekend but also for monday or tuesday. this is vacation week and it looks good for the first half of the week. we get another chance of rain on wednesday, but, again, it's just not going to be a drought showers and storms, again, in the forecast and will take the remnants of the tropical storm to bust the drought and we're so far in the hold at this point. very clear tonight, mild and 70 degrees for a low in boston, so doesn't cool off very much tonight and tomorrow, mostly sunny and lower the humidity and highs topping out in the mid-80s with a great beach day with the water temperatures 70 to 73 and

afternoon. and it's a great day to celebrate national golf month. that's august for you. on the 7 on 7 forecast, the temperatures near 90 degrees and a little bit of question what happens at the end of the week, but now hot, humid and scatter at longhorn, steak is all you need.

perfectly seasoned sirloin with your choice of side. plus an appetizer or a dessert. all with fresh salad and unlimited bread. the great american steak dinner, for 12.99. tonight, only at longhorn steakhouse. you can't fake steak. and for lunch try our steakhouse burger or any steakhouse lunch combo starting at $7. creamy swirls of pure indulgence.
