through briefly. and most likely the fireworks, they're just fine. they get a green light too. we get up to a high of 82. areas north and west hagerstown martinsburg. mid-80s down to the south. here it is the fourth of july fireworks. again by 9:00 we're mostly going to be looking at some thinning clouds and dry conditions. 9:00, 75 your temperature as we go into early sunday morning, some late-day fog for saturday. 73-76. as we move on into sunday, take a look at these temperatures. while we've been on the cool side we're going to start to see some temperatures closer to 90 degrees start to pop early next week. tuesday, 89. close to 90. we're at 90 i think on wednesday. and even upper 80s for friday this time. so, again, all important, just have a backup plan ready to go there could be a little brief interruption. but fireworks time, we're fine. >> all righty. good to know.
