d.c., baltimore, new york, philly through boston and providence, nice in chicago, too. southeasteal with thunderstorms. you're definitely going to be hot and humid. especially areas like atlanta this weekend. as we go into saturday, 93 in atlanta. dallas tomorrow like today, 108. kansas city's warm along with our friend in denver. as we go into sunday, we'll have probably the worst day from new england all the way down to the mid-atlantic. it's not going to be a horrible day. we will see clouds in the afternoon with showers and a few thunderstorms. we cool it off, only 106 in dallas on sunday. >> i was going to see that's good news for them, 106, down from 110. thank you very much. >>> time for sports now. tiger woods, the opening round of the bridgestone invitational in akron, ohio. his first round of competitive golf since problems with his knee and achilles forced him to miss. nearly three months -- hasn't played since may. yesterday, tiger looking pretty healthy. the putter was working. it's been a problem for him lately. on 16, the long birdie putt. he drains the 31 footer.

southeast right into the weekend. you notice that it gets cooler in the northeast midwest. in fact, we're looking for a pattern change. look at this. warmest month on record, july 2011 in d.c., philly and baltimore. a nice change on the ridge. big ridge of high pressure that's been so dominant. upper level winds will dive further southward through parts of the northwest. widespread 80s all the way down into tennessee and parts of georgia, so that is going to be a very nice change. as far as what's going on with tropical storm emily, it's still disorganized. there's an area of convection, and the center is right in here. it's headed towards hispaniola. how much land will it see and that could mean very heavy rain for them. it will probably be a weaker circulation that could even kill the system. if it does manage to emerge from hispaniola and come up towards the bahamas, it will have an opportunity to become stronger, may become a stronger tropical storm and possibly even a hurricane and certainly could threaten the southeast part of the u.s. so a lot to figure out here, tamron, over the next few days as we continue to watch that system. back to you. >> thank you, carl, very much. >> you bet. >>
