because that southwest wind holds more humidity. then into next week potential for a heat wave, whether erika comes to our area or not, we are going to experience more humidity as a result because the low pressure system wherever this thing spins it too is going to pump in a southwest wind and that's going to be loaded with moisture and that's why not necessarily rain at this point in time. but we definitely see the humidity going up. and, of course, if erika comes we change the forecast and we start throwing in some rain. it's a rainmaker not so much a windmaker. 87 for saturday sunshine nice day. 89 on sunday sunshine. beach weekend. monday 91. tuesday 90. wednesday 90. thursday, friday close enough i'll tell you it's going to start heating up out there with the big-time summer heat. >> coming up aces all the way through. >> if you like it. >> one more unofficial weekend of summer and the last -- >> the last weekend in august coming up. >> already? >> yes. > news to you. >> thank you, lonnie. >>> the scenic riverboat ride and gene

i can show you the wide scale wind pattern which is a southwest wind over the next 24 hours to 15 miles per hour. two extra things in play. one, the incredibly rugged terrain peaks and valley, and a very localized area where the wind can be a different direction and also stronger and fires eventually get so big, they create their own weather. so forget about what the forecast is. it's going to do what it wants to do because it is so big. actually so big, kpix 5 hi-def doppler tracking the smoke. it's not rainfall. it's smoke to the south and east of clearlake being picked up on radar. there have been thunderstorms but no rainfall to put it out. most of the storms are over the high sierra above 6,000 feet in elevation. we'll talk about our rain chance and a pretty significant weather change that's coming for the weekend coming up in a few minutes. >>> right now, the drought conditions are fueling at least 18 large wildfires across the state. 8,000 firefighters are working hard to save homes and knock down those flames. several are nearing full containment. wind has carried smoke into con

out across the east we're starting to see these numbers climb, and a southwest wind flow is going to help these numbers rise, and you're going to feel the difference when you head out the door tomorrow morning. right now we do have a southwest wind that's relatively light, but tomorrow they could be gusting as high as 25 miles per hour. and once again it's going to usher in more humid air across the region. high pressure's in control right now, it'll be sliding off to the east, then our focus is on a cold front that's work its way into the great lakes tonight igniting some showers and storms across michigan, heading towards western new york, and it will start to affect our area as we go into tomorrow. out ahead of it, we'll start out with plenty of sunshine in the morning hours and then see a mix of sun and clouds with a chance of pop-up showers. a lot of activity will happen in the early evening to maybe just after sunset. so high temperatures tomorrow mostly in the 90s across the deep south here, 89 in miami tomorrow, some cooler, drier air is going to work in behind that front acr

clouds around and southwest wind that holds the temperatures steady.few more degrees and tip into the upper 60s. another humid day on monday increased it for tuesday and wednesday and thursday. every day this week pretty much on the steamy side. get used to it. here's what's happening on storm scan3. maybe a sprinkle chance up across the northern poconos elsewhere just partly cloudy skies. two disturbances going on way up in the atmosphere not a big organized storm. one over the ohio valley a couple of showers maybe few thunderstorms a larger storm system to the south. bringing some of those clouds and showers into north carolina most of that moisture does stay to the south though but it's been awhile since we had rain. good 10 days since we had measurable rainfall here across the delaware valley. a lot of heat over the central us moves eastward all because the jet stream as it moves farther north and this weather pattern holds in place this we week. so hot, humid conditions out in the tropics starting to heat things up a little bit here's our sickth n

heat is on today, wind out of the southwest fills in. and then you see a possibility of a shower or storm this and another round tomorrow and then wednesday, that's going to be the nice day of the week before the rain is a little bit more widespread. organized low. the may -- it may dip to the south on thursday and friday. a little bit more of a soaking rain that we need. remember that for your planning purposes. also of note, remember the numbers from 90 today to barely hitting 80 on thursday. six, almost 6:15. meg is in for alex. >>> all right. john. let's get to the sky. now, we are going to look outside with mike in chopper 2 over the george washington bridge. >> reporter: not a bad morning heading up to the hudson river. a lot of folks still on vacation. the traffic light here out of the toll plaza. we will zoom in a little bit and a 10 to 15-minute wait to the upper level. and the holland tunnel just a minor delay. >> thanks, mike. now due to a train with mechanical problems at 149 street, downtown two trains are running on the fiv

beaching or boating, here is your sea and sand forecast, southwest winds up to 25 miles an hour, waves two to four feet. water temperatures are 70 to 75 degrees. rip current is moderate risk for today. yesterday with some of the buoys off sandy hook, i saw 77, 78-degree reading. that was before the upwelling started, so a little bit cooler temperatures right at the shore. so if you're out on long island or jersey beaches, temperatures are almost getting low- to mid- 70s in spots as far as the water temperature goes. tonight we go to 72 for the overnight low. tomorrow we're back to 88. sunday looks like a great day. and this is a stretch of 90- degree weather that's going to take us all the way through mid week. so monday we're at 90, but we still get a chance for storms because the humidity is back. tuesday partly sunny and warm, 89. we cut the humidity right back out. spotty storms on wednesday, a high of 86. and that front is strong enough to bring our temperatures down to the low 80s. so while the first few days of august will live up to the dog day reputation, looks like we do have

we start out with winds out of the southwest to a calm wind. we are looking at 70 degrees and a dry humidity at 51%. can you believe that at this hour of the day in august. it's quiet. it's calm. the barometer is rising. everything is pointing to a great day. u.v. index an 8 which means half hour, 45 minutes you get a sunburn, put on the sunscreen, sunblock. it will be nice. air quality moderate. pollen count is high for grasses. if you are allergic to grass pollen, take your medication, you will be fine. 66 out to montauk. a calm wind, southwest wind today. much of the day today a beautiful day in which we see a lot of sunshine. all the way back to the great lakes it is quiet. so, as this spreads eastward, we will have a lot of sunshine. showers and thunderstorms that come with this cold front. they just die out as we go into the weekend. we have 87 today and high-pressure ridge slides eastward, it gets hot, humid. temperature around 90 today and 92 sunday. so, we are look being at sunshine, a warm day. below humidity. the high 87. tonight a g

southwest wind up to about 20 miles an hour. 61 in napa. so these numbers running anywhere from about two to four degrees warmer than yesterday's reading. overall not a whole lot of change. mostly cloudy this afternoon. sunny skies for the afternoon on tap. we will bump up the temperatures a little bit as a ridge of high pressure begins to build. this will take us through about wednesday or thursday. so here is the setup. we've got a situation where we are sandwiched in the middle between a high pressure ridge to the east of us and a trough of low pressure to the west of us. in between that we get the nice onshore flow, the typical summertime pattern. temperatures are ranging, once again, that 30-degree spread. the 60s it he coast to the mid-and upper 80s inland. so just about the same today. nice afternoon in san jose at 81 degrees. 82 los gatos. cupertino checking in around 80. it was olawale yesterday in redwood city, upper 70s today. palo alto 77. look for 73 in san mateo with mid-and upper 60s. mostly cloudy skies at the coast. 69 san

all courtesy of a southwest wind which is relatively light at the moment but that wind direction helps to bring in heat and humidity across the tristate area. so tonight we're going to have partly cloudy skies. they move in from the southwest here but we should stay dry no rain is in the forecast. same thing for the day t`morrow at least for first half of the day later on spotty showers up to the north here. out to the west we have some very hot temperatures. we're seeing read technician in the 90s from northern plains down towards the deem south. we'll have 80 degree readings across the northeast out to the west. the west coast is actually seeing much cooler readings. 60s in seattle 70s out to san francisco. mt meantime partly cloudy tonight. tomorrow a mix of sun and clouds. in the amp there's a threat of a couple of showers. that main threat will be north of i-80 across northwestern new jersey up to hudson valley but spotty showers maybe an isolated thunderstorm at best. everyone else should stay dry and nice and clear at the beaches. and then on monday clouds and isolated showers o

that change in wind direction from the southwest is what's going to bump up our heat and humidity across the area. right now the winds are relatively light, but southwest wind flow kind of makes things more humid across the region, and that's the case over the next few days. plenty of sunshine found across the area, just a couple of high clouds north and west of the city right now, and there is a front well off towards our west, but that's where it's going to remain out ahead of that front, that southwest wind flow will bump up the heat and humidity. we'll get clouds from time to time from the southwest. the heat is building, though, across the eastern half of the nation. a lot of readings in the 80s and into the 90s as far south as new orleans and san antonio. comfortable numbers towards the west coast, 70s in san francisco and high 80s for l.a. tomorrow. a look at our future cast shows partly cloudy skies tonight, that's how we'll start off our monday, and we'll see a mix of sun and clouds, but in the afternoon with the humidity building, i'm going to throw in the chance for a couple o

lot of blue in there and hardly any kind of cloud cover. 86 degrees, the winds southwest at 8 and it's three degrees warmer than this time yesterday. we got up to 88 officially today and tomorrow near 90, then gradually up into the mid 90s. it will be a heat wave. then it just might continue. that's part of the problem here. this could be another one of those long-lasting ones and we certainly hope like the last one, it's not an extreme and dangerous type of heat wave where you're talking about temperatures getting close to triple digits. right now we're not seeing that. 86 degrees in philadelphia now with a bit of southwest wind but we have got a sea breeze coming in at the shore and that is always a nice thing when the ocean temperature's 75 degrees. sea breeze when it's 55 degrees is kind of cold. this is just delightful. up near 80 degrees right at the beaches late in the day. that's why a lot of people stay there late in the day. there's an air quality alert away from the beaches during the day tomorrow, and the ozone level unhealthy for sensitive people in the orange range and ma
