Sweltering heat that's baked the Philadelphia region for the last several days will be tamped down by a system of late-day storms that could turn severe.
Sweltering heat that's baked the Philadelphia region for the last several days will be tamped down by a system of late-day storms that could turn severe. The National Weather Service issued a Severe Thunderstorm Watch for most of New Jersey and all the southeastern Pennsylvania counties on Tuesday.The weather advisory will expire around 8 p.m., according to the weather service, and the primary threats appear to be damaging wind gusts and isolated hail.
Temperatures that lingered in the 90s with humidity for most of the day are expected to fall into the 80s as the storms roll in and cloud cover thickens. That will set the stage for the days ahead as forecasters expect temperatures around the Philadelphia area to remain in the 80s on for the next several days. Humidity will return on Sunday when temperatures stretch back into the 90s, but another round of storms could bring back a similar weather pattern next week.___THURSDAY: Not as hot.
