.DISCUSSION...
Our stretch of hot and humid weather continues today with
scattered areas of showers and thunderstorms this afternoon.
Some storms may become strong producing damaging winds gusts,
heavy downpours, and frequent lightning. We remain very warm and
humid Friday through the weekend but not quite as hot as
previous days. Areas of showers and thunderstorms redevelop
