.DISCUSSION...
A mid-June heat wave is officially underway with the
anticipation of today`s preliminary round of dangerous, near-record
heat and elevated humidity to continue through at least Thursday,
especially at lower elevations. While much of the region will remain
dry during this period, each day will hold isolated to scattered
chances for showers and thunderstorms. A respite from ugly heat will
come in time for the weekend with a cold front set to pass through
the region Friday. Temperatures will then return to seasonably warm
levels.
