northeast and mid atlantic. laguardia hit 98. d.c. was 98. as i mentioned, it's going to be warmer today. we're at 80 degrees to start your morning in boston. yesterday at this time, we were in the low 70s. so we've already got a head start. new york city is one of the warmest spots in the entire country right now. already at 81 with full sunshine. the hot atmosphere overhead, it looks like we have a very good shot of hitting 100 today, in many areas, including philadelphia. the relief is now going across the middle of the country. that's why minneapolis, chicago, all the way through kansas city will be better today. those thunderstorms, we would love them here in the east. we'll get them on friday. today could be the hottest day of the summer for many east coast areas. >> it's only, what, the second official day? so not a good start. all right, bill, thanks. well, big ben gives, but not enough for wall street. bad news for mcdonald's.
