A cold front, a stationary boundary to the south and along the front every now and then you see a blip of precipitation beginning to pop and this is all moving east and a chance well get south of philadelphia in particular.

Todays high is 91 off the record of 100, 74 is the overnight low, a little bit above average overnight tonight, this does look like an extension of the heat wave we need to add one more degree to get to the necessary 90. Expecting a high of 91 could hit 92. This 91 nothing close to the beginning of the heat wave, monday really took the cake with that high humidity, giving us heat index values of 109, yesterday was much more comfortable and i expect today to be more comfortable as well with the 91.
