i don't want to put you on the spot but what the heck. >> 91. >> 92. >> and the winner is steve. 92 was the high temperature for national today. it didn't feel like that, though, with the humidity. there was actually times today when it felt lower than the actual air temperature. that's what happens, you know. you are going to have the reverse of the heat index and it can feel a little bit better out there. that is not going to happen for the weekend, though. this evening is going to be nice. 86 degrees at 7:00. loads of sunshine. 82 at night. it's going to be very, very nice out there. winds only 5 to 10 miles per hour. highs today 92 for national. 89 for dulles. even cooler there. bwi marshall a little bit warmer up to 93 degrees. this weekend, though, temperatures come up. we're probably going to be pushing middle 90s both days. the heat index will be a little bit higher on sunday. looks like sunday will be the mug guest of at least the -- muggiest of at least the weekend days and that will extend into monday as well. 91 in the city. 84 for gaithersburg. some of you in the 80s. real nice by the bay where temperatures have only been in the lower 80s for high temperatures. of course the cooler water helping to keep them warm. binghamton 76. there's cooler air up here but unfortunately that's not going to come on down, okay. we'll have more warm and muggy air down to the south and to the west. that will come through for the weekend. so therefore we've had one little day where it's been fairly dry and comfortable and back comes the humidity for the weekend. 94 for tomorrow. 96 on sunday. i raised these one degree for each day. with the heat index it will be a hundred plus on sunday. probably 96, 97 for a high temperature with the heat index out there tomorrow. there's an isolated chance of a thunderstorm tomorrow. more scattered i guess would be the best word for it on sunday. slightly better chance of more coverage with the thunderstorms coming up on sunday. rain and thunderstorm activity down through the deep south. we are good here. high pressure came in behind that little weak cold front yesterday. so the high pressure has pulled some of the drier, slightly cooler air from the north down into us. it's hot probably but we were real hot yesterday so i think today would be a good day to say just warm. humidity lower and more comfortable but that was just a one day wonder because the heat comes back for the weekend. sunny tomorrow. high temperatures in the 90s. again just a pop-up thunderstorm, okay. one or two. most of us, 99.9% of us stay dry tomorrow afternoon and tomorrow evening but as we get into sunday, there's a little bit more coverage. better chance of that a little farther back out to the west. but i think some of that will spread over the region on sunday evening. again maybe 20% to 30% chance for thunderstorms sunday evening. monday there's a nice line that forms back out to the northwest of us that will come through monday night. and that will actually bring a nice change but we have to wait until tuesday and wednesday to get that. for tomorrow loads of sunshine. hot. a little bit on the muggy side, too. we start off in the 70s and we warm up into the middle 90s tomorrow. with the heat index tomorrow, it will probably feel 96, 97, something like that. definitely on sunday it will feel 100 to 103 with the heat index. and well very some thunderstorms late in the day. monday just about as hot, 95. but next week, tuesday, wednesday, and even into thursday, a nice little break. >> i like the sound of that. >> we'll wait on it. >> thanks, gary. here's what we're working on right now for the news edge at 6:00 tonight. thousands of people are wondering how they are going to get by now that their unemployment benefits are ending. we have an intimate look at a local man's struggle. he's just one of millions dealing with the same situation. how helping the environment could be hurting your health. >> reporter: i'mi'm owthe king had people dancing in the streets. how many ways can you be comfortable?
