As we advance it through tuesday by 4 00 oclock in the afterno afternoon, scattered showers start to move in along and ahead of a front and that will be the same front that just kind of sits over us for wednesday and thursday that keeps building the heat and then sparking the thunderstorms. Heres whats to expect. Monday its mainly dry. Again with that exception out to our far northwest late day we could see few showers. It is more humid tomorrow. Certainly youre going to notice that. Then tuesday to thursday possible heat wave temperatures will be 90 degrees or better for those three days. Scattered storms on tap. Very humid. Heat indices by the way could be from 100 to 103. Fourth of july, still uncertain. Lingering shower possible. But if it does happen it will happen early in the morning fourth of July Fireworks forecast looking good. Down at the shore cast we are looking at highs in the 70s. Its a nice day along the beach. 88 degrees here in the city for tomorrow. Theres a look at the seven day forecast. Tuesday, wednesday, thursday it is hot, humid scattered showers and thunderstorms. Friday looks okay for now. Not a washout. Maybe just a lingering shower in the morning.
