Were starting to see cells moving through this evening. They are carrying some heavy rain and wind gusts which will be the two biggest threats for tomorrow and tuesday. I want to start this is great news as we start with our warnings that we did have through lehigh northampton, even into bucks and montgomery coun county. They were seeing those warnings. They have expired. So that is great news. As those storms continue to weaken. So heres a line were looking at where we did have warnings attached to them. Theyve started to weaken but were still under a thunderstorm watch until 11 00 oclock and you can see its from the city on west. So i think that thunderstorm watch will be allowed to expire, too. This mainline of storms has been weakening the winds have been coming down oy really think weve seen our peak wind gusts right around 57 Miles Per Hour with some of those cells. That were sitting out to the west. Heres look at some of the lightning and you can scene that is starting to get less frequent as this cell system moves off as this line rather moves off to the east. So all of that is good news as these storms weaken. I want to show you here on future cast how it will play out. Were still looking at passing showers and thunderstorms in the city. Just not of the severe nature. By 11 00, midnight a chance of seeing that. Really all around from the city on east. And then it all clears up and well be scattered until about five, 6 00 oclock in the mc. As far as going to work, it will be dry just very muggy and the balance of the day will stay dry. Its after lunch time thats when well see the storms start to come back in and then this scenario will all play out once again basically from sunset on through the early part of the evening. Severe weather is likely for tomorrow. The storm center has put us in a slight risk from philadelphia all wait down to Atlantic City. The main risk will be damaging winds and heavy rain. We could have winds in excess of 50 in some cases even getting close to 60 Miles Per Hour. So heres whats to expect. Tonight overnight, still a chance of scattered storms. That severe thunderstorm watch will expire at 11 00 oclock. Monday and tuesday, this is an unsettled weather period. So the set up will be the same. Afternoon and evening strong to severe thunderstorms. I would say any time after lunch until about 10, 11 00 oclock both of those days well be looking at the threat of storms and then wednesday 49 day it gets really nice. So once we put these storms behind us, its picture perfect infect through the rest of the week. 84 right now in the city. Highs today in the low 90s. It is muggy out there. Look at these dew points. Theyre in the upper 60s dough 70s this humidity is going to stay with us through tonight, tomorrow and right into tuesday. And thats going to keep helping these thunderstorms fuel. So for the overnight, were only falling to 74. Temperatures arent going to move much we have the clouds around that acts like a blanket. Temperatures dont go anywhere. Its warm and muggy with scattered storm. Tomorrow back up into the low 90s. We do have those storms coming in to play. After lunch time. I would say best bet 22 00 oclock out to the west and slowly start to move into the city. Seven day forecast shows the same scenario repeating itself on tuesday afternoon and evening thunderstorms, some could be severe. And then on wednesday, look at that. Down to 81 degrees. Temperatures actually unseasonably cool for the rest of the week but that will certainly feel good with low humidity. Just got to get through the next two days. Yeah. Thanks. That will do it for us the seven news at 10. Thank you for joining us. Dont go anywhere. Keep it right here. Weve got sports sunday and wait until you see whos guest hosting to night.
