Its going to be dangerously hot out there friday, saturday and suayday. Ok so weve got to brace oursels, the hottest day so far this yearly absolute, and i just called the National Weather service because we were talking about a heat advisory a p imutting together the heat index and im starting to think th we may get a little bit above, something more serious like a warning, and that would be an excessive heat warning that w could potentially see friday ort surday, but i want to give you th storm team 4 radar out there cght now. Theres a smance that were dealing with a shower out there tonight. You can see this activity. This is back around northern loudoun county, the western Frederick County and maryland and just dealing with rain showers. Again, a look at the bigger picturoi not much g on out there tonight. Most of us its a dry night. We dont need to be dealing with any rain right now, especially when we have o all this heat in the forecast. Heres your planner for tomorrow. Its a warm, muggy start already. At 7 00 a. M. Were almost at 80 degrees. By lunchtime were at 91. That 96 is going to feel like 96 toonrrow. Right he threshold and i dont want to split hairs because i want to get the message across with the kids outdoors get them outarly in the morning and keep them indoors more so during the afternoon hours when it was extremely hot out there. If they ee outsid make sure they are drinking plenty of water and hanging how the in the shade. Theres a storm tomorrow at 7 00 p. M. And the days dry. 990 degrees tomorrow at 7 00 p. M. Also when it gets this hot ids a idea to remember just how hot the asphalt is because its black so just absorb that sunlight where its lighter colors like concrete and send a lot of that.

Heading to the pool will be great as long as ysreg sunscreen and drinking plenty of water there, especially tomorrow and friday.
