And heavy rain from that same system last night swamped parts of downtown omaha, nebraska. The storm packed high winds, which toppled trees and power lines here, too. The storm also knocked out power to some 19,000 homes. And in the meantime, our great weather continues. 80 degrees in philadelphia. Nothing but some high, thin clouds, sunshine reported all across the area. 77 degrees in the lehigh valley. Lets see whats going on at the shore right now. The ocean temperature, 74 degrees. A little bit of a land breeze, at least temporarily, allowing ventnor to get up to 84, summer point, 81. Cape may point, 78 degrees. So its another Beautiful Day at the shore. Temperatures are going to be going up. 83 yesterday, at least 85 today. Maybe a couple of Degrees Higher than that, and maybe close to 90 tomorrow. And then friday, looks like the mid90s plus high humidity making it feel like its 100 or even a little hotter. Nothing on the radar close by. The nearest showers have just moved past chicago. And the remnants of some of that could hit parts of the area tomorrow. So, nothing later today or tonight or tomorrow morning, as we go through the day tomorrow, there we are. Just some isolated, mainly light showers. Thats not very impressive, is it . And thats about our only rain risk for the next week or so. Tomorrow, were going to start noticing the humidity a little bit more. So packard park, 89, feeling like 90. Newtown square, 86. Feeling like 88. Same thing with why wine misting.

This is not the center of it. The center of it would be up in this area. And the computer models are showing this storm, whether it develops or not, having an impact. Gaston, in the meantime, looks like its going to be tracking way up to the northwest, in the middle of the atlantic ocean. So at least for the next week, were not concerned about that. But hermine, thats a different story. These different computer models tending to agree on a track through the bahamas, where the ocean is very warm and if other conditions are favorable, storms can develop and intensify very quickly. And then, a threat to florida, practically all of the computer models have it, at least very, very close to the state of florida. And then going into the gulf of mexico, you dont see any solutions taking it up the east coast. So we kind of remove that possibility and florida and the gulf of mexico, the main targets, coming up. As we go through the next few days, temperatures are going up. Humidity will be going up with it. So the temperature jump, from 85 to 92, well, its going to feel even more dramatic than that.

The jersey shore may be getting up near 90 on friday, too, with a bit of a land breeze. Thats going to be the critical thing there. And as we go through the rest of the ten days, theres the 94 friday, not quite as hot or humid over the weekend. But still pretty warm, and close to 90 degrees on monday, as well. Thanks, glenn.

The heat and humidity are going to be coming back. The temperature going up significantly, and the humidity going up significantly, and thats going to make for an even bigger jump in the way its going to feel. So lets say were at 85 this afternoon, feeling like about 85. By friday, 94, feeling like 100 plus. Its going to feel 15 degrees warmer on friday than it does today. And this is the way its going to feel tomorrow. High temperature, highest feelslike temperature, chestnut hill, 87. Feeling like 89. Upper makefield, same numbers. 87 and 89. Easton, 88 and 89. Of course, the humidity not quite as high in the lehigh valley. Other places much higher towards the jersey shore. Longport, 79. Feels like 86. And were going to be going up from there. The remnants of fiona, still hanging around in the atlantic. Gaston strengthening in the eastern atlantic, maybe becoming a hurricane. And this, hermine, not a storm yet. Not even named yet. Hurricane hunter plane in there right now, trying to find a circulation. Now, it has found strong winds. Tropical storm force winds. But this is not the center. The center is up in here. So thats why its not a Tropical Storm yet. If the center of the circulation was right there, it would be a Tropical Storm, immediately. Heres the what you call the visible satellite picture, and thats where a little bit of the circulation would be. So it may not be named immediately, but it is expected to be named and intensify. Gaston, in the meantime, looks like its headed to the northwest, down into the middle of the atlantic, hermine, if it does develop, these various computer models taking it through the bahamas and a definite threat into florida. Floridas not been hit by a hurricane since 2004, 2005. Thats the longest stretch of not being hit in recorded history of florida. And then, looks like it would be coming somewhere into the gulf of mexico. We dont have any computer models now taking it up the east coast of the united states. So that is pretty much off the board. A big area of High Pressure thats going to block it from doing that. Here we are with the temperatures going up in philadelphia area. Look, 94 on friday. But at the jersey shore, were generally in the upper 70s for most of the afternoons and the next couple of days with the sea breezes coming in. And youll see the effect of the sea breezes saturday and sunday, too. So it looks like its going to be a really nice weekend at the jersey shore. It also looks dry, all the way through, the only exception could be in the lehigh valley, a chance of a brief shower tomorrow afternoon. We have it dry through monday and tuesday and then chances of rain really start increasing in the middle of next week, and of course, it depends on what happens with that tropical moisture, if any of it starts to come up this way. But it wouldnt come up with this way before the middle of next week, at least. We are following breaking news out of afghanistan. Nbc news is reporting that police are responding to an attack on American University in kabul, afghanistan. There have been reports of large explosions and gunfire, and students at the school are tweeting that they are trapped. Some are saying they have been injured and are on the way to the hospital. Others say the force of one of the explosions knocked them to the ground. Were working to gather more details. Stay with nbc 10 and the nbc 10 app. Thats where well post updates on this breaking news. Coming up this afternoon at 3 00, its ellen with Anne Hathaway and steven tyler. And now an update on our top story were following all day. The death toll now stands at 73 after a magnitude 6. 2 earthquake struck italy. The strong quake caused homes to collapse on top of residents as they slept. Rescuers are bringing sniffer dogs, earth movers, and other heavy equipment into the quake zone to help in the effort to find victims and survivors. Well keep you updated on that story, as well, on the app. Now lets get you updated on our forecast. Still a pretty nice day here. The humidity is tolerable, especially compared to what weve been going through during the month of august. Up into the mid80s or a little bit higher today. The temperature significantly higher tomorrow and the humidity will be definitely higher. so it will at least feel like the low 90s. By friday, that 94 should be feeling like about 100, maybe even a little higher. Over the weekend, not quite as humid, but still fairly hot and fairly humid. More like early august weather, rather than late august. And the heat continues into early next week. One of the things you do not see are the raindrops. Not until the middle of next week. So the dry pattern looks like its going to continue. In the meantime, we concentrate on the tropics, of the system thats just been near puerto rico, because a lot of computer models are projecting it to go toward florida and it looks like this is the time of the year that it can be pretty strong.
