AccuWeather Alert: One more oppressive day on July 4th
About this episode
The episode discusses the oppressive heat wave and potential thunderstorms affecting the Fourth of July celebrations.
We head into the Fourth of July weekend under an official heat wave, with Friday marking the third consecutive day of temperatures above 90 degrees. The day begins with sunshine, providing favorable conditions for the arrival of the tall ships during the morning hours. However, scattered heavy thunderstorms could develop during the afternoon and evening. As temperatures ease back through the 80s later in the day, humidity will remain high, creating steam-bath-like conditions. Anyone planning to attend fireworks displays is urged to have a safety plan in place should thunderstorms move into the area. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
