THURSDAY, JULY 11, 2024 TODAY: Partly to Mostly Sunny Less Humid Highs: 88-93 Winds: Northwest 5-10 mph A welcome change arrives today after a stretch of 6 days over 97 with brutal heat index values over 100. High temperatures will be more seasonable today with highs around 90 degrees. The best part is a northwest wind has ushered in a less humid airmass, so we won't have much of a heat index today. Definitely make time to get outdoors today, if you can, with another stretch of high heat and humidity building for the weekend and next week. TONIGHT: Becoming Mostly Cloudy Showers Developing Lows: 68-75 Winds: Northeast 5 mph Clouds increase tonight with a slight increase in humidity, as a frontal system slides in from the east. This system will provide the area with some much needed, beneficial rain chances. FRIDAY: Cloudy Scattered Showers, Storms Highs: 78-82 Winds: East 5-10 mph Plan for a rainy Friday with cooler highs in the low 80s, but higher humidity.

SATURDAY: Partly Sunny Shower Chances Highs: Low 90s Winds: Southwest 5-10 mph Heat begins to build once again across the Mid-Atlantic with highs back into the low 90s and heat index values in the mid 90s.
