Radar says this will happen today too. The cell over Schuylkill County looks to miss to the west.

Enjoying having the windows down with a cool breeze today. It feels amazing. Hopefully we can get some more rain later too…preferably before 8 so the World Cup watch party in Bethlehem can stay outdoors.

Interesting that they issued a heat advisory for today. I don’t think I’ve ever seen that here with a high in the 80s.

Power outage map looks pretty crazy. It looks like literally everyone in East Greenville, Pennsburg, and Red Hill - and the surrounding 5-10 miles - are without power.

Slight risk for tomorrow was expanded north and a 30% wind area was added south of route 202.

Looks like a much more comfortable pattern setting up for next week and beyond. I could see us hitting 90 again next Thursday (with maybe a decent severe wx chance) but every other day for the next week or two should stay near or below normal. Most guidance is adamant that the ridge will shift towards the plains/Rockies after this week and not really budge for awhile.

The apartment I live in doesn’t have AC and doesn’t need it because it’s partially below ground. That being said, today is the warmest it’s ever been in here in 5 years of living here. I don’t have an indoor thermometer but it has to be close to 80. Thankfully I can handle warm indoor environments better than most people so I don’t mind it.

First 100 since July 2011. Could see a second one in a row tomorrow.

Latest HRRR has ABE hitting 104. Would put us 1 degree shy of the all time record. Either way this is likely to be our first 100 degree day since July 2011. I remember that heat wave well…it just went on and on and on. At least this current one will be short lived.

Just spent 3 hours outdoors at a World Cup watch party. Despite sitting all that time I’m completely drenched in sweat. This humidity is no joke.

Tomorrow and Friday don’t look as humid. So even though the temps may be a few degrees warmer it won’t feel as oppressive.

95/75 at KABE. Heat index of 107. Actually feels kinda okayish in the shade but the sun is unbearable.

The mesos have backed off on the storm chance today. There will still be some storms around but they’ll be more isolated.

Keep an eye on Wednesday. Some of the 0z mesos are suggesting there could be some strong storms that day. These ring of fire pattern storms can be hard to nail down until the day of.

Storm west of Doylestown is starting to rotate too. That’s probably going to become warned very shortly.
