Plenty of heat and humidity continues as we head into the weekend, and this will lead to more afternoon thunderstorms (though perhaps not quite as many, especially Sunday). A ridge of high pressure aloft will nudge into the area from the west — enough to keep the heat on, but not quite enough to totally squelch the afternoon thunderstorm threat either. Temperatures will run in the mid-to-upper 70s each morning, warming to the low-to-mid-90s each afternoon. Showers and thunderstorms will initiate on the seabreeze as it pushes inland, though the prevailing flow around the ridge could send some storms back coastward — something to think about if the beach is in your plans. The ridge nudges in a bit more for Sunday, and that should help to keep the risk for thunderstorms a little lower than on Saturday, but either way, just be prepared to bring your outdoor activities indoors if thunderstorms approach.
