BALTIMORE — Happy Wednesday! A Heat Advisory goes into effect from 11 AM - 8 PM as afternoon temperatures climb near 100° with heat index values around 106°. There won't be much relief overnight, as temperatures only drop into the 70s. A spotty afternoon thunderstorm could pop up, but most areas remain dry. The peak of the heatwave occurs Thursday and Friday, when an Extreme Heat Watch is in effect. Heat index values could top 112°, making this our most dangerous stretch of heat so far this summer.
