BALTIMORE — The hottest day of the year so far is on the way tomorrow.
An Extreme Heat Warning goes into effect Thursday from 10 AM to 8 PM as temperatures soar to around 100°. When you factor in the humidity, it'll feel more like 105° to 110°, making it dangerous to spend extended time outdoors. The good news? Plenty of sunshine and dry weather. The bad news? The humidity will make it feel absolutely brutal.
The heat sticks around on Friday, with highs once again topping 100°. After that, the weather pattern begins to change. Scattered strong to severe thunderstorms are expected to develop Friday afternoon and evening, with another round possible on Saturday. Some of these storms could produce damaging wind gusts, large hail, and heavy downpours, so if you have Independence Day weekend plans, be sure to keep an eye on the forecast.
