Skies are mostly clear early on this Thursday morning and once again it is quite warm with readings ranging from the mid 70s in the Clifton area to the mid 60s further inland, winds are light and the humidity is high.

Very hot weather again today and on Friday with highs in the 90s along with rather high humidity, a heat advisory is in effect.  A thunderstorm complex may move through late tonight giving us a chance of strong winds and heavy rain but that possibility is low.

Not quite as hot over the weekend but it will continued to be humid and with a front in the area, there is the likelihood of shower and thunderstorms activity from Saturday afternoon through Monday.

A cold front crossing the area Monday night will be followed by cooler and drier air for Tuesday that should last through Thursday.
