...HEAT ADVISORY IN EFFECT FROM 11 AM THIS MORNING TO 8 PM EDT
THIS EVENING...

.DISCUSSION...Today will feature well above normal temperatures
and very muggy conditions, leading to dangerously high heat index
values near 110 degrees this afternoon.

Northerly flow aloft today will pin the seabreeze fairly close to
the coast. With the burn site being close to the coast, this means
that afternoon thunderstorms could very well form directly on top
of the burn, so keep an eye to the sky for building clouds.

On Wednesday, the heat index could be even hotter, possibly
exceeding 115 degrees. After the worst of Wednesday afternoon
heat, the chance of thunderstorms revs up. Thunderstorms on
Wednesday will be particularly prone to strong, possibly damaging
gusty winds. There is a Marginal Risk of severe thunderstorms on
Wednesday.
