Spotty storms today, Friday, Drier for the weekend

THIS AFTERNOON: Warm & muggy conditions will hold over the area. A few spotty storms can't be ruled out as we get into the evening hours.

TONIGHT: A stray storm or two is possible overnight-- most will stay dry. Temperatures remain mild in the low 70s.

EXTENDED: Just about a carbon copy into Friday. A few stray storms will be possible but otherwise hot and humid with highs near 90. That’s about where afternoon highs will stay going forward, but this weekend looks like those storm chances will be even slimmer. A weak frontal boundary will slide west and take some of the humidity and better storm chances with it. While it might not feel as oppressive as it has the last few days, still remember that water with your Independence Day festivities.
