More scattered storms and heat index near 100° for Sunday

and last updated

The scattered strong storms many areas saw Saturday afternoon into early evening have diminished, but there could still be a few overnight showers or storms, although any that develop would likely be isolated. At least the temperatures and haze got knocked down a bit, although it will stay warm and muggy overnight.

Sunday will stay on the humid side with highs a few degrees lower than Saturday, but many areas will still be near or above 90°. The heat index will be 95° to 100°.

There will be the chance for more scattered storms with strong gusts as a cold front pushes from north to south into southern Virginia. There is a marginal to slight risk (level 1 to 2) from the Storm Prediction Center for severe storms over southern Virginia.

That cold front will hover just south of the region on Monday, keeping the chance for some showers and storms around, with the best chance for rain in southern Virginia.

Storm chances increase again on Tuesday with highs in the 80s.

A cold front will move through the first half of Wednesday, with more showers and storms possible.

Behind the cold front, Thursday and Friday will be cooler and much less humid. Highs will be in the low to mid 80s.

Tropics-wise, there are a few hints of tropical development over the Gulf next week, with some cloudiness that may become organized. This will be monitored by the Hurricane Center, but it appears chances remain pretty low.
