Beautiful weather sets in
A cold front is passing through the area on Wednesday night and will usher in drier and cooler air. A few showers and storms on the Wednesday night schedule will leave the area early Thursday. Clearing will take place during the morning and leave us with a lot of sunshine. Temperatures on Thursday will be in the lower 80s and humidity will be significantly less. You'll definitely feel the difference.
Friday is looking like just an absolutely gorgeous day with plenty of sunshine and temperatures near 80°. It will be comfortable for sleeping Thursday and Friday nights so keep those windows open and leave the air conditioners off.
Saturday brings sunshine and clouds with highs in the lower 80s. Humidity, showers and warm weather return for Sunday.
What you can do, currently.
A Media Matters analysis found that last year — the hottest calendar year on record — network coverage of climate actually declined in the US. What’s worse, just 12% of reports about climate change mentioned fossil fuels as the driving cause. The media still reported on extreme weather, but stopped short of making the climate connection.
Independent climate journalism like Currently is needed more than ever. And this year, with all of these weather warnings already underway, we’ll unfortunately have plenty of opportunities to do better.
