Maryland Weather: Heat wave rolls into the weekend
BALTIMORE -- Our heat wave rolls on and even intensifies over the weekend!
Please keep all those heat related precautions in mind because we have a ways to go before we're going to see relief.
We are closing out the work week with another scorcher of a day and we're bracing for a WJZ Alert Day on Sunday.
Temperatures surged into the mid 90s this afternoon.
Even warmer temperatures await us over the weekend.
Highs on Saturday and Sunday will top out in the upper 90s.
The lower humidity means Saturday will feel near 100°.
Sunday is a WJZ Alert Day because of the potentially dangerous combination of heat and humidity.
The forecast high for Baltimore is 98° but thanks to plenty of moisture in the atmosphere, it's going to feel up to 108°.
A cold front moves through Monday afternoon and evening and that will trigger some storms.
A few may be strong to severe.
In the wake of the front, temperatures will dip into the upper 80 and low 90s.
