Hot with scattered rain and T-Storms; Climate Cast live Friday at State Fair
Heat Wave Day #6
Another 90+ day today makes six in a row, the longest stretch of 90s this summer. That makes 15 days of 90 degree heat this summer above the average of 13 days.
A weak frontal boundary is kicking off scattered showers and thunderstorms through tonight. There is a slight risk a few of the storms will pack high winds and hail.

Two more hot days
Temps will push 90 again Friday and Saturday before a cool front arrives with our next best chance of rain Saturday night. We'll enjoy temps back into the 70s...and comfy dew points in the 40s and 50s by Labor Day.
