It always amazes me when weather events that every Ava, Steve, and Abigail have talked about for days on end take some people by surprise.
"I didn't hear anything about severe thunderstorms/a blizzard/a long intense heat wave!" they holler. They can tell you what happened on "Let's All Eat!" or whatever else they see on the Food Channel, but the weather, nah.
So, just so's you know...there will be a big heat wave for this upcoming Fourth of July weekend in the mid-Atlantic area. Temperatures will be dangerously high, and don't even ask about the humidity!
It's a heat dome - the fancy name for a hot air mass - that's been headed eastward for a week or so. It's traveling eastbound on I-70 and I-81, stopped at Waffle House and Buc-ees, and will be here unpacking its sweaty luggage starting today!
The heat index, driven mad by humidity, might scorch out at 115.
