Higher chance of showers and storms
Chances of showers and storms will be higher this afternoon and evening at a 60% chance compared to Tuesday's isolated storms.
Storms today will pack a punch at times, too. Main impacts will include heavy rain, pockets of gusty winds, and frequent lightning. The storms will be a more typical summer time set up as downpours are enhanced and partially driven by the east and west coast sea-breeze collision.
Timeline:
The highest chances of rain will take place between 3 p.m. and 9 p.m.
Temperatures will remain hot, as highs reach the mid 90s inland and closer to the low 90s at the coast.
Humidity levels won't be as intense today even with the continued heat. Our heat indices today will peak at range of around 101-104°.
Showers and storms will fade and wrap up by roughly midnight. Temperatures will stay quite warm overnight, dipping down into the upper 70s for Thursday morning lows.
