WEATHER: Temperatures soar as severe weather threatens major Northeast cities
It was another hot day across much of the U.S. on Friday, including the parts of the Northeast, where the region's first official heat wave of 2019 was recorded.
The heat still has a grip on a large part of the nation from the southwest to the central U.S. and into the Northeast. The heat index will exceed 100 degrees from Kansas to Minnesota, where heat advisories have been issued with heat and humidity approaching dangerous levels. New excessive heat alerts are being issued for Minneapolis, as the heat index could approach 105 degrees on Sunday.
After temperatures reach the 90s early Saturday afternoon, storms will begin midafternoon and last into the early evening hours. It is likely that severe thunderstorms, capable of damaging winds, hail and lightning, will cover the I-95 cities later Saturday. Due to the higher levels of humidity, storms have the potential to quickly drop a lot of rain, and create localized flash flooding.
