Chance of a Thunderstorm on Saturday



Tonight, there is still about a 30% chance of a thunderstorm in Northwestern New Jersey. Otherwise, the latest radar trends show that thunderstorms will mainly just miss this area unlike last night. Central Pennsylvania and Maryland is yet again getting quite a pounding...but these storms are not moving on as big of a northwest angle.

Thunderstorms are again possible on Saturday. The model guidance is suggesting that this will be the greatest threat over the past several days for thunderstorms and the chances are not all that high. There is a 40% chance of a thunderstorm tomorrow and this would include just about every location. Some isolated strong to severe thunderstorms will be possible if sufficient sunshine occurs.

Otherwise: heatwave begins on Sunday for some and lingers into next Wednesday. While there will be a 10 to 20% chance of a thunderstorm on Sunday through Tuesday with the heat and humidity...the best chance for a severe weather outbreak and widespread thunderstorms will be on Wednesday when a powerful cold front will bring an end to the heat and cool us off by about 10 to 15 degrees for Thursday.
