.DISCUSSION...
Clouds and a few showers finally give way to some afternoon
sun and warmer temperatures, especially south and west of
Albany, as a warm front lifts through the area. A few additional
scattered showers and thunderstorms can redevelop later today with
any storm capable of heavy downpours. Dangerous heat and
humidity returns for tomorrow ahead of a strong cold front which
could result in strong to severe late afternoon thunderstorms
with damaging winds the main hazard. Confidence remains moderate
to high for dangerous heat to return early to mid next week.
