Air Quality Alert: In place until 11 p.m. tonight for southern Westchester County.
Today was our hottest day of the year, with highs in the 90s, feeling closer to 100. That extreme heat and humidity are fueling another widespread severe storm threat across the Hudson Valley to close out our Friday. The main hazards are damaging wind gusts and heavy downpours that could briefly reduce visibility, with an isolated chance for small hail.
The weekend brings a mixed bag. Saturday is shaping up beautifully - warm, sunny and much more comfortable. However, another system moves in late Sunday, bringing our next round of rain between 5 and 10 p.m.
