First Alert Weather: Tracking thunderstorms this weekend 02:28
NEW YORK -- Hot and humid conditions are expected to trigger thunderstorms heading into the weekend around the New York City area.
An airmass that originated in the deep tropics is bringing sauna-like air, leading to dangerous heat indices ranging from 95 to 103 degrees through Saturday.
The storm threat is scattered Friday, before it becomes more widespread Saturday. With such high humidity in place, any storms that develop will be capable of producing very heavy rainfall and isolated flash flooding.
Once those storms move through late Saturday night, Sunday looks to be drier and slightly less humid.

Tracking Hurricane Beryl
CBS New York
Hurricane Beryl made a second landfall near Tulum, Mexico early Friday morning as a Category 2 storm. As it interacts with the landmass of the Yucatan Peninsula, significant weakening is expected later in the day.

The storm is then anticipated to reemerge over the Gulf Of Mexico over the weekend. As it does so, restrengthening is likely as it traverses the very warm water. A third landfall is then forecasted along the Texas coastline early on Monday as a Category 1 storm.
