Blazing heat with feels-like temperatures approaching 110° weren’t quite enough for mother nature, so she decided to throw in the chance for severe thunderstorms on Tuesday as well. A cold front will push through both Tuesday and Wednesday, with opportunities for intense thunderstorms each days. Already today (Monday), there have been damaging storms in Northeast PA, and this is only the start as the front gradually works south.

Aurora’s pallet shelters for people experiencing homelessness, which only allow a maximum 30-day stay, have been cycling the same individuals in and out, city staff told council members Thursday. Many return to street encampments when their time in the pallet shelter runs out, Jessica Prosser, homeless services director for the city, said.
