It's another day in a tropical air mass which covers much of the eastern half of the US. Today will be another very warm and very humid day. Upper air disturbances are moving along in the flow that set off thunderstorms. Today's thunderstorms will likely be concentrated in areas from Northern Pennsylvania and Northern New Jersey north and northeast into New England. We will watch the radars and see how storm take shape later today. In the meantime we have some scattered activity into this afternoon and some sunshine in the mix as well. Most highs today will be in the mid to upper 80s. Temperatures will be slightly cooler at the shore.

A dangerous drug that is being mixed into fentanyl is causing those who inject it to develop a rash of sores that resembles a case of flesh-eating bacteria. People experiencing homelessness around Denver can sometimes be seen with these bloody, weeping wounds. I recently mentioned this phenomenon to a fentanyl user who told me about the xylazine connection.

Sandy Paws Rescue Inc., a foster-based rescue in Massachusetts, has recently introduced a tiny 8lb dog named Bingo who is looking for her forever home. Bingo is a 3-year-old Shih Tzu mix with an adorable appearance and a sweet disposition. However, she needs a patient and understanding owner who recognizes that "dogs are not toys, and not all dogs love to be picked up right away," explains Sandy Paws Rescue Inc. This little lady requires some decompression time upon arriving at her new home to settle in comfortably.

We have an energetic set up in the atmosphere today to produce strong storms with the potential to turn severe. Many areas in our region have a Heat Index over 100ºF, proving the function of high heat AND humidity. That is the fuel for strong thunderstorms and possibly supercells. Add in a strong cold front connected to the remnant Low or Ghost of former Hurricane Beryl and we have a trigger to ignite the explosive development mid afternoon into this evening.
