CWG Live updates: Extreme heat into midweek; feels as hot as 115 with intense humidity

Welcome to updated around-the-clock by Capital Weather Gang meteorologists. Happening now: Limit time outdoors — near-record highs today. An extreme heat warning is in effect from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. with heat index values up to 110. What's next? An extreme heat watch for Tuesday. One might be issued Wednesday. Dangerous heat is expected to hang on through midweek, feeling like 110-115 due to oppressive humidity. Today's daily digit — 1/10: A dangerous heat and humidity combo making it feel as hot as 110 degrees today deserves one of our lowest grades on the scale. | 🤚 Your call? The digit is a somewhat subjective rating of the day's weather, on a 0-to-10 scale. Forecast in detail Today (Monday): Triple digit heat for the first time this year? Highs aim for upper 90s to low 100s. Skies are a bit hazy, but it's overall sunny. Any stray shower or storm would be very brief. Adding in dew points around 70 to 75, it may feel like 105 to 115 degrees to our skin as sweat evaporation can no longer cool us. Minimize outdoor time, avoid strenuous activity, hydrate and use sunblock. Confidence: High Tonight: Continued toasty with evening 90s only 'cooling' into the upper 70s to low 80s by dawn. With high humidity (dew points 70-plus) it may feel near 90 or above much of the night. Confidence: High Tomorrow (Tuesday): A heat dome sits overhead, making it feel as hot as 115. Temperatures shoot for 100, plus or minus a few degrees. Oppressive humidity comes from dew points near the mid-70s at times. Only a few clouds and some haze, but otherwise sunshine reigns. Confidence: High Tomorrow night: Mainly clear and very warm. Lows only dip into the upper 70s and low 80s. Confidence: Medium-High A look ahead Hopefully the last day of oppressive, potentially dangerous heat Wednesday with highs around 100 and humidity making it feel between 105 and 115 degrees. Afternoon clouds may bubble up with thunderstorms slightly possible from midafternoon into the evening hours. Overnight lows again may only fall near 80. Confidence: Medium-High Less heat and sun come with some afternoon and evening thunderstorms Thursday and Friday. Highs Thursday around 95, and Friday it's nearer 90. Stay tuned as we get closer, since being at the edge of an eroding dome of high pressure can add a few forecast detail question marks, including the chance for organized clusters of severe storms. Confidence: Medium Average heat and humidity return for the weekend, but a storm is possible during afternoon and evening hours. Highs both days should get to within a few degrees of 90. Overnight lows attempt to get a bit more seasonable, back to a range of 70 to mid-70s.

What is an Extreme Heat Warning and when is it issued in Pennsylvania?

(WHTM) — Much of the Midstate is under an Extreme Heat Warning, a first for the region. Sort of. The National Weather Service at State College issued two separate Extreme Heat Warnings covering most of our area — one for Mifflin and Juniata counties, and another for Franklin, Perry, Dauphin, Lebanon, Cumberland, Adams, York, and Lancaster counties. What is a heat dome? Here's what forecasters are talking about The former is in effect from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. Monday, and the latter is until 8 p.m. Wednesday with heat index values up to 108°F predicted It's not the first time we've reached such temperatures, but it is a new term for the warning. Why? It's part of what the NWS calls 'hazard simplification' which saw two alerts renamed nationwide in March. WEATHER FORECAST > A hazy, hot, and humid week ahead Effectively, if these conditions existed this time last year, we would be under an 'Excessive Heat Warning.' The change of wording from 'Excessive' to 'Extreme,' the National Weather Service says, is part of an effort to 'better convey that heat is dangerous' and improve communication and messaging. For an Extreme Heat Warning to be issued in all of Pennsylvania outside of metro Philadelphia, heat indexes must exceed 105°F. Metro Philadelphia uses 'Kalkstein Procedures.' A Heat Advisory, which Mifflin and Juniata counties will be under until 8 p.m. Wednesday outside of when the Extreme Heat Warning is active, requires heat indices between 100°F and 105°F.
