August is picking up where July left off with another Heat Advisory in effect from 11 a.m. through 6 p.m. Saturday. It’ll feel like it’s between 105 and 110 degrees before cooling thunderstorms arrive later this afternoon, so stay hydrated and spend as much time in the air conditioning as possible.

Some of those storms, mainly between 3 p.m. and 8 p.m., could cause localized street flooding in poor-drainage neighborhoods. Similar conditions are on tap for Sunday, so plan your outdoor activities early and be prepared to spend your afternoon indoors.

In the tropics, all is quiet right now, although some models spin something up off the southeastern U.S. coast by later next week.
