A dangerous heat wave will continue into the weekend across much of the Northeastern United States, but the clock is ticking on the sweltering temperatures and humidity. A strong push of cool air will ignite downpours, gusty thunderstorms, and even severe weather across the region this weekend, AccuWeather meteorologists say.
“The aggressive warmth and humidity in the Northeast in recent days will be erased in many areas by the second half of the weekend, bringing some much-needed relief to the region,” AccuWeather Senior Meteorologist Courtney Travis said.
