Eastern US Sweats Through Another Hot Day Before Rain, Cold Move In
Forecasters say gusty winds are the main threat as thunderstorms and overnight rain follow one more hot day before highs drop into the 60s Friday.
- A cold front is expected to reach the East Coast by Wednesday, bringing clusters of thunderstorms with strong wind gusts and hail along the I-95 corridor from Boston to Richmond, Virginia, according to FOX Weather.
- Heat ahead of the front is fueling the storm threat, following record highs on Tuesday in Boston at 96 degrees and Portland, Maine, at 92 degrees across the Northeast.
- The Philadelphia school district shifted to remote learning for students at 57 schools, while officials in Boston's Dorchester neighborhood set up fans and allowed students to wear shorts and T-shirts.
- Temperatures behind the system will fall back into the 60s across the I-95 corridor, though drivers should remain cautious as heavy rain could reduce visibility and make travel difficult.
- Cooler air will settle in behind the front, remaining through the upcoming Memorial Day weekend as residents in the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast monitor local forecasts and alerts.
