Rinse, repeat: Heat, humidity and possible storms through 4th of July weekend

Each day features more of the same - heat, humidity and scattered storms

ROANOKE, Va. – June went by in a flash it seems and we’re wrapping up the month with hotter and noticeably more humid air.

Highs Thursday reach the upper 80s and lower 90s outside of the mountains.

We’ll be a touch hotter Friday, though we’ll throw some storms into the mix. That chance, while scattered, will be slightly higher in areas along and west of the Parkway during the afternoon and evening hours.

Any storms that do form won’t move very quickly, so localized flooding is a possibility. That said, don’t count on getting wet every single day (hence the term scattered).
