July 6 Weather Heat Advisory Today Then TS Elsa Close Path By Ocean City

Tropics

Tuesday July 6 2021

We are back with the high heat today. Temperatures will reach the upper 90s, and with the humidity feel close to 105ºF. That makes it dangerous for outdoor activities, unless you are by water for natural cooling.

A Hurricane Watch has been issued for the west coast of Florida. Tropical Storm Elsa is expected to track inland tonight and then off the coast close to Ocean City Thursday night. More on that below. 

Heat Advisory for central Maryland to southern Pennsylvania 

 

Morning Surface Weather

Our risk for storms will be low, thanks to High Pressure in control. However, there may be a line of storms arriving tonight from the north. 

On the far southern part of this map, we see Tropical Storm Elsa, which should make landfall on the Gulf coast of Florida tonight. More on that below.

Sunshine State Of Mind

I am done with the cold and snow (for the season). I am embracing my wife’s mantra of Sunshine State of Mind.

This was designed by Shannon Berk and we will be wearing it through spring and to the beach.

Double Benefit: Proceeds will be split between our nonprofit Just In Power Kids and the development of my new weather website. That has been scheduled to be ready to launch in May.
