PHILADELPHIA (CBS) – Dangerous heat and humidity are the weather department’s most important story in the next 48 hours. On Sunday, temperatures rose in the great 1990s circulating in the region, peaking at 98 degrees in Philadelphia. Sunday’s record is one hundred degrees set in 1930.
When it charges the humidity today, we can expect it to look like the 3 digits.

The only places to escape the full w8 heat h8 will be the northern regions like Poconos and on the New Jersey coast.
It also turns out it’s still dry today.
The afternoon hours will provide little relief from hot and sticky conditions. Lows from afternoon to Monday morning fell slightly in the 1970s.
Some isolated showers or thunder rumbles can also expand tonight, but they’re rare.
Monday peak of excessive heat, since a misty day, very hot and very humid is on the appointment for the birth of the week of painting. Tomorrow’s peaks will be close to 98 in the city and will not be unforeseen if some spaces even touch the 3 digits with the specific temperature, not the heat index.
When it integrates warm weather with h8 humidity on Monday, it can be hot up to 110 degrees in the afternoon.
A couple of isolated thunderstorms don’t seem to be ruled out on Monday either. However, they would be quite random.
A heat-like fitness emergency has been declared for Philadelphia beginning at 8:30 a.m. on Monday and is expected at midnight.
The emergency turns on the city’s emergency extraction programs, which come with the Philadelphia Aging Corporation’s heat line, cooling centers, home visits through special equipment, and increased awareness of daylight hours for hovain people. The city also reminds the public to safely check friends, relatives and senior neighbors remotely.
“Even though the city has opened one or more sites to support our maximum vulnerable cooldown during the heat-like fitness emergency, the most productive thing we can do to support our circle of relatives, neighbors and people who are enjoyed is making the most of it this time to see them. This is also done remotely, over the phone or, if they have sufficient mastery of generation, per video. It’s also an opportunity to put on your mask, knock on your door, step back six feet and say hello. Ask them if they prefer anything; If you are concerned about your defense or prefer something you cannot provide, call Heatline at 215-765-9040. Remember that we are a neighborhood city and neighborhoods are just paintings if we are actually neighbors,” said health commissioner Dr. Thomas Farley.

We received limited relief until Tuesday. Temperatures will continue to be in the mid-1990s, but humidity is more comfortable.
Until the middle of the week, humidity increases from Wednesday to Thursday. Some thunderstorms can also take up position on Wednesday and beyond Thursday because h8 temperatures are minimal in the 1990s.
We move on to a more seasonal genre on Friday and next weekend.
