Possible heat advisories as dangerous temperatures persist

Rain chances rise as a cold front brings relief and risk of storms

. (.)

Our sweltering summer days continue, with possible Heat Advisories this weekend.

We’ve gone from sizzling to scorched as heat and humidity combine for Feels Like temperatures up to 108 degrees today. The pattern continues Saturday with increasing chances of rain, cooling us off by a couple of degrees on Sunday.

A cold front will slide south, slowing over southeast Georgia on Sunday. Sea breeze showers and storms will be possible on Saturday, as the front will provide better chances of rain area-wide. Strong to isolated severe storms will be possible. Locally heavy rain, damaging winds, and lightning will be the main concerns.
