This is the new normal New York State,
back in the epicenter of extreme
weather just days after savage
July 4th storms the governor the
mobilizing resources and declara
state of emergency in Orange Co,
where one woman died after being
swept away by fast moving floodwaters.
In West Point, NY, many roads he
turned into rivers with rainfall levels.
They are being called once in a Millennium.
Forecasters predict up to two
inches per hour could fall in se
areas through Monday. This
is devastating. This used to bea
stream, and now it's a rowing r.
Many residents in New Hampshired
Vermont can only watch helplessy
as rushing water ravages proper.
It's not just the initial damag.
It's the wave, the 2nd wave
and the third wave, and we're
trying to anticipate that. Well,
I just washed my car and
swim away in Reading,
PA A daily rainfall record set in 1952
was shattered by an inch and a ,
and millions of people remain
under severe weather alerts in e
region through Tuesday morning.
New York's governor blames A
broader issue for the floods and
says all levels of government mt
work together to address it. How
we can stand up and it.
Using every bit of our power,
mobilizing to fight the ravages
of climate change because again,
these are unprecedented weather
events that keep hitting us
over and over and over again.
I'm Laura Aguirre reporting.
That's bad feel for those people
in the Northeast that some of tt
video we saw was just devastati.
Yeah, I mean, you get.
Five, 6-7 inches of rain in just a few hours.
I mean, there's the result.
I mean, it's terrible.
It really is. You know,
then there's other parts of the country
that are dealing with the heat, which,
you know, summertime of the United States,
the Northern hemisphere, that happens.
No record it's going to get hot here hotter,
but no record heat in our forec.
So and you know,
I'm doing something tonight on WFA at 10.
I hope you two can join me.
I'm, I'm looking at,
you know, because I
have a lot of people check
your schedule, Cynthia.
I have a lot of people that thet
handful of days last week as we.
They were like, you know this
is so much hotter this year,
this summer than last summer.
Oh, I don't. No way. The the anr
is and I I looked up all the numbers.
It's it's not even close but it's interesting
the the psychology. So I'm going
to talk about the psychology oft
tonight. I'm actually not but but I do
have the numbers tonight and it,
it's interesting looking these
numbers up and what people thin.
But again, we haven't had any rd
high temps so far this summer.
You know, we're a tad hotter thn
normal when it comes to the numr
of triple digit days we've had ,
we averaged to date four.
So but I'll have a full analysis
tonight on WFA at 10 and I'm gog
to compare it to the normals anm
comparing it to last year as we.
Appointment television. Oh my goodness.
Let me show you this. Here we g.
Check this out. Heat index one O
5 to 110 now through Wednesday.
This will probably be extended
through the end of the week bece
high temps now through the begig
Wednesday through Sunday are all right.
Around 100, maybe one O 11O2,
but again not a record.
The records during that time fr.
The coolest record highs one O .
The hottest record highs 110.
So we don't have any records,
but we're going to have some
dangerous heat with these.
A high heat index values high
today too hotter than normal.
The normal is 90.
95 we hit 97 the records.
107 sit back in 1917,
so we were 10 away from the record today.
The morning low, not too bad.
The normal low is 75.
We bottomed out at 78 outside.
Right now it's 96.
It feels like 113.
That's why we have the
heat advisory in effect.
E SE winds at 11 miles an hour.
Pollen today grass and fungus are both
there and they today are both l,
just as they were last week.
Mostly sunny skies out there at this point.
Well, let me.
Take a look quickly here.
Look down around Granberry.
Here a little thunderstorm betwn
granberry and and Meridian.
So a little bit of rain as we
head through the eating hours.
But the real activity happens as
we move through the the overnig.
By 7:00 o'clock West TX, the Panhandle
has a complex of storms develop.
It'll move in our direction.
So a little bit of spotty rain this evening.
Most of us are dry midnight ton.
There's the activity.
3:00 o'clock in the morning.
Here it is.
It's into the Dallas Fort Worth
area 2 Three 4:00 o'clock in the
morning we'll keep some rain ar.
Even at 5:00 AM,
six and 7:00 AM we still have some rain.
So overnight,
the farther to the northwest yo,
the higher your rain coverage.
The farther SE you head away from Dallas,
the lower your rain coverage bee
that complex will fizzle out.
But overnight it's a level one.
What does that mean?
Could we see some pea size hail?
It's possible.
I think,
and that's in the majority of North Texas,
maybe some 50 to 60 mile per hour winds,
that's all a possibility.
But the severe weather threat overnight,
it's not 0, but it is really lo.
7:00 tomorrow morning, there's the radar.
Look at that scattered rain arod
in the morning, there's noon.
Then we start to dry out as we
head through the afternoon.
Not completely dry.
There's 3:00 PM and then a litte
bit of rain maybe at 7:00 PM
in East Texas throughout the
evening tomorrow to the east of
the Dallas Fort Worth area.
The rain coverage is mainly in the morning,
but I'm not going to rule out
some rain in East Texas as we
head through the afternoon.
Otherwise it's definitely going to be hot,
hot tomorrow 96, a heat index of one O
5 and then triple digits right through
Sunday 100 to 102 with heat index value.
Values of one O 7 to maybe one O
9 or maybe touching 100 and 107.
That's the low tonight.
Remember overnight thunderstorm,
The chance of severe weather overnight
it's not 0, but it's really, really low.
But the wind threat,
certainly and certainly some
lightning and Thunder overnight.
Hot, humid and breezy tomorrow.
There it is, 96.
The high scattered rain tomorro.
And then after that the rain
machine shuts off Cynthia.
And when that shuts off,
temperatures jump.
Triple digits right through
Thursday of next week,
but you'll notice there are
no record high temps.
It's going to be hot.
The record highs range anywherem
107 all the way up to two days.
When we have record highs of 11,
we won't be in record territory,
but it will be darn hot as we
head through the rest of this wk
and certainly next week as well.
