The forecasters are warning that the storm is not only stormy but also dangerous on both land and sea.
It’s going to be a challenge to find relief on Wednesday, June 26th.
The National Weather Service (NWS) has issued a warning that should not be taken lightly if you plan on seeking refuge at a beach today. According to the NWS, there is a high risk of rip currents that can be life-threatening at New Jersey beaches. The situation is slightly better at Delaware beaches, with a moderate risk of rip currents. If you are still planning on taking a dip, make sure you only swim in areas where lifeguards are present. Additionally, refrain from entering the water if the beach is closed to the public. Stay safe and enjoy your beach day!
According to the weather map above, some parts of NJ and PA may experience heat indexes of up to 100 degrees prior to the arrival of thunderstorms. As a result, heat advisories have been issued in various counties in both states.
The National Weather Service has concluded that there is a high probability of strong to severe thunderstorms later in the afternoon and evening.
“Stay alert for destructive wind gusts, sizable hail, intense rainfall, and the potential for one or two tornadoes! Ensure that you have a reliable method of receiving warnings and take shelter in a secure structure when storms loom.”
According to Accuweather, the positive aspect of the storms is that they are expected to reduce the heat, and the temperature on Thursday, June 27 is likely to go down to 88. Although the morning is expected to be rainy, the National Weather Service predicts that the sun will come out in the afternoon.
The upcoming Friday, June 28, is looking like a perfect summer day with temperatures hovering around 80 degrees and clear blue skies.
