Hot & Humid Friday, Then a Break in Humidity This Weekend

SPRINGFIELD, Mass. (WGGB/WSHM) - We had a warm and humid start to the day, so not very refreshing. Even a couple of hit or miss showers early in the morning. We have another hot and humid day ahead.
**A Heat Advisory remains in effect for Hampden, Hampshire, Franklin and southern Berkshire County until Friday 8:00 p.m.
Highs today range in the middle 90’s with dew points in the upper 60’s and lower 70’s. This brings your feels-like temperatures into the upper 90’s and even around the triple digits. This is dangerous heat.
We’ll have sun and clouds for many hours today, but we have enough instability in the atmosphere, and an approaching cold front, we may see a few isolated thunderstorms pop up later this afternoon and evening.
Tonight, we’re partly cloudy warm and turning less humid with lows falling to either side of 60°. A little more refreshing.
Behind our cold front, we don’t get cooler, but we turn much less humid. Sun and clouds both Saturday and Sunday. Still hot but less humid, following Friday’s cold front, with highs in the upper 80’s to around 90°.
Another cold front comes through late on Sunday break the heat, allowing for some cooler temperatures next week. Perhaps an evening shower or storm late on Sunday. This is followed by more seasonable weather for next week.
