Hi, this is meteorologist Steve Pelletier and I'm the weatherman. Thanks for checking into theweathermanpodcom. On your Thursday, 19th day of the month of June 2025. A month that has been in the northeast, on the cool side. That's going to be changing, as we're expecting a frontal system to move through the area from DC up to the Boston region, including New York City, philadelphia, baltimore and up in Hartford. We're expecting the possibility of some locally heavy thunderstorms, with the frontal system arriving during the latter afternoon and evening hours on Thursday. Now that's also going to be preceded by some sunshine and warmer temperatures. Highs could get up close to 90 in New York City, 80s in northwest Jersey, northeast in PA, south-southern New York and even up to about 92, 93 Baltimore and DC before the thunderstorms hit. Thunderstorms basically represent a frontal system moving through the area and high-pressure building in behind it. The high pressure at first is a nice, beautiful day For the first day of summer, the summer solstice occurring at 1047 pm, eastern Daylight Time on Friday evening, and at that point the sun will reach its highest point in the sky at high noon and looks like the earliest sunrise and the latest sunset.

Basically, that has been changing a little bit. It's not really true, I think the sunrise has been now working its way the other way. It's the sunset that's going to be in New York City, say, around 833. It's been now working its way the other way. So the sun sets that's going to be in New York City, say, around 8.33. And well, with that in mind, from here on in we'll probably hover right around there somewhere around sunrise at 5.30, sunset around 8.30. And then that starts to break down and you see the sunrise getting later each and every day, sunset earlier by the time you head to the end of July and during the month of August. But that's another story. We've got some very warm weather moving in A great day for Friday, but then it looks like Saturday, sunday, monday and even Tuesday. The temperatures continue to rise near 90 on Saturday, in the 90s on Sunday, mid-90s on Monday and Tuesday of next week, and possibly another frontal system moving through the northeast corner sometime around the middle of the last full week of the month of June next week.

In the meantime, if you are flying today, it looks like the weather situation has improved. In Atlanta They've been having several days of scattered showers and thunderstorms, but locally severe weather is expected across Ohio, around Cleveland and Toledo southward at Cincinnati and northern Kentucky. That area will be advancing eastward Also, rainy conditions in Chicago that will be causing some delays at Midway and O'Hare. Also in the southern portion of Florida there will be some scattered late-day thunderstorms but most of the time it will not be raining. But it is a rainy season down there. So it looks like, especially on the west coast where they'll have showers from Tampa, st Pete all the way down to the Keys. New Orleans will have some rain, houston dry.

It looks like some showers in the afternoon at Dallas-Fort Worth with some very warm weather. Warm conditions across the nation's midsection are actually the central plain states in Nebraska, kansas, northward up to the Dakotas and North Dakota. There'll be some more rainy weather with another frontal system there and dry conditions on the West Coast continue from San Francisco down to San Diego, northward up to Portland and Seattle. No problems weather-wise getting into those places. The big story will be the heavy weather across the eastern Great Lakes, the Ohio Valley and the Northeast as the frontal system and the transition takes place over to some heat and humidity that will be arriving this upcoming weekend. I'm Eddie Rollins, I'm Steve Pelletier and I'm the weatherman. Hope you have a great day today. Talk to you first thing on Friday. Take care.
