Hi, this is Vinnie Rogers, steve Pelletier and I am the Weatherman. Thanks for checking in to TheWeathermanPodcom on your Wednesday 16th day of the month of July 2025. Well, a stationary front lies across much of southern New England, extending right through central Jersey down the I-95 corridor down to Philadelphia, just over Wilmington, north of Baltimore and north of DC, extending just across the northern panhandle of West Virginia into central Ohio where it joins with another frontal system that's stationary, that lies from northern Texas, from Amarillo northward, up north of Chicago over Milwaukee and then into southern and eastern Canada. Now, along the frontal system over the Great Lakes, there's a little series of low-pressure systems and similar with a little frontal system that's poking across the mid-Atlantic and northeast. That means we're going to have some partial sun, but also late-day and evening thunderstorms. A flood watch in effect for many communities across the northeast corridor from about 3 pm to about 3 am because of the possibility of some heavy downpours. Today. Similar situation comes up on Thursday. Now, both days, today and tomorrow, highs will range to near 90 in these affected areas, but showers and thunderstorms likely between 3 pm and around 10 pm both today and on Thursday. On Thursday, however, high pressure is building southward from the Dakotas, that frontal system that's stationary right now across the Great Lakes waiting for this system to just go offshore. The Bermuda High breaking down a bit With that frontal system moving through high pressure will build in.

It looks like we've got some nice weather for Friday, saturday and Sunday of this upcoming weekend. Of course each day does have that possibility of some thunderstorms, but for the most part nothing like what we're going to be having in the northeast on Wednesday and Thursday. It should be dry. Friday, saturday and Sunday Maybe clouding up, with the possibility of more thunderstorms later in the day with the next frontal system. Here, if you're flying today it looks like generally showers and thunderstorms in Charlotte, atlanta looking pretty good, central and South Florida still under those afternoon and evening heavy thunderstorms Could cause some delays there. Houston's dry, dallas hot and dry, Also looks like showers, but on the light side. For Chicago heavier rain. Up around Minneapolis-St Paul north of the front Out on the west coast looks like dry in Los Angeles, san Francisco, also Portland and Seattle on the dry side, generally nice summertime weather along the west coast today. I'm your host, steve Felt, and I am the weatherman. Hope you have a great day today. Talk to you first thing on Thursday. See you then.
