The heat dome ridge peaks overhead early tomorrow, then slowly begins to collapse. As it does so, this opens the door for thunderstorms fire up, as the suppressing subsidence forcing associated with the high pressure dome goes with it. This does not mean we cool off fast though, dangerous heat and humidity will continue through the weekend. Because of this, any storms that do fire, could easily become strong to severe. We are outlooked for severe weather on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday in the DC region. Friday: Marginal risk. We're still under the capping influence of the ridge most of the day, so any storms that do fire should be isolated in nature. Most models keep the majority of the region sunny & dry again. Just can't rule out a few pop-up, especially later in the day if there is a complex in PA during the late afternoon, at it's outflow could come south and trigger storms. Saturday: Slight risk. We'll be in the sweet spot for ridge riders...strong thunderstorms riding the outskirts of the weakening heat some. Storms will likely fire over the mountains during the peak heat of the day (1-4pm) and then shift eastward as their outflow boundaries trigger additional storms. Won't wash out the 4th, but there is serious concern that storms will impact events downtown for at least a period of time Saturday evening. We will be here monitoring. Sunday: Ample energy ahead of a cold front which should put an end to this intense heatwave...but may do so with some intense storms. Will have to monitor for scattered severe storms, or possible squall line type system to come through. We're in an extended day 4 slight risk from SPC as things stand right now. GRAF only goes out through early Sunday morning at the moment, but I've got the latest run for you below. We'll keep you updated on timing and will be here all weekend watching radar for you as events go on downtown.
