.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 214 PM EDT Mon Jun 29 2026

There have been a few showers showing up on radar over the
northeast, and a few showers and possibly thunderstorms will
continue over our northeastern areas through this afternoon before
dissipating by early tonight. Will continue to mention the
possibility of localized flooding in the HWO for any areas of
heavy rain that may occur over already saturated soils.

A large upper ridge over the eastern CONUS will dominate our weather
this week, providing mostly dry and very hot conditions.  The better
chances for an afternoon shower or thunderstorm will be over the
mountains Tuesday and Wednesday. By Thursday into the weekend, the
ridge axis shifts to our east and isolated to scattered showers and
storms will be possible even in valley areas mainly during the
afternoon hours.

The main story for the week looks to be the hot conditions. High
temperatures are expected to be in the 90s across all but the higher
elevations each day this week and through the weekend, with mid to
upper 90s across portions of the valley especially Wednesday through
Friday which right now look to be the hottest days.  Heat index
values around or above 100 will common in the afternoons, and heat
index values may exceed 105 across portions of the area especially
Wednesday and Thursday. While forecast heat index values are
borderline for a heat advisory at this time, based on the heightened
impacts of a multi-day period of very hot conditions a heat advisory
will be issued starting Tuesday and continuing through Thursday. It
may eventually need to be extended longer in time as it still looks
very hot Friday and into at least the beginning of the weekend, but
for now will start with this three day period given forecast
uncertainties in the longer ranges.

A short wave may bring more coverage of showers and storms along
with slightly lower temperatures by Sunday or Monday, but confidence
in the details is low that far out.

.AVIATION...
(00Z TAFS)
Issued at 713 PM EDT Mon Jun 29 2026

The main aviation impact this period will be the potential for fog
again at TRI. Vis went down hard last night, but the complicating
factor tonight will be whether clouds will clear out. Models show
conflicting signals on this, leading to a low confidence forecast.
For now, will maintain MVFR vis in the TAF with some scattered
clouds, but if clouds fully clear out, then vis will likely drop
hard again to LIFR or lower.
