00:00Summer is coming to the mid-Atlantic, the eastern Ohio Valley, and parts of the northeast into this coming week.
00:06It initially surges into the Ohio Valley and areas around the mid-Atlantic on Sunday.
00:12While not everybody gets into it, it's going to be a big rise for some from Pittsburgh south and west.
00:17Meanwhile, New England on Sunday is going to stay a little cool.
00:20A lot of areas will be flirting with near 50-degree highs there in the Adirondacks
00:24and in places like Boston, low 50s on Sunday is about all we can do.
00:28But we'll be in the low 80s in Pittsburgh and Indianapolis, upper 80s for some others, down into Charleston, West
00:33Virginia.
00:34Through Tuesday and Wednesday, the heat builds in a big way across the south and the east,
00:39and it's a large ridge of high pressure with most of the storminess staying well west into the plains.
00:44By Tuesday afternoon, some of our afternoon highs are going to be on par with mid-summer heat.
00:51That means places like Philadelphia, where your historical average during the warmest part of the summer
00:57is deep into the upper 80s, 88, 89 degrees.
00:59We're going to be around there.
01:00And through Wednesday and Thursday, the spring heat wave continues to challenge records
01:05from areas around southeast Pennsylvania all the way down through the Carolinas.
01:09By the way, we just can't buy a drop of rain in areas like north Georgia all week long.
01:14Take a look at Philadelphia.
01:15We're going to be surging up into the upper 80s by Wednesday.
01:18And in Washington, D.C., 90 to 95 degrees, scorching heat here for April on Tuesday, Wednesday, and even Thursday.
01:27A true heat wave coming to Washington, D.C. as we string together most likely three days of 90-plus
01:32degree heat.
01:33There will be some storms that eventually knock on our door moving into the Great Lakes region,
01:37and that will trim the heat just a bit into midweek.
01:40We're going to be on the right side of the Great Lakes region, and we're going to be on the
01:41right side of the Great Lakes region.
