Starting Friday and leading into the weekend, two storm systems will be hitting the Northeast hard. Residents of the area should be alert of potentially dangerous situations caused by the thunderstorms this weekend, however Monday is expected to bring the highest risk of severity that the region has seen in weeks.
Storms on Friday
With warmer, summer temperatures spreading across the Northeast, the humidity will only be adding fuel to the storms' fire. Residents of central Appalachians, northern New York and New England should be prepared to get hit with the storms on Friday. This storm system is also likely to hit much of the Interstate 95 corridor.
Friday evening is set to bring even more severe weather, including heavy downpours, hail, and strong wind gusts that may damage trees, power lines, and property.
Although the risk of severity is lower from north-central Pennsylvania to southern Vermont, residents should still be aware and stay updated with the latest weather.
