Tropical moisture will remain high all the way through this big football weekend. This will cause daily showers and storms, primarily in the afternoon and evening.nbsp;Tonight Tomorrow: Wednesday's weather pattern is copy-pasting what we've seen lately. Expect temperatures to surge quickly after s unrise, climbing into the lower to mid-90s by the afternoon. High humidity will make it feel much hotter, driving heat index values into the 100deg;F to 108deg;F range. Peak heat will trigger scattered afternoon showers and storms, with about half of the area likely to see rain. Activity tapers off after sunset, leaving us with a warm night and lows around 74deg;.Up Next: A lingering front positioning itself just north of the I-10/12 corridor will divide drier air to our north from muggy air over southern Louisiana later this week. Don't look for a true fall cold front out of this, but it will serve as the focal point for numerous storms across the Capital Region. Expect elevated chances for heavy downpours and typical street flooding on both Thursday and Friday. Early-day cloud cover and afternoon rain will keep high temperatures slightly lower, topping out in the upper 80s to around 90deg;.Football Forecasts: You can keep your high school and college football plans on the calendar, but stay weather-aware. Friday night under the lights through Sunday won't be a total washout, but passing storms could bring lightning delays and send fans heading for cover temporarily.Get the latest 7-day forecast and real-time weather updates HERE.Watch live news HERE.The Tropics: Right at the historical peak of hurricane season, the Atlantic basin remains remarkably calm.

This year is on track to become just the third season on record to pull it off.ndash; BalinThe Storm Station is here for you, on every platform.
