The severe thunderstorm watches have been canceled earlier than expected. The overall forecast looks to improve slowly heading into tonight. The skies will slowly clear. The temperatures will remain warm and seasonable and the humidity that has smothered the region is easing back south temporarily.

Saturday looks perfect weather-wise. We'll have the sun and the heat, and the humidity will feel comfortable being outside. If all our Saturdays can be like this upcoming one for the remainder of the summer, then it will be remembered as one of the best summers weather-wise in recent memory.

The summery weather returns on Sunday. Humidity builds slowly through the day. The temperatures will be near or just above 90 degrees again. It will feel hotter, and the likelihood of nasty thunderstorms returns by day's end.
