Greenbelt's 5 Things: It's Still Hot

1. WEATHER » Three familiar words: sunny, hot, humid. Temperatures will be in the upper-90s, but with a heat index of 105 and 61 percent humidity, it’ll be a sticky scorcher. Mother Nature continues to tease with a slight chance of storms, but relief-by-rain can be expected Saturday with a 70 percent chance of precipitation. If it does rain today, expect less than a tenth of an inch of water. The National Weather Service’s code orange air quality alert, as well as its hazardous weather outlook, will still be in effect from yesterday. Children, people suffering from asthma, heart or lung diseases and the elderly should avoid strenuous outdoor activity. Take a look at the week ahead here.
