Weather Authority: Humidity returns Thursday with chance of severe thunderstorms

FOX 29's Scott Williams has your Thursday forecast.

The humidity that subsided on Wednesday will return on Thursday as temperatures reach into the 90s under sunny skies. The warm and muggy conditions are expected to give way to isolated severe thunderstorms during the afternoon.

Morning conditions will start out in the low 70s but rising dew points will make conditions feel muggy and thick. By lunchtime, temperatures will be approaching the 90 degrees with sunshine and intermittent clouds.
