Strong thunderstorms target 70M across Northeast and Mid-Atlantic with wind and hail threat

Another round of strong thunderstorms are expected to develop from Kentucky to Upstate New York Friday afternoon. Storms will charge east toward the heavily populated Interstate 95 corridor through the day. Damaging wind gusts and hail will be the primary hazards. The severe weather is being fueled by near-record heat, with temperatures forecast to reach the mid 90s from the Carolinas to New York City.
