In Northeast Pennsylvania, isolated to scattered thunderstorms may develop as a cold front pushes through the area today, according to weather alerts issued by the National Weather Service in Binghamton, NY. The storms could produce damaging wind gusts, hail, heavy rainfall, and the possibility of an isolated tornado. Local authorities also caution that heavy downpours may lead to isolated flash flooding through this evening.

Residents are advised to be alert as the weather could also bring strong storms Saturday night. Looking ahead, there is high confidence that oppressive heat and humidity could lead to a significant heat wave from Sunday through Tuesday.

People in the affected areas are encouraged to monitor updates on www.weather.gov/bgm or through local media for the latest watches and warnings.
