Evening bathing could also benefit personal hygiene. “Nighttime showers allow for cleaning the dirt of the day,” says Dr. Ranella Hirsch, a Boston-area dermatologist. That includes dust, allergens, sweat, and pollution. Go to bed without rinsing them off, and they may irritate the skin and transfer to your sheets.

The second half of July and the early days of August are the perfect time to get outside and look at the night sky. That's when three of the year's best meteor showers peak, each with their own special idiosyncrasies.

The City of Mebane is now allowing showers under Stage V restrictions. Bottled water and mobile restrooms are helping fill the gaps.

Scattered showers and isolated storms rolled in over South Florida on Thursday morning. Added moisture coming in from the east will result in higher coverage of showers and storms as the day progresses. In the afternoon, the rain activity will form inland and move toward the Gulf.

Air you can wear” returns to Northeast Ohio on Thursday, bringing muggy conditions and a chance for pop-up showers and storms before temperatures surge on Friday and Saturday.

Double the meteors will be visible in the night sky later this month when two meteor showers peak at the same time to create a spectacular light show. Two meteor showers — the southern Delta Aquarids and the Alpha Capricornids — will both peak on the nights of July 29 through July 30.

This should lead to a higher area seeing rain. Sunday rains could be here all day long, limiting severe weather chances and keeping high temperatures in the mid-80s. Friday highs should hit the upper 80s, and we have a shot to hit 90 degrees on Saturday. I think we will be just shy of 90 in Pittsburgh.
