‘Triple H’ weather is here to stay
Posted June 4, 2008
RALEIGH, N.C. — Wednesday marked the beginning of a very hot period that will likely last through the next week, WRAL Chief Meteorologist Greg Fishel said.
(...)
That chance is only slight, however, and should be over by about 10 p.m., according to the National Weather Service. In most areas of the Triangle, Wednesday night will be muggy and warm – the three summertime Hs of hot, humid and hazy.
