NYC Heatwave Labor Day Weekend Into Next Week
Good morning everyone. Now that the tropical weather stories have died down (for now), we focus back on the heat that is expected to build back into the Northeast and the New York City area. It’ll be a slow build as we have a spectacular day today and tomorrow, but things happen fast as Sunday is going to be very warm to hot, and we go from there.
A couple of days ago, we said that this very warm to hot weather was expected to last until some time between September 8th and 10th. This all depended on the timing of our next front, and it looks like September 8th could be the last day of this stretch looking at the new data.
Check out the latest below….
SATELLITE
For today, look for full sunshine aside from a few wispy cirrus clouds. Light easterlies will keep us on the mild side with highs in the mid to upper 70’s.
WEATHER RADAR
Your holiday weekend starts off pleasantly warm, with more sunshine and highs near 80. Sunday is when things suddenly switch from comfortable to not, but the sunshine remains a key player. Light SW winds and full sunshine will help give us a very warm/hot humid day with highs in the upper 80’s to near 90.
For your Labor Day, we go full hot & humid with highs in the low 90’s. If the wind profile cooperates, we could see a few mid 90 readings in spots.
Tuesday remains hot with highs in the near 90/low 90 realm with sunshine, and we do another repeat for Wednesday. We keep things going for Thursday, with more sunshine and highs in the upper 80’s to near 90. Friday is when we’ll be watching our next front and depending on the timing, we would see another upper 80 to low 90 day with the chance of PM showers/storms.
