NYC Long Range Outlook Shows Possible Heatwave Building
Good morning everyone and welcome to deep summer. Our pattern still remains a little wonky as far as these fast moving systems and rainy/thundery periods, but we’re able to get some heat out of this as well. That heat will be with us throughout the next 7 days or so, then we’ll be watching closely for the prospects of a possible heatwave sometime between the 19th-21st of July, onward. Extreme heat is looking to build into the upper Midwest, then drift east as our active pattern finally begins to slow down a bit. In the meantime, look for showers and storms to come and go after 2 rain-free days today and tomorrow.
SATELLITE
Expect full sunshine today with near 90 temps. Those near 90 temps could transfer all the way near the shore, making for a perfect beach day.
Tomorrow we go very hot and more humid, with highs 90-95, possibly even a touch higher in the notoriously warmer spots – such as the Newark area, downtown Brooklyn, and the north shore of Queens.
WEATHER RADAR
Thursday is also looking very hot, but even more humid. Look for highs in the 90-95 range, and we introduce the chance of some late afternoon thunderstorms.
Things are looking a little gloomy on Friday, although we still pull off some warm temps. Expect warm and muggy conditions, on and off showers, and highs in the mid to upper 80’s.
The heat returns quickly on Saturday, with more muggy conditions, a mix of sun and clouds, and highs near 90. Expect more of the same for Sunday, with each day bringing the chance of a PM heavy Thunderstorm.
We’ll be keeping an eye on those temps closely, and see if this possible heatwave will come to fruition.
