NYC Long Very Warm/Hot Stretch Begins Tomorrow
Good morning everyone. We’re back and we’re still into the clouds a bit today as moisture draped along the East Coast finally begins to pull away slowly. That’ll make room for the longest stretch of very warm to hot weather this season, and we could wind up having a well-above-average August overall.
SATELLITE
Cloudy skies and comfortable temps will be with us for one more day today. We could see some late clearing, but the morning clouds will impact the heating for the day. Rain is still holding on tight out on the east end of Long Island, and we should have that out of here in a couple of hours. Look for highs near 80, but then we only drop to near 70 overnight; a sign the heat is on the way.
WEATHER RADAR
Sunshine, near 90 temps, and increasing humidity will be on the menu for tomorrow. A few extra clouds and the very slight chance of an afternoon shower may hold us in the upper 80’s for Saturday, but then sunshine and near 90 temps return for Sunday.
The ridge will be in place courtesy of that Bermuda High I’ve been warning about for the past 2 weeks, and we’ll start the week on Monday in the near 90/low 90 realm. We go all week with the heat, with low to mid 90’s possible by late week.
Aside from a speed bump here or there, I believe the heat is rather persistent. Upper 80’s to low 90’s will be a common sight for the next 2 weeks or so, and we’ll see if we can stretch that even longer. I don’t see a lot of rain out there, so minor drought conditions may develop quickly when combined with the heat.
