Synopsis:
One more hot and humid day is on the way for today. A Heat Advisory has been issue for NYC and parts of NJ for temperatures in the lower 90s and high humidity. The combination of these two conditions will make it feel close to 100º at times. Please drink plenty of fluids and stay out of the sun if possible.
Scattered storms are expected to develop by mid-afternoon and continue into the evening. A few of the storms may become severe. Torrential rain and frequent lightning will accompany the storms.
By Friday, the front will slip to the South, cooling us off considerably but on and off rain and spotty storms will remain in the forecast due to the proximity of the front. Some of the rainfall maybe heavy.
The weekend will be a winner with plenty of sunshine, warm temperatures and low humidity as the front moves offshore and weak high pressure moves in.
Stay tuned.
