82 imby. Made it to 101 yesterday. Dreaming of chasing extreme lake effect snow. I can vision that black clouds against that arctic blue sky as the energy builds over Lake Ontario. Watching the radar light up with yellow and orange as the band gathers strength and moves right at your location. It's super exciting. It's like chasing severe thunderstorms but more fun imo.

NYC hit 104 yesterday at both LGA and Central Park

82/72 currently this morning, we jumped up to 88 from 78 at around 3 am when the wind veered to the nw from the south

Muhlenberg Township Police Department · ·doSosetrnp740li8gfc6ti01267701879h0h40303i15m3cafcu2fug179il · Mass Casualty Incident Declared During Union Pacific Big Boy #4014 Event Muhlenberg Township, PA — July 2, 2026 On July 2, 2026, the Muhlenberg Township Police Department, in partnership with the Muhlenberg Ambulance Association and Muhlenberg Fire Company, provided public safety and emergency medical coverage for the scheduled arrival of Union Pacific Railroad’s historic steam locomotive, Big Boy #4014, at the Reading & Blue Mountain Railroad Outer Station, located at 3501 Pottsville Pike, Reading, Pennsylvania. The event drew an estimated crowd of several thousand spectators in addition to more than 900 passengers arriving aboard excursion railcars. Due to operational delays along the locomotive’s route, the anticipated arrival was postponed for more than one hour. During this period, outdoor temperatures reached approximately 106 degrees, creating hazardous conditions for attendees who had gathered at the site. Beginning shortly before the Big Boy steam engine’s arrival and continuing throughout the event, emergency responders treated a significant number of individuals suffering from heat-related illnesses and medical emergencies. Patients ranged in age from infants to elderly adults. As the number of medical incidents rapidly increased, a Mass Casualty Incident (MCI) was declared to facilitate the deployment of additional emergency resources. More than 100 individuals received medical treatment on scene, and 35 patients were transported to area hospitals for further evaluation and care. One patient suffered cardiac arrest and was successfully resuscitated prior to transport. The Muhlenberg Township Police Department was assisted by the Berks County Sheriff’s Office, Pennsylvania State Police, Reading & Blue Mountain Railroad Police, Berks County Department of Emergency Services, numerous fire departments, and EMS agencies from throughout Berks County and neighboring counties. Additional support was provided by Tower Health and BARTA through the deployment of cooling resources to assist affected individuals. The coordinated response by local, county, and regional public safety partners demonstrated the effectiveness of mutual aid cooperation and the commitment of emergency responders to protecting the public during a large-scale emergency incident. The Muhlenberg Township Police Department extends its sincere appreciation to every law enforcement agency, fire department, EMS provider, healthcare partner, business, organization, volunteer, and supporting agency that responded to or assisted during this event. Their professionalism, dedication, and willingness to work together played a critical role in ensuring the safety and well-being of those in attendance. Additional information will be released if warranted as the incident review process continues. Randall C. Hoover Chief of Police Muhlenberg Township Police Department

Brained in HFD 82 for low

Slept thru this miss. Lightning and thunder from the previous two misses woke me up. Was there much lightning with it?

Fuzzy Anvils= great name for a punk polka band 69f here

We bear Little one

Hopefully one of those concrete pits has a min of 90° in my lifetime. We’re getting closer

Several mesonet sites, even rural ones, are in the low 80s.

Heard it to my north but it never made it this far south.

Looks like pur low here will be 77. Yesterday was 99/76. today feels like it will be hotter. Swim meet this morning should be fun …

Low of 76 Forecast high is 103. Made it to 99 yesterday with a forecast high of 102.

Just saw got missed again overnight . Sturbridge with another one

80° here. I'd die for the '60s.

The fact that it was 84 up here in the sticks so to speak at 12:30am isn't almost nuts, it is nuts. 73/70 now.

EWR 88

Winds have turned offshore and jfks temp rose over night back to 87. There will be no relief at the beaches this morning. In fact beaches will potentially be the hottest places with a desert like feedback off the dry sand. I’ll be praying for the wind to flip back onshore in the afternoon. JFK may break its all time record today .

69.4°

So far, and probably still have about 2 more hours to go... but the low temp at DCA is 84

82/70 currently.

Logan is 83 for the low. Wow

Ewr obs yesterday are just sick Peak at 105 and bottom out at 84 89 at 4 am like Arizona but with dews

100 degrees yesterday was a record here. My wife’s car was reading 107 on her drive home yesterday afternoon. Ended up being 2.57” short of rain in June. Sounds like a hot one again today, with severe storms coming in the afternoon.

From this morning LWX AFD Record temperatures will continue through much of the upcoming Independence Day holiday weekend. An upper ridge remains parked across a vast portion of the southeastern U.S. into the Tennessee/Ohio Valleys and Mid-Atlantic region. Lower tropospheric temperatures remain very anomalous and record breaking in nature. Of note, the 00Z IAD sounding reported an 850-mb temperature of 25.0 C which is not only the 3rd highest of all time, but breaks the daily record by over 4.0 C. Recent 00Z models show a subtle decrease in these 850-mb temperatures. However, based on yesterday`s observations, models have been slightly too cool with this layer of the atmosphere. Thus, see little reason to diverge from another hot forecast with widespread temperatures punching into the 98 to 102 degree range. Even during the writing of this discussion (~3 AM), a number of the warmer spots remain entrenched in the upper 70s to mid 80s. High dew points should also remain a fixture in the forecast with readings holding steady in the low/mid 70s. Although some boundary layer mixing could slightly lower such dew points, the combination of triple digit highs and low 70s dew points will easily crank heat indices to around 110F. Extreme Heat Warnings continue from 10 AM until 9 PM across a bulk of the Mid-Atlantic region. For those in the Blue Ridge, Alleghenies, and across the central Shenandoah Valley, heat indices around 100 to 104 degrees supports Heat Advisories today.
