The bolt of lightning struck just above her right shoulder near her neck, and passed right to left through her body, tearing her warm-ups, causing her tennis shoes to explode, and lifting her two feet into the air.

75 / 67 here clouds early from the MCS that was a bit more widespread and too a more SSE track than some modeled. Clouds this morning , rain in northern areas from storms will limit max heating to low - mid 90s. Areas in CNJ south who avoid rain and clear out sooner may get to the upper 90s. Clearing by noon (3-4 hours. Hot Mon - Wed 85 MB temps >21 c, only wind flow direction and clouds, and maybe park overgrowth will get in the way of the century mark Tue/Wed. Thus may be dealing with lingering debris clouds but there will be a sharp change from upper 90s to low 90s to 80s near the city.
Friday onshore flow and scattered showers. We'll see how much we clear out and if we can get a dry weekend 28-29th.
Beyond there overall warm - hot / humid and wetter to open with ridge and next heat building north and east towards the 3rd.

Thanks Tony, do you have anything from the 6 day heatwave at JFK in 1948 that peaked at 101?
1948 was when their period of record began.
53 was drier (very dry)/ the heat was most pronounced in late August in September.

both the GFS and Euro have warm to hot temps with some isolated storm potential. The days leading up to 2/3 and weekend 5/6 look warm-hot and humid, Lots of high 80s - low 90s potential. We'll see how the storms / fronts position.

I think it kind of dives south a bit overnight.
But clearly it's not coming over us.
Next shot at rain Wed PM and Thu - could be interesting.

On wed the GFS has this system over our area and the EURO seems to have had the right idea keeping it nort overnight

Up to 91 here for a high now at 88
