SACRUS

Up to 83 and dew pints way up at 74. On the way to a scorcher in the area. We'll see if any pop up storms brings a brief reprieve to heat and dryness in much of the southern part of our area. The heat continues through the weekend, soaring on Sat and Sunday and into Monday (7/25) with highest temperatures likely on Sunday. Front pushes through on Monday as the Western Atlantic Ridge builds west next week. Believe more of a Florida pattern with more abundant and frequent storm chances. Also have to see of some variation of a stalled out boundary sets up near or north and west. Overall warm and more heat builds west to close the month and likely push strong heat subsequently into the area.

Some folks missed the clouds/storms on Sat and Sun and prolonged the heatwave in CNJ. New Brunswick was 91, 89 this weekend past.

Glenn Fry is playing : The Heat is On. Strong heat has come east and lingering around a bit through early next week. Surges of the strongest heat tomorrow Thu (7/21) where mid 90s to low 100s and then again Sun (7/24) and Mon (7/25). 850 temps >20c guidance was hotter at points but either way near record heat likely those days for many. Beyond there a brief reprieve in the strong heat but overall warm. The Western Atlantic Ridge is building back by Tue (7/26) and it looks quite humid. Outside some pop up storms here and there Thu (7/21) and Sun (7/24) not much in the way of forecasted rainfall. We do have to watch any front getting caught up as the W. A. R builds west next week, way out there but it could be setup just NW of the area.

Way out there but wonder if the next rain / soaker opportunity comes mid next week as the W. A R builds west and cold fornt pushes/stalls, or some tropical low caught under the high and rides up. Will see, otherwise looking warm/humid after this strong heat beyond the 27th and on.

I think they had or still have a sun issue. I doubt it will be addressed unless it gets extraordinarily off like TEB few years back. Also doubt they will clear the overgrowth at Central Park. I still find my temps closer to EWR/New Brnswck overall but we have had some onshore and southerflow of recent that has produced wide spread over short distances.

Central parks 3 inches plus of rain may keep them 88/89 on borderline days. We'll see how much this impacts there. Could be a 7 - 9 degree difference between EWR/NYC today

79/67 with 0.43 in the bucket. Hot town summer in the suburbs and probably (NYC). Overall hot pattern builds today, peaking twice in the next week firs (Wed 7/20 and Thu 7/20) with 850 temps >18c - 21C mid/upper 90s perhaps a stray 100 reading on the hotter spots challenging heat from 2011,2012, 2013 periods. Next spike of strong heat is Mon 7/24, Tue 7/25. Beyond there Wed (7/26) the westrrn Atlantic ridge is pushing west and setting up an overall warm to hot pattern to close out the month.

mace it to 95 before clouds moved in from the storm near PHlly/TTN.

79/75 here. Some storms moving through northern NJ/NYC earlier. We'll see how much clearing we can get to see if any spots can start the heatwave today or in some cases continue from last week (CNJ). Storms all day will fire in this tropical airmass as warm front pushes through. Otherwise the heat is on through the work week and likely into this weekend Sat (7/23) and Sun (7/24), next shot of widedpread storms could be Sat night into Sunday. Only clouds will deter mid /upper 90s Wed/Thu. Another strong heat blast is possible Mon (7/25) ahead of cold front. Beyond there Thu (7/28) the Western Atlantic highs is building west and overall looking like a most of the nationwide warm period to end the month.

Agree and i think much like yesterday and today, any shot at 90 will be in areas that see enough sun. Yesterday New brnswck and areas in C/SW NJ got to 90 while EWR/NYC were cloudy and storming in the afternoon. Today much the same CNJ up in the upper 80s and other areas with more clouds in the low 80s. 850 temps are warmer tomorrow so that could help propel heat on any period of sunshine more than this weekend. As far as central part that inch of rain plus what we get today and Monday will replenish the vegetation and could keep the park even lower than typically on the borderline days (Tue 7/19) and Sat 7/23, Sun 7/24).
