The hottest July 4 cases tended to occur during hotter summers, overall. Summer (June 1-August 31) Mean Temperatures for Central Park: 10 Hottest July 4 Cases: 75.3° 10 Coolest July 4 Cases: 73.1° All Other Years: 74.1° Overall, though, the relationship is weak (coefficient of determination: 0.105)

For reference:

In large part because ocean temperatures are still relatively cool at this time of year, New York City saw the lowest temperature 1 day and 2 days after a low of 81F (27.2C) or higher following a shift in the wind off the water. Records go back to 1869.

Yes.

Tomorrow will be unseasonably cool. The mercury could struggle to reach 70° in New York City. It should rise into the lower 70s at Newark. The chilly highs will challenge the record for lowest high temperatures two days after an 80° or above low at Central Park, JFK Airport, and Newark. The existing records are below: Central Park: 71°, July 9, 1883 JFK Airport: 76°, July 23, 2019 Newark: 76°, July 23, 2019 All of those readings followed lows of 80° two days earlier. Central Park has had 72 lows of 80° or above; Newark has had 50; and, JFK Airport has had 16. Temperatures will return mainly to the lower 80s for the remainder of June. Excessive heat does not appear likely to return in the near-term. The ENSO Region 1+2 anomaly was +1.0°C and the Region 3.4 anomaly was 0.2°C for the week centered around June 18. For the past six weeks, the ENSO Region 1+2 anomaly has averaged +0.47°C and the ENSO Region 3.4 anomaly has averaged -0.03°C. Neutral ENSO conditions will likely continue through at least late summer. The SOI was +12.65 yesterday. The preliminary Arctic Oscillation (AO) was +1.073 today. Based on sensitivity analysis applied to the latest guidance, there is an implied 93% probability that New York City will have a warmer than normal June (1991-2020 normal). June will likely finish with a mean temperature near 73.1° (1.1° above normal).

96 and 5 days of 90 or above.

It did not reach 100°. The high was 99°.

I agree. The SSTs are hugely important. % of Lows in the 60s one day after an 80° or above low: July 15 or Before: 20.0% (4 out of 20 days) After July 15: 1.9% (1 out of 52 days) July 20 or Later: 0.0% (0 out of 44 days)

Today is just the 5th day on record that Central Park has seen the temperature fall into the 60s following a day with an 80° or above minimum temperature. There were 72 days with 80° or above lows.

The 3 consecutive 100 degree days in 1948 occurred during August 26-28.

Below is some historic data on the frequency of 90° or above highs and 80° or above lows. The frequency of 90° lows has decreased in parts of the July while increasing during roughly the July 15-25 period. Central Park's dense tree cover has likely contributed to the decreased frequency in parts of July. Central Park has seen 10 days with a decrease, including five days with a greater than 5 percentage point decrease. The nearest station (LaGuardia) has seen an increase on all but 3 days in July. Newark has seen a decrease on only 4 days. Both LaGuardia and Newark saw a decrease of greater than 5 percentage points on one day. JFK is affected by the sea breeze, which adds to the variability. Nevertheless, JFK has seen a greater than 5 percentage point decrease on only one day.

Final Data for the New York City Area’s Most Extreme June Heatwave on Record:

All the sites held onto their 80 or above lows yesterday.

Yesterday's final low temperatures:

Prior to 2025, here are the frequencies of 80 or above lows and 90 or above highs in Central Park during summer.

A selection of records from today:

The New York City area's most severe June heatwave is now concluding. The June 23-25 period saw the highest composite mean high temperature for the New York City area and the highest 3-day composite mean high temperature. No other event comes close. It even beat the synthetic 1- and 3-day periods. The synthetic 1-day mean temperature included all the pre-2025 highest June temperatures on record for a one-day period. The synthetic 3-day mean temperature include all of the pre-2025 3-day periods with the highest June average high temperatures on record. Comparisons:

The 30.3" snowstorm (10 sigma) is a rarer event than the back-to-back 102° days in June (6.7 sigma).

Tthe two consecutive 102° highs at JFK Airport (June 24-25, 2025) is only the second such streak on record there. The only other streak occurred during July 22-23, 2011.

JFK: 100

New Haven has reached 95°. June 24-25, 2025 is the only case where New Haven has seen 2 consecutive such days. The June monthly record is 96°, which was set June 17, 1957 and tied yesterday.

It will be a close call. Some of the guidance keeps the low at or above 80.

Following yesterday's June monthly record-tying 96F (35.6C) high, New Haven has reached 90F (32.2C) for the 4th consecutive day, breaking the June mark of 3 days from June 20-22, 2012 & June 28-30, 2021. The prior earliest such streak occurred during July 4-7, 2010.
