It looks like we start to warm things back up on Friday with the weekend looking hot, humid and sticky with temps in the upper 80's and lower 90's which should extend into the beginning of next week.

Yep, it looks like a high DP/Humidity summer for the NYC metro with the hottest temps staying to our north and also west as you mentioned at least for now. So far this month I have had 8 days with temps reaching between 90-95 here.

Picked up 0.19" of rain so far today.

Portions of the NYC metro now under a Severe Thunderstorm Watch until midnight.

We had a 6 day heatwave with temps ranging anywhere from the low to upper 90's around mid month. The high temperature for the month topped out at 97 in NYC which probably means places just to the west over NE NJ topped out a bit hotter then that.

Current temp up to 91 here. Another day of 90+ in the books.

We have seen the GFS do this plenty of times in the longer range so it could be and probably is fantasy. I am more concerned with precipitation and amounts over the next 7 days more than anything else.

Your not kidding. Knowing the GFS it will probably be bone dry at 00z.

Mount Holly has similar thoughts. Upton: Friday could be interesting meteorologically speaking. Global models are beginning to depict a broad low pressure system near North Carolina forming off the decaying front from earlier in the week. This inverted trough rides the synoptic flow north nearing Long Island Friday. With it precipitable water values increase to around 1.5-1.7 inches. Depending on the nature of the system and its proximity, southern New York could see increased rain chances for Friday. Attention shifts over the weekend to the trough and frontal system deepening near the Ohio River valley. This could be a fairly a traditional frontal system with CAPE values around 500-1000 J/kg and unidirectional shear meaning that strong to severe thunderstorms may be possible. The exact timing remains uncertain, but current guidance is hinting towards a Sunday into Monday timeframe.
