While I have mentioned that 106 is within reach for NYC, I think that 103 or perhaps 104 is more likely.

WX/PT

I think 104 is the highest its getting....it seems for whatever reason in these big heatwaves that NYC's temp sometimes freezes after noon or 1pm....they did gain 5 degrees from the noon ob yesterday, but its a gell of a lot easier to go 91-96 than it is 100-106 just based off climatology alone.

I agree, but NYC has been rising at 3 degrees/hr for the past 2 hours and even if that decreased to 2 degrees/hr they'd have a shot at 105 or 106. The higher numbers are definitely within reach and more-so than they were earlier. But, I'd still have to lean more toward 104 for a high there.

I have never seen temps like this at noon in all my years of forecasting.Perhaps it was like this on JULY 21 1977 when it hit 104.

Lower DPs that day. Higher DPs and possible cloud build up today will probably slow heating this afternoon. I'm thinking 102-103 for NYC.

I was in Summer camp that year so I never experienced that heat.JULY 15 1995,it was 104 here with a 80 dewpoint.

RUC BUFKIT for KEWR at 01Z predicting a CAPE+ only of 6909 J/kg and a LI of -11. If we get something to break the cap, the storms can be briefly strong.

The numbers are outrageous, but I don't see anything breaking through. Here is Upton's sounding from this morning, pretty good for storms if something can break through
