I don't think Saturdays going to be much different from this past Monday. looks like most places crack 70.

absolutely should be an advisory today. even if it wasn't September the heat indices of 100+ warrant it

I disagree about Saturday, I think most places stay in the 60s. It'll be close to Monday but a bit cooler, the lows could be colder for many especially under ideal radiating conditions.

Lol at nws asleep at the wheel with no advisories...makes no sense

Dog days for sure

Not asleep, I think they were taken a bit by surprise though

 

STILL ON TRACK FOR HIGHS 10-15 DEGREES ABOVE NORMAL...WITH 12Z

KALY AND KOKX SUGGESTING MID 90S POSSIBLE AWAY FROM AREAS

INFLUENCED BY SEABREEZE. HOWEVER...DO EXPECT A FAIRLY STRONG

SEABREEZE GIVEN UNUSUAL WARMTH AND HUMIDITY HELPING TO DRIVE

NEARSHORE DENSITY GRADIENT RESPONSIBLE FOR SEABREEZE...SO NOT

EXPECTING TEMPERATURES TO GENERALLY REACH QUITE THAT HOT

INLAND...THOUGH A FEW ISOLATED READINGS IN THE MID 90S CANNOT BE

COMPLETELY RULED OUT. APPEARS DEWPOINTS WILL MAINLY BE IN THE

LOWER 70S THIS AFTERNOON DUE TO MIXING...THIS SHOULD KEEP HEAT

INDICES BELOW HEAT ADVISORY CRITERIA...THOUGH CANNOT COMPLETELY

RULE OUT AN ISOLATED 100 DEGREE HEAT INDEX READING FOR AN HOUR IN

NE NJ/LOWER HUDSON VALLEY. THE SEABREEZE SHOULD PRECLUDE THIS IN

NYC. SEE THE CLIMATE SECTION OF THE AFD FOR DETAILS ON POTENTIAL

FOR RECORD HIGHS.

that's like issuing a winter storm warning after 6" has fallen

yep. for the city too. Not sure why a separate advisory for 1 degree.

Agree. 850's are currently progged around +5/+6c for Saturday afternoon which should yield upper 60s for most, 40s at night for most. Cold shot early next week looks just as impressive particularly for NE of NYC into New England. Most of the interior Northeast will have had their first 32F by mid next week.

winds stay up friday night and the airmass modifies as it comes east so this cool shot won't be impressive... especially compared to the +10 to +20 of today

Yeah that was my point, and last friday many places barely hit 70 and had overnight lows in the 40s. Average high of 78, EWR probably hits 71 or 72 and thats the coolest of this cool shot

It shouldn't be a surprise. People saying summer was over in early august were foolish.

I hope that 1972 and 1983 aren't omens but basically the same thing happened. After some July heat in 1972 and lots of July heat in 1983 August cooled measurably. 1972 and 1983 both heated up in late August. September in both months featured heat and some record highs. Even 1972 had a record high of 92 two Sundays after Labor Day.
