The avg daytime error for temps the last 28 days at ewr is 4-5 degrees. When you have a westerly wind component it becomes way to warm 

A westerly wind is a downsloping wind. It leads to heating in such cities as Newark and Hartford, which often  wind up much warmer than other localities that are less impacted by the downsloping winds.

A simple explanation of the link between downsloping winds and rising temperatures from the Binghamton office of the National Weather Service is:

As a parcel of air rises, there is less and less air above it so the air parcel expands due to the decreasing surrounding air pressure. Likewise, as an air parcel descends there is more and more air above it so the parcel becomes compressed. The Ideal Gas Law (PV=nRT) tells us that if the pressure of an air parcel changes but all other aspects of the parcel remain the same, there must be a corresponding change in temperature to keep the equation balanced. Thus, rising air expands and cools while descending air compresses and warms.

Certainly. The latest maps have the appearance of one of the hottest summers of all time in this area. I'm not sure we can verify all the guidance, but if we do, we have a shot at the top 5 hottest summers.

WX/PT

We are well on our way to this summer being one of the hottest in the last 45 years
