Our heatwave will be delayed several days due to this record ridge being further east than average. But we will probably see 95-100° heat by early next week in NJ. Remember the last ridge amplification in late June also had the main heat delayed by several days.

I don't actually wish that, just a joke. I'm excited about this warmer climate.

I know, I was saying it more tongue in cheek, because it just shows the irony of how people who root for one thing get upset when others root for the opposite.

77 / 67 partly cloudy 0.04 in the bucket.  A few degrees off the last two days but should still get the warm spots to 90s.  Two day refrain from the heat Fri (7/12) and Sat (7/13) as the Atlantics ridge western extent  butts up against boundary and southerly tropical flow leads to some drnching rains.   Heat back Sun (7/14) - Wed (7/17) with peak heat Tue (7/16) and wed with a blast of  850 temps  of > 20C.   Looks like some storm potential on Monday may limit the stronger heat mid-upper 90s, but we'll see the timing.

 

Break in the heat Thu (7/18) into next weekend ahead of next round as western heat pushes east.

 

7/11 : Hot / humid storms
7/12 - 7/13 :  Storms - potential drenchers +2.00
7/14 - 7/17 : Hot, mid - upper 90s - potential 100 degree readings Tue and Wed ahead of front/trouh
7/18 - 7/21 : Repreive from heat - near normal
7/22 and beyond : Overall warm to hot - next push of heat from west

Parts of Central NJ are approaching their all-time record highest number of 95° days in a year. Hightstown already has 11 days and it’s only July 10th. The all-time record in a year was set in 2002 at 17 days. They will be getting close to that seasonal record next week following the next round of 95°+ major heat. Hillsborough-Duke is close with 10 days reaching 95° so far. Newark has only 5 days due to the frequent cooling bay breezes there this summer with so much onshore flow. Harrison a few miles further away from Newark Bay has 7.

Which is why worst summer ever regarding heat/humidity is probably true.

Like you said it's only July 11th. Plenty more 95+ days next week before a short break.

The highest heat index relative to past Julys is located in NJ so far this summer. FWN is off to their highest heat index July on record while ISP isn’t as impressive. Better dew point  pooling west of NYC and stronger sea breezes on Long Island.

So the person that said there wouldn't be a lot of 90s this summer is looking pretty foolish right now

Virtually every signal headed into this summer pointed to a well above normal season with extended and frequent big heat. To forecast against that was....risky...

I pretty much didn't see any long range forecasts that said less 90s this summer, I think even JB said that it would be warmer.  My guess on a Philly board was 37.  I might have went too low.

I went to sleep last night when I saw the line was weakening, but I did receive .08" here. A shower but not enough to help. Looking forward to hopefully getting much more significant rain tomorrow into Saturday. Very dry here so we really need it. 

In the meantime it's nice to get a little break in the humidity today. Feels more comfortable out there with the dew point down to 65 here.

81/67 here. Not too bad.

Cut off low SW of Bermuda will pushed and ride the expanding ridge, enhancing rainfall Fri/Sat?

These weak lows which develop in the tropics can really deliver some very heavy rains as they come north.

That Atantic ridge is forecast to soar to a >630DM 500MB height and act like a proverbial wall as the boundary has waves of moisture ride up it.  Would think we have some +6 inches jack pots in the MA
