Red Alert Day: Hazy, hot and humid with heat advisories in effect

Happy Sunday! The heat and humidity roll on with heat advisories now in effect for most of the area through at least Monday.

Expect another hazy, hot, and humid afternoon with a mix of sun and clouds. Temps will again climb into the upper 80s and low 90s, feeling more like the upper 90s. Like yesterday, there’s an isolated risk of a pop-up shower or storm, mainly to the north and west.

If you’re headed to the beach, be mindful of a high rip current risk for Long Island today.

After another very muggy night, let’s do it again tomorrow! Heat indices Monday will be around 100. Once again, we have to leave in the risk of a spotty pop-up in the afternoon. The bigger story, by far, is the heat as any storms look to be few and far between.

It remains oppressive right through midweek before we finally see relief by week’s end behind a couple of cold fronts. As of now, Friday is looking fantastic with bright skies, low humidity, and temps in the low 80s. It’ll feel refreshing!

For now it’s hot, hot, hot. Enjoy the rest of your weekend and stay cool!
