Monday Overview: Hot again, strong storms possible late
The heat is back on, and it’s showing no signs of letting up. After a hot day on Sunday, Monday looks likely to be several degrees warmer throughout much of the area. High temperatures will approach the middle and upper 90’s, especially away from the area coasts. Heat index values in the upper 90’s, occasionally near 100, will make it feel oppressive at times.
In addition to the heat, a threat of strong to severe thunderstorms exists during the late afternoon and evening. This will be especially true across western portions of the forecast area. The Storm Prediction Center has placed western parts of New Jersey and Southeast New York in a Slight Risk for severe thunderstorms on Monday afternoon and evening. Some highlights below:
- Temperatures in the mid 90’s are expected in many parts of the area on Monday
- Strong and severe storms are possible during the late afternoon and evening
- The heat will take a brief respite mid-week, but return with a vengeance late week when highs may approach 100 degrees.
