NYC to get hit with first heat wave of the summer — with some temps breaking records across the Northeast
NY Post
The official start of summer is delivering New York City its first heat wave of the season.
The Big Apple is bracing for temperatures expected to rise through the work week and hit the 90s by Thursday — the first day of summer — and Friday.
It marks the first sweltering stretch since September.
It will be humid, too, with “real feel” readings flirting with 100 degrees in the city, thanks to the urban heat effect, as concrete and reflective surfaces sizzle, according to Fox Weather meteorologist Cody Braud.
While New York might not officially reach 100 or break any records, nearby areas likely will, Braud told The Post.
“We’re going to be in the thick of it — but may escape the worst of it,” Braud said.
