Summary
All New Jersey counties were placed under an extreme heat watch for July 1-4 as the Tri-State area heads toward what could be its first heat wave of the season.
Midweek temperatures are forecast to intensify from 90s inland by Tuesday to low 90s Wednesday, with Thursday expected to be the hottest day at mid-90s or higher.
New York City could officially log a heat wave by Friday if it records the required run of days at 90 degrees or above; isolated afternoon storms remain possible on some days.
Gov. Kathy Hochul warned that heat risks build cumulatively over several days and urged residents to hydrate, check on neighbors, limit outdoor time for children and pets, and conserve energy.
