Heat Advisory Issued for Tri-State Area as Humidity Reaches Oppressive Levels
A heat advisory has been issued for the tri-state area, including New York City, as temperatures are expected to reach the upper 80s to near 90 degrees, with heat indices approaching 100 degrees. The advisory is in effect from Thursday through Friday, with the possibility of extension into the following week. The high humidity, with dew points in the mid-70s, is contributing to the oppressive conditions. Alongside the heat, there is a risk of severe weather, including thunderstorms and potential flash flooding, particularly west of New York City.
