2nd Heat Wave Of The Summer Targets NYC This Week: What To Know

NEW YORK CITY — New Yorkers will be facing scorching temperatures for the next three days as the city will be under another heat wave beginning Monday.

Temperatures are expected to reach the mid-90s Monday but will feel hotter due to humidity, with real-feel temperatures reaching over 100 degrees, forecasters said.

A heat advisory is expected to go into effect at 11 a.m. and will last through 8 p.m. Wednesday.

Temperatures could feel even hotter on Tuesday and Wednesday, with heat index values climbing into the upper 90s to low 100s.

The lows at night will be in the high 70s, and may not offer much relief with high humidity persisting.

It is important to take precautions during the day on Monday, especially for those with chronic health problems and those who are working outside, National Weather Service forecasters said.

Homes without air conditioning can be much hotter than outdoor temperatures, so use air conditioning to stay cool at home or go to a place with air conditioning, like one of the city's Cooling Centers, officials said.
