My friends and family in the Newark and North Jersey region get ready for some major heat as temperatures are set to soar in the coming days.
According to the National Weather Service, today, we can still enjoy a comfortable, cool morning with sunny skies and a high near 89 degrees. A south wind of 3 to 8 mph will provide a gentle breeze to keep us comfortable.
However, NWS forecasters said a heating trend is coming, bringing scorching temperatures that could lead to a heat advisory by Thursday.
Brace yourselves for a three-day heatwave with temperatures soaring above 90 degrees.
With the humidity at 90%, the heat will feel even more intense, so it's essential to take necessary precautions to stay safe and cool during this hot spell. As the South wind blows at five mph, it may bring some relief, but it's crucial to seek shade and stay indoors whenever possible to avoid overheating and potential heat-related illnesses.
RLS Media wants to remind residents to never leave pets or children unattended in vehicles, as the interior temperatures can quickly become dangerously hot.
The barometer reading at 30.06 inches indicates that the weather will remain stable, but the increasing heat can still take its toll.
Remember, the heat can be unforgiving, but with proper precautions, we can navigate through it and make the most of the sunny days ahead.
