Extreme Heat Watch issued June 28 at 3:25PM EDT until July 3 at 9:00PM EDT by NWS Upton NY

Expires: Sun June 28, 2026, 11:30 PM

* WHAT...Dangerously hot conditions with heat index values up to 105 possible. * WHERE...Bronx, Kings (Brooklyn), New York (Manhattan), Northern Queens, Richmond (Staten Island), and Southern Queens Counties. * WHEN...From Wednesday afternoon through Friday evening. * IMPACTS...Extreme heat and humidity will significantly increase the potential for heat related illnesses, particularly for those working or participating in outdoor activities.

New York City residents should call 3 1 1 to obtain 'Beat the Heat' safety tips. Seniors and those with chronic health problems or mental health conditions are at an increased risk. Homes without air conditioning can be much hotter than outdoor temperatures. Use air conditioning to stay cool at home or go to a place that has air conditioning. If you don't have home air conditioning, continue to seek out cool spaces each day as long as it remains hot, and for a few days after if your home is still hot. Check on vulnerable friends, family members and neighbors. To reduce risk during outdoor work, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration recommends scheduling frequent rest breaks in shaded or air conditioned environments. Anyone overcome by heat should be moved to a cool and shaded location. Heat stroke is an emergency! In cases of heat stroke call 9 1 1.

Extreme Heat Watch issued June 28 at 2:11PM EDT until July 4 at 8:00PM EDT by NWS Mount Holly NJ

Effective: Sun June 28, 2026, 2:11 PM
Expires: Mon June 29, 2026, 6:00 AM

* WHAT...Dangerously hot conditions with heat index values up to 110 degrees possible during the daytime hours. * WHERE...Eastern Monmouth, Western Monmouth, Middlesex, Somerset, Ocean, and Southeastern Burlington Counties. * WHEN...From Wednesday afternoon through Saturday evening. * IMPACTS...Heat related illnesses increase significantly during extreme heat and high humidity events. * ADDITIONAL DETAILS...Very warm low temperatures in the mid 70s to low 80s at night will not offer any relief from the heat. This combined with multiple days of near record breaking temperatures will exacerbate the impacts from the heat and humidity.

Drink plenty of fluids, stay in an air-conditioned room, stay out of the sun, and check up on relatives and neighbors. Do not leave young children and pets in unattended vehicles. Car interiors will reach lethal temperatures in a matter of minutes.

The times presented here are based upon the solunar theory, which is the idea that the movements of fish and other animals are affected by the location of the sun and moon. The major periods are believed to be the times of the greatest animal activity and occur when the moon is directly overhead or underfoot (lunar transits). The minor periods also see increased activity and occur when the moon is rising or setting. The strongest activity occurs during full or new moons, and the weakest during quarter or three quarter moons. This is indicated by the Action Rating.
