HEAT ALERT: Hazy, hot and humid with feels-like temps at 95+ degrees in the Bronx; Beryl remnants arrive midweek

"

Heat indices: 95-100 degrees. If we hit 90 degrees today, it will make it the fourth consecutive day of 90 degrees temperatures. We're already in a heat wave. An air quality alert will likely be issued today due to the stifling air mass. An AIR QUALITY ALERT remains in effect through 11PM tonight, with a possibility of another alert being issued tomorrow. A HEAT ADVISORY is in effect through 8PM on Wednesday. TROPICS: Beryl made landfall near Matagorda, Texas as a Category 1, killing at least 2 Americans. It is now a weakening tropical storm and will become simply remnants by tomorrow, but it continues to bring a flash flood threat across a dozen-plus states from Texas into the Great Lakes. While the center of Beryl's remnants will track WELL AWAY from us in Bronx/Brooklyn, a lingering front packing lots of moisture will spark the storm chances Wednesday night through at least Thursday night. I am most worried about the risk of flooding downpours on Thursday. TONIGHT: Warm and humid. Lows near 77. Patchy fog possible late, mainly along the water. TOMORROW: Mostly sunny, hot and humid. Highs near 91, feeling like 95-100. Pop-up storm or two possible from late afternoon through sunset, better chance staying west of us. Lows down to 76 with an isolated nighttime downpour. WEDNESDAY: Hot and very humid, with highs close to 90, feeling like 95+. Late-day t-storms are possible, more likely after midnight, with the main threat being flooding downpours. Lows near 75. THURSDAY – POSSIBLE STORM WATCH: Very humid with afternoon & evening downpours/t-storms. Highs around 85. Lows near 75. FRIDAY: Similar story, but not as widespread with t-storms/downpours possible. Details remain limited, all depending on the exact track and speed of Beryl's remnants. Highs near 85. Lows near 74. NEXT WEEKEND: Leftover t-showers possible Saturday but back to the heat by Sunday with 90s feeling like near-100. Lows in the upper 70s. "
