As hot as it'll get here, the real record heat is further north. 

It's crazy that this will be the last comfortable day until who knows when. 

When nuclear winter begins...

73/59 and the hotter period commences as the ridge builds in. Warmer spots start a heatwave today, most others tomorrow.   Easterly flow around center of the strong/record ridge keeps the area on the fringe of the record heat Tue/Wed with most highs low to mid 90s coastal/metro areas but increased DT's keep it feeling oppressive. Flow comes around more SW by Thu and 850 MB temps 19c - 22C should allow near record or record challenging highs mid upper 90s in the warmer spots. First shot at showers/storms as weak front nudges down the ridge Fri night (6/21) and Sat (6/22), but still hot.  GFS has closed low near GA/SC which could be of interest if stuck or caught undercutting ridge late week. Stronger push of heat Sun (6/23) and Mon (6/24) ahead of the stronger front and trough push more high heat and humidity.   Brief reprieve from the heat before ridging builds back later in the month.

Beach will be the place to be this week. Sea breeze should keep us in the 70s/80s

It’ll be “what heat” down there until late week and only if we start getting westerly flow. In fact the beaches will be windy in the afternoons because of the Ambrose Jet. The headlines from this until Thu are north of us.

Yeah, the HRRR has the strongest Ambrose Jet of the season today with 30-40 mph gusts at the South Shore beaches.

Already a nice breeze up here on the N Shore.  Walked back from dropping car off at car wash & gusting to 15mph already.  Shoreline of S Shore has to be 20+ mph already.

The beaches might not be great to be at in fact until late week unless you like your stuff getting blown away. Not great for swimming either due to rip currents. If there’s a heat wave for NYC and East at all the chance would be Thu-Sat. With a strong S wind the north shore might not even get that hot.

81 and breezy already. Will be a great week on the island, only a few hot days. Marine temps should jump up this week so our beach season can take off.

Surprisingly calm currently at jones beach. Maybe 10 knots. Ocean is a gorgeous tropical turquoise currently. Water has warmed up considerably since the wind shifted onshore again.
