The extreme heat triggers warnings for the NJ and New York region today. The card shows where it will be the warmest.

The extreme heat causes several weather opinions for the New York region on Friday. A serious thunderstorm watch was made for the entire three -states area at 9 p.m.

Temperatures skyrocketing this afternoon, with summits in the 90s. However, it is only half of the story, because dew points flirt with 70 degrees. That said, the heat index is 100 to 105 degrees, on average, with parts of the New Jersey feeling like 105-110 degrees.

It is also a first alert weather day because we face high temperatures and humidity.

Extreme heat warning for the north and the center of the NJ

An extreme heat warning, formerly known as excessive heat warningwas published for some parts of New Jersey from 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. Friday. These areas will experience temperatures that resemble 105 to 110 degrees.

Excessive heat warnings are the highest form of heat alerts. They are published 24 hours in front of heat indices of at least 105 degrees or more for at least two consecutive hours.

Heat council for the three states zone

The rest of the three states area is under thermal opinion from 10 a.m. to 9 p.m., with temperatures resembling sensations between 95 and 105 degrees.

Time is expected to cool off with summits in the 80s this weekend. It seems that Saturday is the best half, then the thunderstorms will be back in the mixture on Sunday.

NY air quality alert

There is also a Air quality alert For a large part of the region from 11 a.m. to 11 p.m. Friday due to ozone at ground level.

An air quality alert is issued when the air quality index, or AQI, is greater than 100. Stuggur air can trap pollution and create high ozone levels, aggravating respiratory problems.

An AQI in the 101-150 range is considered “unhealthy for sensitive groups”, including children, older adults, pregnant women and people with heart or pulmonary diseases.

Thunderstorm

Meanwhile, we monitor the strong thunderstorms that grow just in time for the evening rush.

We should spend the first half of the afternoon almost unscathed. In the journey, however, Hit and Miss Storms will move to our region, which will be able to produce showers and even winds damaged locally.

Fortunately, things will end after sunset, so the rest of your evening should be fine.

Energy saving advice

Con Edison came out with these tips so that New Yorkers keep electricity and avoid drops in drops while the city deals with extreme heat.

• Limit the use of air conditioners by increasing the set point to a comfortable temperature, not necessarily the coolest.
• Daisse the lights or turn them off if you don’t need it, especially in the unoccupied rooms.
• Non -essential electronics disconnect. Even a coffee maker draws energy when it is connected and not used.
• Avoid doing the laundry and running the dishwasher because these devices cause a lot of power.
