Get ready for a Saturday scorcher as temperatures could top 100 in Central Park.
The heat could feel as strong as 106 degrees in the sun and heat advisories and warnings have been posted for the tri-state.
The all-time record high for Central Park is 106 degrees. It might not get that high in the park, but it is expected near if not top 100 degrees. Temperatures in New Jersey are expected to surpass the 100-degree mark.
The power grid will take a heavy hit tomorrow and beaches will be likely packed as sea breezes will provide some measure of relief. People should drink plenty of water, avoid strenuous activity and limit their time outside between 10 a.m. and 6 p.m.
Strong to severe thunderstorms forecast for Saturday evening will bring relief to the heat, ending the heat wave for a few days.
Sunday’s high is forecast to be 88 degrees. Temperatures in the 80s are forecast from Monday to Thursday.

In the “yeshiva world” we refer to the seventh day as “Shabbos”.
borninthebronx: In my world, we refer to tonite as “Leil Shabbos” or simply “Shabbos nite” and not as “Friday nite”.
However, since tomorrow nite, I can perform work, it is not “Shabbos nite” but “Saturday nite”.
#1 – I am starting to think twice as to which crowd they are catering to.
Why are you complaining about the choice of words written by NBC?
YWN only checks articles for foul language or content, most of the time, they don’t change the wording.
#2, you actually are wrong. The title of the article reads ” NYC: Saturday Scorcher Could Break Records”
It should read Shabbos, since this is a frum web site. Secondly, Motzei Shabbos should be called by its name and not Saturday night.
