Springtime sizzle! NYC poised to hit 90 degrees, breaking heat record set in 70s
Temperatures are expected to climb higher than the previous record for the day — set in 1977 at 88 degrees — as New Yorkers bust out shorts and sunscreen weeks ahead of schedule, said Fox Weather meteorologist Marissa Lautenbacher.
“You can leave your jacket at home,” said Lautenbacher. “There’s really not a cloud in the sky and it’s likely we’ll get up to that record territory.”, as the mercury soared roughly 25 degrees above average for the time of year. “Even though it is April, if you’re going to be outside for an extended period of time, wear that sunscreen,” she said. The unseasonably summery weather is forecast to last through Friday, which will see a sunny high of 86 before temps cool to 64 with scattered showers Saturday.Temperatures are poised to soar to 90 degrees in New York City Thursday.Temperatures rarely reach the 90s until late May in New York City, so this is “significantly earlier than average,” Lautenbacher said.
