This Thursday is shaping up to be a typically summery day in New York City. From the early hours of the morning, the sky has been clear, with temperatures rising rapidly from 23 °C (73 °F) to reach 32 °C (89 °F) near midday. The sun will dominate for most of the day, although a change in atmospheric conditions is expected from 3:00 p.m. onwards, when isolated thunderstorms and an increase in cloud cover could be recorded. Temperatures could reach up to 34 °C (93 °F) in the areas most exposed to the heat. For the night, a slight decrease in temperature is expected, around 25 °C (77 °F), with partly cloudy skies and a lower chance of rain.

Recommendations:
Given the high temperatures, residents and visitors are advised to stay hydrated, avoid prolonged sun exposure between 10:00 a.m. and 2:00 p.m., wear light clothing, and protect themselves with hats and sunscreen. In addition, caution is suggested during the afternoon due to the possibility of thunderstorms.

The forecast remains under watch for any changes in conditions, especially due to the proximity of the July 4th holiday, when thousands of people travel and outdoor events are held.
