A terrifying heat dome will roast the Big Apple this week, with temperatures soaring into the high 90s and suffocating humidity making it feel like 110 degrees, as revelers gear up for the July 4 weekend.<\/p>\n

New York City is expected to suffer four straight days of sweltering 90-degree heat, with highs nearing 100 from Wednesday through Saturday \u2014 and real-feel temperatures hovering between 105 to 110 degrees in the afternoons as scorching conditions and humidity surges, according to AccuWeather.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s going to be a very intense heatwave,\u201d Dan DePodwin, Accuweather\u2019s vice president of forecast operations, told The Post Monday.<\/p>\n

\u201cObviously, it\u2019s summer and it\u2019s hot, but this is a pretty notable heatwave because it coincides with the Fourth of July holiday and everybody being out and about. It\u2019s important to stay well hydrated if you have to be outside, but it\u2019s preferable to be inside.\u201d<\/p>\n

Temperatures will stubbornly sit between 93 to 98 degrees over the four-day heat spell, with readings potentially hitting or topping 100 degrees in Central Park on Thursday and Friday.<\/p>\n

The last time Central Park hit 100 degrees was on July 18, 2012, DePodwin said.<\/p>\n

Possible thunderstorms could strike Friday afternoon and carry into Independence Day festivities on Saturday, he added \u2014 warning revelers to have backup plans and brace for delays.<\/p>\n

Temperatures will only drop to around 80 degrees overnight during the heat dome stretch.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf the low temperature is at least 80 degrees for three nights in a row, that would tie the record for most days in a row with lows equal to or greater than 80 degrees,\u201d DePodwin said.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis would tie the streak that we saw last year (2025) from June 23-25 and also ties the 3-day streaks from July 2013, July 1908 and August 1896.\u201d<\/p>\n

The area won\u2019t cool down until early next week, with daytime temperatures finally dipping to the mid-80s on Sunday.<\/p>\n

DePodwin urged people to stay hydrated, check on neighbors \u2014 especially seniors, vulnerable individuals, and those without air conditioning \u2014 and stay inside when possible.<\/p>\n

The National Weather Service has issued an extreme heat watch from noon Wednesday through 9 p.m. Friday in New York City, the Lower Hudson Valley, Long Island, northern New Jersey and western Connecticut.<\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n

New York Gov. Kathy Hochul also issued a warning to people to stay safe in the heat this week.<\/p>\n

\u201cHeat impacts are cumulative, which means the health risks increase day after day,\u201d Hochul said Sunday.<\/p>\n

\u201cPeople with children, it\u2019s not the best time to take a baby for walking the stroller. If you\u2019re walking the dog, try to minimize the outdoor time, because it can be very dangerous. Our top priority is keeping New Yorkers safe and taking every step to prepare for this event.\u201d<\/p>\n
