STATEN ISLAND, New York<\/strong> \u2014 The start of July<\/strong> is rolling in with intense humidity<\/strong>, heavy rain<\/strong>, and the ever-familiar New York City stickiness<\/strong>. If you were hoping for a break, this week isn\u2019t bringing one.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Sunday<\/strong> began with sunlight<\/strong>, scattered clouds<\/strong>, and a gentle breeze<\/strong>, pushing temperatures up to 89\u00b0F (32\u00b0C)<\/strong>. But as the sun set, moisture levels crept up<\/strong>, setting the tone for what\u2019s to come.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Heading into Monday<\/strong>, the mugginess ramps up<\/strong> as thunderstorms<\/strong> develop late in the morning and persist into the afternoon<\/strong>. Although the high will technically be 82\u00b0F (28\u00b0C)<\/strong>, the AccuWeather RealFeel\u00ae<\/strong> shoots up to 92\u00b0F (33\u00b0C)<\/strong> \u2014 making for a heavy, tropical-style atmosphere<\/strong> across Manhattan<\/strong>, Brooklyn<\/strong>, and into Staten Island<\/strong>.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Tuesday<\/strong> brings a hotter surge<\/strong>, with the thermometer climbing to 90\u00b0F (32\u00b0C)<\/strong> and a RealFeel of 99\u00b0F (37\u00b0C)<\/strong>. AccuWeather<\/strong> warns of widespread cloud cover<\/strong>, oppressive humidity<\/strong>, and \u201ca couple of showers and a thunderstorm, mainly later; storms can bring flooding downpours and localized damaging wind gusts<\/strong>.\u201d Commuters across Queens<\/strong> and The Bronx<\/strong> should stay alert for possible flash flooding<\/strong> and street-level water accumulation<\/strong>.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n As for Wednesday<\/strong>, the atmosphere doesn\u2019t ease up. Expect scattered thunderstorms<\/strong> popping up \u201cin parts of the area\u201d throughout the day, with some sunlight breaking through the clouds<\/strong>. Temperatures will hover around 87\u00b0F (31\u00b0C)<\/strong>, but the RealFeel hits 100\u00b0F (38\u00b0C)<\/strong>, maintaining the heat stress<\/strong> that\u2019s gripped the city.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n By Thursday<\/strong>, skies will be dominated by overcast conditions<\/strong> and scattered thunderstorms<\/strong>, all wrapped in dense humidity<\/strong>. Roadways and highways<\/strong> may see ponding water<\/strong>, especially in low-lying spots, as the mercury holds at 82\u00b0F (28\u00b0C)<\/strong>, though it\u2019ll feel closer to 88\u00b0F (31\u00b0C)<\/strong>.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Friday<\/strong> brings a slight reprieve<\/strong>, with mixed skies<\/strong> and only a couple of early showers<\/strong>. Interestingly, the RealFeel will be slightly cooler than the actual air temperature<\/strong> \u2014 81\u00b0F (27\u00b0C)<\/strong> versus 82\u00b0F (28\u00b0C)<\/strong> \u2014 offering a small but welcome psychological break from the relentless heat.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n But don\u2019t count on it holding. Saturday<\/strong> and Sunday<\/strong> return to the low 80s\u00b0F (around 27\u00b0C)<\/strong>, but the RealFeel will spike once again<\/strong>, and with it, the humidity and rainfall return<\/strong>. Expect showers<\/strong>, sticky air<\/strong>, and the kind of sweaty discomfort<\/strong> typical of a New York July weekend<\/strong>.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Keep umbrellas handy and prepare for another week of unrelenting moisture and midsummer volatility<\/strong> across the five boroughs<\/strong>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" STATEN ISLAND, New York \u2014 The start of July is rolling in with intense humidity, heavy rain, and the ever-familiar New York City stickiness.
