Heat Advisory

The New York City Emergency Management Department (NYCEM) urges New Yorkers to take precautions during the hot weather expected on Thursday, June 11 and Friday, June 12.

The National Weather Service has issued a Heat Advisory in effect both Thursday and Friday from 12:00PM to 8:00PM. Temperatures are expected to reach the low 90s on Thursday and Friday, with heat indices up to 100°F on Thursday, June 11, and heat indices above 90°F on Friday, June 12.

Thunderstorms are likely both Thursday and Friday evening. There is a potential for isolated to scattered thunderstorms with localized heavy downpours mainly during the evening commute on Wednesday. There is a slight chance that some thunderstorms may be severe. Thunderstorms can also bring local winds gusts between 30-40 mph.

During periods of extreme heat, New Yorkers and visitors should use air conditioning to stay cool, go to a place that has air conditioning if it is not available at home, stay hydrated by drinking water at regular intervals, and limit strenuous activity, especially during the hottest parts of the day. If you don’t have air conditioning, find a cool place to visit nearby, like a friend’s place, a mall, a museum, a coffee shop, a library, or an NYC Cooling Center.

More than 600 Cooling Centers will be open across the five boroughs find your nearest cool option or Cooling Center by visiting NYC.gov/beattheheat, or by calling 311.
