New Jersey Braces for Extreme Heat and Storms Amid Tuesday Advisories
New Jersey residents are urged to prepare for a volatile weather day on Tuesday, July 8th, as a heat advisory takes effect across several counties and further storm chances loom. Forecasters predict another day of high temperatures and humidity, with the potential for damaging wind gusts being the primary threat.
A heat advisory is in effect from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. for Burlington, Camden, Gloucester, and Ocean counties, where the heat index is expected to soar as high as 103 degrees Fahrenheit. The rest of the state will also experience significant heat, with widespread highs in the upper 80s to mid-90s and a heat index reaching up to 101 degrees.
Beyond the heat, there’s a continued risk of thunderstorms throughout Tuesday, with damaging wind gusts identified as the main concern. This follows a Monday that saw significant rainfall and flash flood threats from the remnants of Tropical Storm Chantal. Residents should stay informed about local weather alerts and take precautions against both extreme heat and severe storms.
