However, feels-like temperatures will be much higher than that.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \">On Thursday, it will be 96F and on Friday 102F, according to the latest weather maps. If you head out to enjoy a picnic or spend time by the shore, you should remember to apply sunscreen regularly, because of the high UV index.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/0_NYC-weather.jpg\" alt=\"NYC weather map\" loading=\"lazy\"  \/>Warmer conditions are on the way(Image: NBC New York)New York City facing high levels of humidity<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \">As NYC experiences extreme and dangerous heat on Friday, humidity will reach high levels, making it difficult for our bodies to regulate temperature and stay cool. Usually, then when it is hot, we sweat so we can cool down &#8211; as when the sweat evaporates, that process pulls heat from our skin, lowering our body temperature.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \">However, when it is as hot as we expect it to be on Friday, the air is nearly saturated with moisture. This means the sweat can&#8217;t evaporate properly and our body temperature rises, with the risk of reaching dangerous levels.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \">With the heat, you should remember to stay hydrated, wear lightweight and light-colored clothing, and avoid strenuous outdoor activities. It is also important to check-up on more vulnerable people such as seniors and children, as well as pets.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/1753171691_501_0_NYC-weather.jpg\" alt=\"New York weather map\" loading=\"lazy\"  \/>Temperatures are set to reach 95F on Friday(Image: NBC New York)What&#8217;s the weather like by the beach?<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \">Over the next few days, areas by the beach, including Long Island, Jersey Shore and Connecticut, will have fine and warm conditions, with no rain in sight.
