Sunny Start, Cloudy End
Pleasant weather for the first half of the week with sunny skies and warm temperatures
Last week, the Northeast experienced several days of blazing heat that broke records across New Jersey.
During the past heat wave, Newark and Atlantic City both reported temperatures of 102 degrees, which beat their records of 99 degrees and 98 degrees, respectively,Β in 2008.
This week, we are in for much more pleasant weather. The workweek will begin with mostly sunny skies and a few passing clouds. The temperature will remain in the mid-70s. This trend will continue through the first half of the week but the temperature will rise each day.
