After a few days of cooler weather, the heat and humidity are set to return, prompting city officials to declare a heat advisory for Friday. The advisory runs from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. as daytime temperatures are expected to reach the mid-90s.

With a heat advisory in effect for much of the day, New Yorkers should consider limiting any strenuous activity outside. The National Weather Service (NWS) warns that these conditions lead to an increased risk of heat-related illnesses, like heat stroke.

It is a hot one today as temperatures find their way into the 90s this afternoon. There is a Heat Advisory for most of the region because of the temperatures getting over 90 degrees in combination with all the humidity.
