heat wave

New Jersey faces at least two more days of excessive heat and humidity as this week's heat wave comes to an end over the weekend as the heat index rose well above 100 around the state.

June was the wettest on record in New Jersey and while the rain has let up, intense heat and humidity has taken its place, which has resulted in some additional challenges for farmers across the state.

A Severe Thunderstorm Warning has been issued for parts of Ocean County as New Jersey's heat wave continues.

It's rare someone will consider a heat wave a "good thing," but many shore merchants are happy to see the thermometer get up there.

New Jersey's oppressive heat wave continues with another day of sweat and swelter along with unhealthy air.

Staying indoors is a good way to beat the heat, but if you're blasting the air conditioning around the clock, you'll end up sweating over this month's electric bill.

Yes maybe weird, but they possibly work...and right now, let's face it, we need something to cool us down.

With a heat wave expected to bring humid and oppressive conditions for the remainder of the week, residents are bracing themselves for more sweltering days.
