A heat wave brought unseasonably hot weather to most of New Jersey on July 8th through the 10th. The highest temperatures were on the 9th and 10th and were mostly in the mid to upper 90s. The combination of the heat and humidity produced afternoon heat indices of around 100F both afternoons. Cloudiness that preceded a cold front on the 11th prevented most places from reaching 90F again. Portable air condition sales jumped about 50 percent.
Highest temperatures included 100 degrees in Millville (Cumberland County), 98 degrees in Hightstown (Mercer County), the Atlantic City International Airport and Wrightstown and Lumberton (Burlington County), 97 degrees in Pennsauken and Blue Anchor (Camden County), Hillsborough (Somerset County), Cream Ridge (Monmouth County), Woodstown (Salem County) and Hammonton (Atlantic County), 96 degrees in Phillipsburg (Warren County), Boonton and Chatham (Morris County), Flemington (Hunterdon County), Middlesex (Middlesex County), Clayton (Gloucester County), Woodbine (Cape May County) and West Deptford (Gloucester County), 95 degrees in Sussex (Sussex County) and Point Pleasant (Ocean County), 94 degrees in New Brunswick (Middlesex County), Hackettstown (Warren County) and Kingwood (Hunterdon County) and 93 degrees in Wildwood (Cape May County).
