Sunny Days Ahead: Summer 2024 Forecast For NJ
This summer, energy costs may be very high because the majority of the nation is predicted to experience a hot season. So pull out your shorts, prepare the swimming pool, and check out AccuWeather's U.S. summer prediction.
According to a seasonal forecast released by AccuWeather on Wednesday, summer 2024 could be scorching in New Jersey with high temperatures expected across most of the nation.
Temperatures in the Garden State are expected to be at least three to four degrees above average from June to August, according to AccuWeather. This means that local homeowners and businesses will have to pay more for electricity.There may be twice as many 90-degree days in the vicinity of New York City and Philadelphia as there were last year.
According to the private weather company, the area may see much-needed breaks from the heat in June and July thanks to showers and thunderstorms, but drier conditions may lead to even hotter conditions in August.
The official start of the season is on June 20 with the summer solstice, but several parts of the nation have already experienced temperatures exceeding 90 degrees Fahrenheit, over a month ahead of schedule, according to AccuWeather meteorologists. The first-ever 100-degree day in Phoenix history occurred.In excess of half of the nation is expected to see temperatures between June and August that are roughly 2 degrees above historical averages. That follows 2023, which was the warmest year ever recorded.
Heat may intensify storms, according to AccuWeather. Severe weather in New Jersey is predicted to peak in the north in July and August, and in the south in June to August.
According to AccuWeather senior meteorologist Paul Pastelok, "severe weather events can be frequent in June and part of July." Derechos, or "inland hurricanes," with continuous winds of 58 mph or higher and gusts of up to 100 mph across a region more than 400 miles wide, are one risk factor. In the West, the yearly monsoon season is predicted to begin later than usual. While rain might provide some relief from the summer heat, it also increases the risk of flash floods and lightning that starts wildfires.Between 20 and 25 named storms are expected to affect the Atlantic basin in 2024, according to AccuWeather meteorologists. This includes eight to twelve hurricanes, four to seven significant hurricanes, and four to six direct hits on the United States.
"The Gulf States are at higher risk of flooding due to the expectation of a busy tropical season with one or two threats during the summer months," stated Pastelok. In addition, a robust Atlantic hurricane season was forecast by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration for 2024.
