It is going to be a scorcher today

Temps in the mid-90's and heat indexes in the middle 100's:

The National Weather Service has issued excessive heat warnings starting at noon for Mercer, Gloucester, Camden and northwestern Burlington counties. The maximum heat index forecast for those areas is between 102 and 107 degrees.

As always when the temperature gets this high. limit outside exposure, drink lots of water, check on the elderly and PETS and make sure they are holding up OK. Bring a water bottle with you if you're walking a dog this afternoon. when you see them start to foam a little at the mouth it's time for water. If you're heading to the JC Eats outside Jersey City Hall today stay hydrated. Alcohol is NOT a good idea as the beverage of choice on hot days like this.
