The whole city is overheating, thanks to the record-breaking heatwave sweeping America, and the longest heatwave to hit NYC since 2013 when a seven-day heatwave left us all shvitzing.
RECOMMENDED: Fun ways to stay cool during NYC’s heat wave this week
The weather has truly been wild and undesirable, we’re looking at you random hail and hellstorms. And let’s not forget that on the hottest day of the year Rockaway beach was closed for sharks! But New Yorkers are anything but subtle in our complaints, observations and even helpful advice (we’re nice!).
Here are some of the best reactions to this supposedly good time called summer.
It’s so hot in NYC I’m entirely past caring whether I’m experiencing rain or air conditioner drips

Because it’s so hot today in NYC our “pubic health leaders” are telling us to avoid outdoor activities, while telling us avoid indoor activities due to Covid…

meet me at the margaritaville in times square, bring whatever you need to survive for several weeks, be prepared to pray to jimmy buffet and silently meditate while “it’s 5 o’clock somewhere” blasts

Friday’s Weather Rating: 3/10

Sunny, a bit less humid, no storms. Still feeling like the mid to upper 90’s by afternoon. An improvement from yesterday, but still not great. The vibes are okay.
Just watched the prettiest storm roll over the Hudson, across Washington Heights, and into the Bronx, all from my bench in lab! pic.twitter.com/U8sD74miTG
