107°F. That is the highest air temperature @nysmesonet's NYC Micronet recorded anywhere in the city this afternoon, logged in the Bronx, with stations across all five boroughs reading in the triple digits.
NYCEM is working with our partners at @NWSNewYorkNY and @NYSWRCC to track dangerous heat and get you guidance to keep you and your family safe.
Stay cool and let's look out for each other and the grid. As people head home and energy demand peaks, turn on your AC but set it to 78°F and let your home cool down gradually instead of blasting it cold. Close your blinds and run fans to circulate air.
When we each ease off a little, we lower the strain that causes outages, so you keep your power on, your neighbors keep theirs, and our hospitals and critical facilities stay running through the heat. Check on those who live alone.
Small choices, made by all of us, get the whole city through this.
🇺🇸 BREAKING: NYC Mayor Mamdani just said what America refuses to admit.
"The wealth of a median white household in the city is more than $200,000, while that of a black household is less than $20,000."
Ten times the wealth. Same city. Same century. Same flag.
That's not a gap. That's a design.
Spread this. America needs to stop pretending.
The Kennedy Center was named after my uncle, President John F Kennedy. It was named in his honor. He was a man who was interested in the arts, interested in culture, interested in education, language, history. He brought the arts into the White House, and he and my Aunt Jackie amplified the arts, celebrated the arts, stood up for the arts and artists.
It is beyond comprehension that this sitting president has sought to rename this great memorial dedicated to President Kennedy. It is beyond wild that he would think adding his name in front of President Kennedy’s name is acceptable. It is not.
Next thing perhaps he will want to rename JFK Airport, rename the Lincoln Memorial, the Trump Lincoln Memorial. The Trump Jefferson Memorial. The Trump Smithsonian. The list goes on.
Can we not see what is happening here? C’mon, my fellow Americans! Wake up! This is not dignified. This is not funny. This is way beneath the stature of the job. It’s downright weird. It’s obsessive in a weird way. Just when you think somone can’t stoop any lower, down they go…
[Northern Lights]: Due to the ongoing geomagnetic storm, many are seeing the northern lights across the U.S. There has been some brief clearing across portions of the area, enough that we were able to capture the northern lights here on eastern Long Island. Have you seen it?
@CleancultTeam love your products. they are amazing and the best. But I just got a new bottle of grapefruit spray and the sprayer does not work. What do I do? I'm so sad!
@BrianLehrer But the mayor cut after school funding just at the beginning of the school year which led parents and non-profits into tail spins and last summer for summer rising too! So isn't this a day late and dollar short? Does he think we have short memories?

The claim of payment delays is notable because it is one of the first concrete harms state education officials have linked to President Donald Trump’s effort to eliminate the federal Education Department. https://t.co/WYloucAK7a
