New Yorkers may be in for a sweltering few days as a heat advisory is set to hit the city for the second half of the week. Temperatures are expected to soar, with highs reaching the mid-90s and heat indexes potentially topping 100 degrees. The heat advisory, which is typically issued when temperatures are expected to reach 95 degrees or higher, is likely to affect millions of residents and commuters, particularly in areas with limited shade or access to cooling resources. As the city's heat island effect kicks in, residents are advised to take precautions and stay hydrated to avoid heat-related illnesses.
