The probability of a tornado on Friday small. But heavy rains, strong winds and flooding is very likely. A day in the Big Apple will be +27°C, but due to the high humidity the feeling will be higher. All day Saturday, July 4, also rain is expected.

The cyclone will leave new York on Sunday. Come to town heat to +32°C and will last until next Tuesday, July 14.

However, new Yorkers used to such weather extremes. Throughout July on weekdays rains, leaving just the end of the week.
