| Episode narrativeepisode_narrative | Unseasonably hot weather that started on the 20th in New Jersey, persisted into the 22nd across the southern third of the state resulted in high temperatures in the mid to upper 90s and afternoon heat indices of around 100 degrees. For most locations within the state, the 21st was the hottest day in the stretch. The heat caused some telephone pole and power line fires in Hopatcong (Sussex County) on the 21st. New Jersey utilities reported scattered outages due to the heat. Cooling centers were opened in Middlesex County in Edison, Perth Amboy and New Brunswick and in Franklin Township in Somerset County. The excessive water usage within the city of Camden (Camden County) caused a drop in water pressure. The city advised residents to boil the water before drinking it. The drop in water pressure caused the Camden River Sharks to postpone their scheduled baseball game the evening of the 21st. ||Highest temperatures included 99 degrees in Lumberton (Burlington County) and Toms River (Ocean County), 98 degrees in Sicklerville (Camden County), 97 degrees in Belmar (Monmouth County), Hillsborough (Somerset County), Point Pleasant (Ocean County), Clayton (Gloucester County) and Millville (Cumberland County), 96 degrees in Somerville (Somerset County), the Atlantic City International Airport, Cream Ridge (Monmouth County) and Woodbine (Cape May County), 95 degrees in Trenton (Mercer County), Woodstown (Salem County), Cape May County Courthouse (Cape May County), Andover (Sussex County), Sussex (Sussex County) and 94 degrees in Hope (Warren County), Parsippany (Morris County) and Kingwood (Hunterdon County). The hot spell ended when a cold front moved through New Jersey overnight on the 22nd. |
