| episode_narrative | The first and for many locations the only heat wave of the season occurred during the end of May. For many locations this heat wave contained the hottest temperatures of the year. Even along the shore, west winds on the 20th brought record breaking temperatures. No heat related deaths or injuries were reported. The excessive heat caused the Pennsylvania New Jersey Interconnection Association (PMJ) of 10 Mid Atlantic Utilities to institute a 5 percent cutback in power usage. Demand was about 33 percent above normal. The hottest day was the 20th when records were either tied or set at both the Atlantic City and Philadelphia International Airports and the marina in Atlantic City. Hottest temperatures during this heat wave included 100F at New Lisbon, 98F at Mount Holly and Hazlet, 97F at Chatham and Somerdale, 96F at the Atlantic City International Airport, 95F at Sussex, 94F at Boonton and the Philadelphia International Airport and 93F at the Marina in Atlantic City. |
