While areas along the coast will see slightly cooler temperatures, the heat will be on further inland across the region.

Areas in the Ohio Valley and Great Lakes will start to cool down on Sunday, but many cities along the East Coast will see another day of temperatures in the 90s.

Buffalo, New York, will only see a high temperature of around 65 degrees on Sunday, but to the south in Pittsburgh, temperatures will get very close to 80 degrees.

Further east, temperatures will be even warmer.

Washington, D.C., will see a high temperature of 90 degrees, with New York City also getting extremely close to that temperature.

And as we head into New England, temperatures higher than 90 degrees are expected in Connecticut, Rhode Island and even Boston, which is likely to get to around 91 degrees Sunday.

KEEPING YOUR FURRY FRIEND SAFE AND HEALTHY AS TEMPERATURES RISE

Heat Advisories are now in effect from Philadelphia into Boston and parts of northern New England as the temperatures rise for one more day.

The majority of those alerts are in effect in Connecticut, Rhode Island and Massachusetts as the area sees temperatures at or above 90 degrees.

To give an idea of how rare it is to have Heat Advisories issued in May in the Northeast, the only NWS office in the region to issue this alert in May since 2006 is Philadelphia/Mt. Holly and that was more than 10 years ago.

NWS offices in Boston, New York City, Albany, New York, and Burlington, Vermont, have no history of the issuance of Heat Advisories in May since at least 2006 – until now.

HOW TO TELL THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN HEAT EXHAUSTION AND HEAT STROKE

Cities along the East Coast will be much cooler than those further inland.

Cooler temperatures will be confined to the immediate coast due to a sea breeze off the chilly Atlantic, but the farther inland you go, the warmer the temperatures will become.

This heat will be short-lived. A cold front bringing severe thunderstorms to parts of the eastern U.S. on Sunday will drop temperatures back down to seasonable averages by early next week.

Temperatures in the Northeast and New England will be much more seasonable by Monday.
