City breaks 81-year-old record with 90-degree temps

Record heat has hit the Big Apple.

Actually, it was more like the baked apple today as temperatures soared to 90 degrees in Central Park, breaking the previous record for the day set in 1929.

The old record temperature of 89 degrees was shattered at 1 p.m., according to the National Weather Service.

Newark also reached record temperatures, where it also hit 90 degrees this afternoon — breaking the previous record of 85.

The record hit wil subside after today.

Tonight is expected to be cloudy with a low in the 60s across the city, according to AccuWeather.com.

The sun will give way to some clouds on Thursday as temperatures reach a high of 81 before a thunder shower in the evening.
