Along with the return of highs ranging from the upper 80s to the lower 90s, humidity levels will increase and haze will build.
RealFeel Temperatures will rebound into the middle 90s to near 100 in many urban locations during the first part of next week.
According to AccuWeather Senior Meteorologist Dave Dombek, "With normal temperatures trending downward quickly this time of the year, next week's heat may be more extreme when compared to this week."
For example, in New York City, the average high on Sept. 2 is 80, but next Wednesday, Sept. 9, the average high is in the middle 70s.
According to AccuWeather Meteorologist Ben Noll, "Some locations could challenge record highs for a day or two next week."
Noll stated that while some cooler air will filter into the East later next week, temperatures in most cases will only dip to near or slightly below average with the coolest locations west of the Appalachians.
"Much of the balance of September is likely to bring above-average temperatures along the Atlantic Seaboard of the Northeast," Noll said.
