WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW:

It’s was a warm and occasionally stormy Sunday across New Jersey, with highs in the upper 80s to low 90s. Newark Liberty Airport reached 88 degress under partly sunny skies. Some areas saw brief thunderstorms earlier, but conditions have since cleared.

Looking ahead, Monday through Wednesday will be sunny and comfortable with highs in the low 80s.

Tuesday may be the "Pick of The Week," but, again, all three days are winners.

The heat and humidity return late week, with highs near 90 degrees and a chance of storms late Friday into the weekend.
