<p>The fierce heat wave that's scorching much of the eastern half of the nation has already "smashed records not just for a particular calendar day, but also anytime in June," noted Weather.com meteorologist Jonathan Erdman in an online report released June 24. "In a few locations, it's even tied or set new all-time records."</p>
<p>Many records were set Monday, June 23 and many more were expected to be set on Tuesday, June 24. All told, more than 160 daily high temperature records are threatened this week in the East, AccuWeather meteorologist Jesse Ferrell said.</p>
<p>Plattsburgh, New York, tied its all-time record high of 101 degrees June 23, the National Weather Service said. This tied the mark set twice before, on August 1 and 2, 1975, and again on August 5, 1955.</p>
<p>On the shores of Lake Champlain, the city reached 100 degrees for only the fourth time in its almost 80-year period of record, Erdman said.</p>
<p>Several all-time records for warm overnight lows were also set or tied in the Midwest over the past several days, including in Green Bay, Wisconsin (79 degrees) and Lansing, Michigan (78 degrees).</p>
<p>Also Monday, June 23, Baltimore's Inner Harbor soared to 104 degrees, just 2 degrees shy of the nation's hottest temperature (106 at Death Valley), he said.</p>
<p>June record set in Vermont</p>
<p>A June record was tied June 23 in North Hartland, Vermont: This small town near the New Hampshire border soared to 101 degrees June 23, tying Vermont's June record with St. Johnsbury on June 4-5, 1919, according to weather records expert Maxmiliano Herrera and weather historian Christopher Burt.</p>
<p>Amazingly, this Vermont town was hotter than both Tucson and Yuma, Arizona, on Monday (each reached 99 degrees), Erdman said.</p>

<p>By 12:30 p.m. on June 24, the temperature had already reached 101 degrees at John F. Kennedy Airport in New York, breaking the monthly record at the site.</p>
<p>The previous record – 99 degrees – was set four times in the past. Records at the site date back to 1948, when the airport was known as Idlewild.</p>
<p>Elsewhere on June 24, Newark's Liberty Airport hit 103 degrees, tying a record high for the month of June. New York's Central Park hit a daily record of 98 degrees, breaking the previous record of 96 degrees, set in 1888.</p>
<p>Boston sets a record</p>
<p>Boston hit 100 degrees on Tuesday, June 24, the first such reading since July 24, 2022, according to Ferrell. This also broke the record for the day, which was 95 degrees set in 2013.</p>
