Yesterday's record-setting heat of 92 degrees in Central Park was the "earliest-recorded day in the year to have ever hit 90 degrees," according to NY1. People flooded to the parks for some rays, while stripping down to sun dresses, shorts, and flip-flops.
The NY Times reports that summer-like weather prompted one New Yorker to cancel work: An East Village carpenter said he told his client that he wasn't going to work on a project because he'd be spending the gorgeous day in Central Park, "I don’t lie to clients... If you live in Florida, you ignore a day like today, because every day is like today. In New York you don’t have a lot of days like this. On a warm, sunny day, I could be broke and I’d be a happy man."
