ALBANY — The heat is on.
By the middle of the week, temperatures are expected to rise into the mid-80s in Orange County and the lower 80s in portions of the mid-Hudson Valley region — a double-digit deviation from the 30-year average, according to the National Weather Service.
The summer-like heat could begin to set in across the valley on Monday and last through Thursday, before declining to the milder upper and mid-70s on Friday.
