Discussion

Today will be a transition day with a cool frontal passage between the warm, humid and unsettled conditions that we experienced during the long holiday weekend and much more comfortable weather for the remainder of the week. There will be some clouds this morning and a lingering shower or two, and then increasing amounts of sunshine this afternoon with less humid air becoming established by later today and early tonight. Nice weather will continue for the rest of the week with comfortable temperatures and humidity levels and plenty of sunshine each day. The coolest day of the week may turn out to be on Friday following the passage of a secondary cool front with highs possibly holding in the middle 70's to close out the work week. August turned out to be cooler-than-normal by 0.5 degrees in the NYC metro region, but September should be slightly above normal despite the cool start to the new month this week.
