6-Day forecast for the New York City metro region
Today
Mainly cloudy, warm, humid, breezy, good chance of showers and a possible strong thunderstorm, some of the rain can be heavy at times, highs in the lower 80’s
Tonight
Mainly cloudy, mild, chance of an evening showers and thunderstorm, lows in the lower 60’s
Friday
Mainly sunny, warm, low-to-mid 80’s for afternoon highs
Friday Night
Mainly clear, mild, lower 60’s for late night lows
Saturday
Increasing clouds, comfortable temperatures, cannot rule out a couple of late day and evening showers, maybe a thunderstorm, upper 70’s
Sunday
Considerable clouds, still comfortable, chance of showers and thunderstorms, mid 70’s
Monday
Considerable clouds, still on the cool side of normal for this time of year, chance of showers and thunderstorms, mid 70’s
Tuesday
Partly sunny, still a bit cooler-than-normal, chance of showers and thunderstorms, mid 70’s
Discussion
A slow-moving cool front will bring us occasional showers today and there can be a strong thunderstorm mixed in as well. A cooler-than-normal air mass will push into the region early this weekend resulting in comfortable temperatures for the weekend and the first half of next week. The atmosphere will become increasingly unsettled, however, with the combination of cool air aloft and a slow-moving upper-level trough moving in overhead. Showers cannot be ruled out later Saturday and there is a likelihood for showers on Sunday, Monday and perhaps Tuesday as well.
