Discussion
It turns cooler today in the NYC metro region following the overnight passage of a cold frontal system and temperatures are likely to be confined to the upper 70’s for afternoon highs and then the middle 70’s for highs on Friday. With the frontal system stalling out in rather close proximity, the weather here will remain somewhat unsettled with the chance of showers and thunderstorms from later tonight into Friday.
Another cold front will bear down on the Mid-Atlantic during the day Saturday and this “primary” frontal system will likely bring more showers and thunderstorms to the region from later Saturday into Saturday night. A “secondary” cold front will then drop south and east into the Mid-Atlantic region from later Sunday into Monday and it can result in additional shower activity here to close out the weekend though likely not as widespread or as heavy as with the “primary” cold front earlier in the weekend. A cool, dry blast of air arrives on Monday, Labor Day, featuring below-normal temperatures and very comfortable humidity levels.
