Absolutely gorgeous weather is on the way for the afternoon. A cold front will bring cloudy weather and rain showers tomorrow & then cooler weather for Friday into the weekend. Here's everything you need to know:
Today
Dress for an April-feel this afternoon. Temperatures quickly jump into the 50s by lunchtime and in the 60s for mid-afternoon. There is plenty of sunshine to start, but thin clouds will arrive after noon.
Tonight will be cloudy and foggy. Temperatures are not as cold with mid-40s.
Tomorrow is the first day of spring!
It's a gloomy day with cloudy skies and fog in the morning. Temperatures will rise from the 40s early to low 50s in the afternoon, but we are not expecting a lot of sunshine. It's breezy in the afternoon with winds gusting up to 20 mph at times.
Rain on the way
Expect steady rain showers Thursday night after 5 p.m. through the overnight hours. Up to 1" of rain is expected by Friday morning. Rain showers will dissipate by Friday morning, around 9 a.m..
Colder & Windier on Friday
A few snow showers could mix with rain early Friday morning (mainly north and west of I-287). Sunny skies will return, with a stiff breeze at 20-25 mph. Gusts may reach 40 mph. High temperatures will be in the mid-40s, but it will feel more like 30s.
The Weekend
Saturday is mainly cloudy with a few stray showers. Temperatures are cold to start, in the 30s, but warm up to the mid or upper 50s in the afternoon. Breezy weather is expected with gusts up to 20 mph in the afternoon.
Sunday is colder but sunnier than Saturday. Temperatures will likely be below freezing on Sunday morning with highs in the mid-40s in the afternoon. Expect lots of sunshine, but a breezy afternoon.
Messy Monday
We're tracking a storm next Monday that will bring the potential for steady rain, and it could be cold enough for some wintry mix in parts of the Hudson Valley. Stay tuned for the latest updates.
