The National Weather Service has provided an extended forecast for New York City's boroughs along with a notice of benign weather conditions. For today, Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, Bronx, and Staten Island are all bathed in sunlight with highs ranging from 52 to 54 degrees, and gentle west winds sweeping across the boroughs. Tonight though, the clouds are expected to roll in, bringing with them a chance of rain that extends into the early hours of the morning, as reported by the National Weather Service.
As the week unfolds, Tuesday brings a heavy likelihood of rain that is set to conclude before evening’s descent, with temperatures hovering around the high 50s to 60 across the boroughs. The aftermath will be gusts reaching up to 24 mph or more, and precipitation levels tallying up a considerable moisture influx. The inclement weather is expected to dispel by Tuesday night, ushering in mostly clear skies with lows plummeting to the mid-30s, the National Weather Service's Extended Forecast illustrates.
Prospects for Thanksgiving Day are looking damp with showers likely to occur, and cloudy skies ensuring high temperatures remain consistent at around 51 to 53 degrees across NYC boroughs. However, the approaching weekend anticipates a drying trend, with a return to mostly sunny conditions and daily highs descending gradually to the low 40s by Saturday. In contrast, the evenings will see a gentle cool with temperatures settling just above the freezing mark, as per forecasts from the National Weather Service for Brooklyn, Queens, Bronx, and Staten Island.
The Hazardous Weather Outlook from the National Weather Service has currently identified no immediate cause for alerts, indicating a period of relative environmental calm for residents over the next seven days, "No hazardous weather is expected at this time that would meet NWS warning criteria," according to the outlook. Spotters, often enlisted in severe weather conditions, are similarly given leave with no activation expected at this time. This forecast and safety assessment covers southern Connecticut, northeast New Jersey, and southeast New York, which includes all of NYC's boroughs. The standing advisory helps frame the expected weather in terms of risk, or in this case, the lack thereof for the populous metropolis and its surrounding areas.
