New Yorkers are gearing up for a mixed bag of weather conditions over the coming days, with variations across boroughs. Forecasts by the National Weather Service (NWS) predict sunny skies today, with highs reaching the mid-60s in Manhattan, The Bronx, Staten Island, and Queens, while Brooklyn anticipates a slightly cooler 62 degrees. However, the calm weather is not here to stay, with a slight chance of showers and drizzle later in the week.
Tonight, city residents can expect mostly clear conditions, with lows around the low 40s across all boroughs. A south wind will shift to the north after midnight. Calm turns to a stir on Wednesday as partly sunny skies will grace the city, with the high in the mid-50s, and a north wind will embrace the boroughs ranging from 6 to 13 mph before turning east in the afternoon, according to detailed forecasts provided by the NWS for Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, The Bronx, and Staten Island.
The latter part of the week shows a modest rise in precipitation chances with a 20 percent possibility of showers after 2 a.m. Wednesday night. Thursday will follow a similar pattern with a slight chance of showers in the early hours, then a chance of drizzle picks up after 2 p.m. Patchy fog is on the radar for Thursday night. Highs for Thursday stay collected under the grey palette, wavering around the upper 40s and 50s.
The National Weather Service forecasts patchy fog before 8 a.m. on Friday, followed by partly sunny skies and a high near 55 degrees. That sentiment echoes through to a mostly cloudy Friday night with lows in the mid-40s. As for Saturday, cloudy skies will preside, with highs reaching the upper 50s, while Saturday night introduces a 40 percent chance of showers post 8 p.m.
The Bureau indicates an uptick in dreariness with a likelihood of showers and breezy conditions on Sunday, carrying an elevated chance of precipitation at 70% to 80%. These conditions are persisting into the night with lows around the low 50s. The outlook for Monday suggests the possibility of more showers but also breaks of sunshine, as partly sunny skies are anticipated, with highs again flirting with the upper 50s.
The NWS's Hazardous Weather Outlook suggests no immediate severe weather events for the city, negating the need for weather-related advisories or spotter activation at this time.
