As New Yorkers enjoy a sunny start to the week with temperatures rising into the mid-80s, the National Weather Service forecasts a notable change, with showers and thunderstorms expected to begin Tuesday night. The forecast for Manhattan includes a sunny today and a clear night, with an expected low around 62 degrees; similar conditions are also expected in forecasts for Brooklyn, Queens, Bronx, and Staten Island.
Tuesday night will bring a significant change in weather conditions across the city, with a 90% chance of showers and thunderstorms and rainfall amounts projected between a quarter and half of an inch. Forecasts indicate that Staten Island may see thunderstorms after 5 a.m., while Brooklyn could experience wind gusts reaching up to 20 mph.
