New Yorkers can expect a chilly start to the weekend, with forecasts calling for partly sunny skies today and high temperatures hovering in the low 30s. Wind chill values will make it feel significantly colder, with temperatures ranging between 15 and 25 degrees across Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, the Bronx, and Staten Island.
Tonight, all boroughs are expected to see partly cloudy conditions with lows in the low 20s, along with continued west winds around 7 mph. A slight chance of snow is predicted to start after 1 am on Saturday night, with a 20% chance in Manhattan and a 30% chance in the other boroughs. Despite these frigid conditions, The National Weather Service assures that there is no hazardous weather expected that would meet their warning criteria, at least for the coming days, as reported by their Hazardous Weather Outlook.
Heading into Sunday, a shift towards mostly sunny weather is anticipated, with highs modestly climbing to the mid-30s across all five boroughs. Northwest winds will also persist, ranging from 5 to 10 mph. The remainder of the week promises a pattern of increasing clouds and temperatures, with highs eventually reaching the mid-40s by Wednesday and the same range of lows each night, staying consistently around the low 30s.
The upcoming week is expected to bring a gradual warming trend, though cold conditions will continue at the start. Spotter activation is not expected, according to the National Weather Service, indicating relatively calm weather despite the brisk temperatures across New York City.
