NEW YORK (WABC) --
Most places will have no trouble reaching the lower or middle 70s
Saturday, before a couple of showers associated with our next front
arrives at some point during the afternoon.
That front will have a profound impact on how the rest of the
weekend will turn out, because as a low pressure system starts to
develop along it late Saturday/Saturday night in the southern
Appalachians, there should be an area of steady rain developing in an
area north of where this body of low pressure will be tracking. So using the European global model as an example of what kind of rain we're anticipating, this form of guidance is calling for a paltry 0.02" of rain in Central Park late Saturday as the front moves through, but then an additional 0.44" prints out during the day on Sunday. Because the actual track of this wave should make areas south of the City more susceptible to 'getting wet for a lengthier period of time', we expect that rainfall totals on Sunday will range anywhere from around a tenth of an inch in parts of the Hudson Valley and across interior sections of Connecticut, to between 0.25" and 0.50" elsewhere across the Tri-State Area, including the City, its adjacent suburbs and all points located farther south.
There doesn't seem to be any kind of flooding threat Sunday or Sunday night across the region, but after the kind of warmth we'll be experiencing today, Sunday will seem like a raw, damp and downright chilly kind of day, with most temperatures failing to get out of the mid 50s.
By Monday, there should be some sunshine returning, and most temperatures will return to the lower and middle 60s, which is still just a bit below normal for this time of year. Tuesday is looking fabulous, but we will have to be on the lookout for another round of showers during midweek as the next front arrives.
Have a good day!!!
