The battle between spring warmth and stubborn chill will continue around the New York City area this week.
The weekend chill will give way to a rebound in temperatures on Monday. Temperatures will return to a more seasonable high, eclipsing Sunday's high by about 10 degrees.
A high in the middle 50s is more common this time of year.
Sunshine and calm winds, however, will not compliment the milder air.

A storm system sweeping through the Northeast will instead deliver clouds and brisk winds. A rain shower will dampen the city in the morning.
The winds will hold AccuWeather.com RealFeel® temperatures below actual temperatures.
On the heels of this system will be another set to spread a narrow and quick-hitting band of snow from the Upper Midwest to the Northeast Tuesday into Tuesday night.

AccuWeather.com meteorologists will be monitoring the potential for a little snow to reach the I-95 corridor from far southern New England to New Jersey Tuesday night.
A significant chill at midweek will not follow Tuesday's system. Temperatures on Wednesday should only be held a few degrees below normal.
After the cold this weekend and with sunshine in the forecast, most residents will likely view Wednesday as a comfortable day. AccuWeather.com RealFeel® temperatures will actually be slightly higher than actual temperatures thanks to a lack of wind and the stronger March sun.

Another surge of warmth will follow for Thursday, causing temperatures to flirt with the 60-degree mark. As is typical of spring, the mild air does not look to hold firm with yet another shot of cool air in the works for Easter weekend.
