MILD NYC FRIDAY BRIEF COOL DOWN AHEAD
Good late morning everyone. We have a mild start to the day today, where temps in parts of NYC have broken the 60 degree mark. However and as expected, south facing shores of Staten Island, Queens and eastward towards Nassau and Suffolk, are having a tough time getting past 50 as of now. The north facing shores along the sound are doing much better as that SSW wind is traveling over land first, not cool ocean.
EASTERN SATELLITE
We could see a brief rain shower at any point of the day from here onward. The “bulk” of the energy (and it’s not very impressive), will head in between 4-6pm with more widespread, but still on and off showers. A rumble of thunder remains possible, but nothing severe or even strong is expected. Highs today will be all over the place depending on your location.
Areas of Manhattan, northern sections of Staten Island, downtown Brooklyn, and central and northern Queens, will see mid to upper 60’s. Could someone see 70? It’s possible if the fog and mist cooperate, along with some extra peeks of sun. Inland areas west of NYC are more likely to see it though as they are less influenced by the marine layer. South facing shores will remain mostly in the 50’s as clearing that hurdle with the cold ocean and SSW wind will be a tough pull.
REGIONAL RADAR
Tomorrow is holding steady as we begin to cool down and increase the wind. Highs remain solid in the upper 40’s to low 50’s and a breezy day. If there was such a thing called “typical St Patrick’s Day parade weather”, this is it.
For Sunday, we dip below average with a seasonably cool low to mid 40’s. We are below average, yes, but I don’t like to throw the word “unseasonably” around too easily, because this is typical March weather in terms of ups and downs we get.
LOCAL RADAR NEW YORK CITY
We remain cool for Monday and Tuesday, and I’ll keep that slight chance of a sprinkle or flurry as cool air is reinforced Monday for Tuesday. It remains of no consequence, so you won’t see much discussion by me on it.
We begin to modify back towards average on Wednesday, then possibly see 50’s again Thursday onward. Â Another system will begin to lurk by late next weekend, but it’ll take a familiar north and west path; so for those looking for a surprise spring wintry wonderland, the chance is 0% on that one and diminishing every day as we go on.
In the long range, “seasonal” “typical” are words best used to describe what I see. Aside from brief, front-related mildness, and brief, system-departing coolness, we are looking dead-on normal for March/early April.
