NYC Columbus Day Weekend Outlook
Good morning everyone. We have a beautiful week ahead with a varying range of temps, then we’ll be watching closely to see if the remnants of Hurricane Delta affect us via land-route late this weekend.
SATELLITE
We’re ranging from sunny skies to a mix of sun and clouds depending on your locale, with the majority of clouds out to our east. It’ll be a gorgeous and comfortable day, with highs in the upper 60’s to low 70’s.
REGIONAL RADAR
Tomorrow is the warmest day of the week under a mix of sun and clouds. Highs will be in the mid 70’s in most spots, then we’ll have the slight chance of a shower late in the day as cooler air begins to head in.
On Thursday, we drop back down into the mid to upper 60’s, but the core of the cool air doesn’t head in till Friday. Expect upper 50’s to low 60’s as highs for a taste of late October/early November.
LOCAL RADAR NEW YORK CITY
Luckily, that cool air modifies quickly, and we’re back near 70 under full sunshine on Saturday. Low 70’s pay a visit on Sunday, but we’ll be watching those clouds increase as Delta makes its way north and east.
High pressure will be the deciding factor as to if the remnants of Delta make for rainy Monday. If highs pressure dips south and builds in strong, we’ll have a breezy day Monday under sun and clouds and cool conditions. If it meanders more north and doesn’t build in as strong, the remnants will be able to move in and give us a raw day with windswept rain.
We’ll be watching closely.
LOCAL RADAR PHILADELPHIA
As far as Hurricane Delta is concerned, it’s coming in with winds of 110mph at this point, and will remain a very strong hurricane throughout its path. Unfortunately, the Louisiana coast is in the crosshairs again, and we could see some more destruction in the area. As of now, the ETA is some time between late Friday and mid Saturday.
