NYC Very Windy Today With Big Temp Fluctuations Ahead
Good morning everyone and happy TGIF! We’re moving along here in this active pattern, and the wind machine is turned on for today and tomorrow. Things calm down a bit on Sunday, but overall our pattern is on the move and that’ll send us a wide range of temps over the next 2 weeks with no consistency in either direction.
SATELLITE
For today, expect a mix of sun and clouds and very windy. Winds will be sustained at 20-30mph, with gusts 40-50. Overnight, those winds will keep going, and gusts may reach 55mph in some spots. Winds will help keep the frost threat down, but some areas upstate protected from the winds, may see some frost as they dip into the low to mid 30’s. Also, some light snow and flurries are possible tonight well upstate as low pressure leaves the area slowly. Locally, we’ll dip into the low 40’s for the NYC area, and 35-40 for Long Island.
Tomorrow will be blustery and cool with the wind machine still set at medium. We’ll have sunshine and cool temps with mid 60’s for highs. Mid 60’s as highs I would deem “seasonably cool”, but the wind will help make things feel chilly.
On Sunday, we dial back the winds to the “steady” category. 10-15mph westerlies will help warm things up quickly and get that sinking air effect going for the NYC Metro area. Expect 75-80 degree temps across most of the area unless the clouds don’t cooperate.
Monday and Tuesday we go unsettled to start the week, and expect a wide range of temps for the workweek depending on what side of these system’s we’re on. I’m also watching the possibility of a coastal system next weekend, but it’s one of those things that could miss us, yet still impact the temps for our 2nd weekend in May.
