NYC Midweek Weather Update – Mar 5, 2014

Just a quick update on the weather for NYC for the rest of the work week into the weekend. It’s finally going to be a quiet weather week for us after what’s been an cold and snowy February.

Tonight, a slight chance of flurries, and a cold night with fairly good conditions for radiational cooling, lows dropping into the low 20s in the city and teens in the interior. Wind chills in the single digits for Thursday morning.

Thursday – high pressure will prevail and bring sunny skies, but still a cold day with highs in the low 30s. Clouds will increase during the day with another slight chance for snow during the night into Friday morning.

Friday – cloudy with temps warming to the low 40s. As the high pressure center moves offshore, winds will shift to the west.

Saturday – increasingly warm with temps near 50 especially in coastal areas due to a northeast wind off of the relatively warmer ocean waters. A storm system will pass well to our south and east, so no precipitation is expected.

Sunday – slightly cooler with highs in the low 40s and a increasing wind from the north.

Our local NWS forecast office put together a great graphic that shows how this past February stacks up climatologically. Check it out:
