NYC Weather Update – May 8, 2014

We have a similar setup as last week that’s bringing overcast and rainy conditions to the region. A warm front well to our south is causing southeasterly/easterly winds off the cold Atlantic to stream in and saturate the atmosphere. Today, temperatures will be cooler with highs in the upper 50s.

Unsettled weather conditions will continue Friday with the approach and passage of the aforementioned warm front. Temperatures will be warmer in the upper 60s, with a chance for showers and thunderstorms throughout the day.

Saturday looks like a warmer copy of Friday, again with the chance for showers and thunderstorms during the day and with increasing chance for precipitation in the evening/night hours as the cold front depicted above makes its way through. High temperatures will be in the mid 70s despite the cloud cover.

Sunday should be the best day of the weekend (just in time for Mother’s Day), with the frontal boundaries having passed over, skies should clear and allow for temperatures to top out near 80 in the city.

Monday the period of good weather continues to start the next work week, with high temperatures again possibly hitting 80 and mostly sunny skies.
