Memorial Day Weather – May 23, 2014

Just a quick update on your Memorial Day Weekend weather.

Saturday, still looks like there’s a chance for showers and isolated thunderstorms in the NYC metro area in the afternoon hours of Saturday. High temperatures will be mild in the low 70s under mostly cloudy skies.

In Oberlin, temperatures will be around the same in the low 70s, but skies will be clear and sunny.

Sunday will see clearing skies for the NYC metro area and warmer temps in the upper 70s and even low 80s particularly inland. Cooler at the shore with some (especially the south facing shore of  Long Island) with a sea breeze and highs in the low-mid 70s. Still, an all around excellent beach day.

Oberlin will remain sunny with clear skies and highs in the upper 70s.

Monday will be the warmest day of the weekend with highs in the low 80s in the NYC area and mostly sunny skies.

Oberlin may see some clouds building in over the course of the day with an approaching storm system, but not expecting any rain. Highs in the upper 70s.

Visibility for Tonight’s Meteor Showers

Again, it is looking like the NYC area will miss out on the chance to see these meteor showers with cloud cover expected to be widespread. Good viewing for Oberlin though!
