NYC Weather Update – Mar 14, 2016

After a week of being spoiled with late-Spring warmth, we start this week off with a rude awakening of below average temperatures and a rainy, raw day. Temperatures rebound back into above normal ranges quickly, but they won’t be anything like the record-breaking warmth we experienced last week. St. Patrick’s Day looks to be a decent day – at least from a meteorological perspective.

Rest of today – most of the heavier rain has already moved north and east of the area, but lingering showers will punctuate dry spells for the remainder of the day and into the overnight hours. These won’t be the kinds of downpours that get you wet even when you have an umbrella. Combined with a persistent east wind, these showers will be enough to make it feel raw and unpleasant for the day. High temperatures will be below average – only be in the mid-40s with this onshore easterly flow off the ocean.

Tuesday – rain ends early, leaving us with a mostly cloudy day with patchy fog, and a high temperature in the low-mid 50s.

Wednesday – best day of the week by far, as temperatures will rise into the upper-50s to low-60s across the area with partly sunny skies.

Thursday (St. Patrick’s Day) – this day should turn out decently for revelers as temperatures should again be close to 60ºF, however, there is a chance of passing showers in the afternoon.
