NYC Weather Update – Mar 26, 2019

This week’s weather features the prominent impact of a slow moving, strong area of high pressure over the region. That translates to calm, generally sunny conditions with a warm up towards the end of the week as the high slides east and we end up in a milder southwesterly flow on its western edge. 

Rest of today – sunny but with cool northerly winds, we will remain below average with highs in the upper-40s and overnight lows in the low-30s

Wednesday – once again we have a cooling influence this time with northeast onshore winds that will keep temperatures below normal in the mid-40s with sunny conditions. Overnight lows again in the low-30s.

Weather Prediction Center surface forecast for 8PM Wednesday

Thursday – as the high pressure moves east of us, we see a shift in winds to the south. This should result in high temperatures right around average in the mid-50s. Should be comfortable spring weather for the Yankees home opener with a light wind blowing from right to left field. This is a welcome contrast from last year, when snow postponed the home opener! Overnight lows will be milder also in the mid-40s

Friday – the warm up continues with high temperatures kicking above normal in the low-60s. It appears the limiting factor for temperatures will be increasing clouds ahead of a cold front. Overnight lows in the upper-40s
