New York, NY — After a frigid start with temperatures dipping below freezing across the northern and interior sections, New York City will see clouds increase throughout Sunday ahead of a rainy and foggy start to the workweek.
According to the National Weather Service, Monday’s rain will begin overnight, with the heaviest showers likely falling before 4 p.m. East winds will intensify, reaching 10–16 mph, increasing the chill. Patchy fog is expected, particularly before sunrise, which could reduce visibility for commuters heading into the city. Drivers on major roadways, including I-95 and I-87, should exercise caution due to slick surfaces and low visibility.
Temperatures will climb to around 50°F by Monday afternoon, offering a brief reprieve from Sunday’s early cold, though winds and damp conditions will keep it feeling cooler. Monday night brings continued rain and dense fog, keeping roads hazardous into Tuesday morning.
The extended outlook highlights a mix of sun and showers midweek. Tuesday will gradually clear, with highs reaching 58°F, while Wednesday brings another round of rain, with a 50–80% chance throughout the day and night. Temperatures will remain seasonable, peaking in the mid-40s to low 50s, with cooler lows near 40°F.
Residents are advised to bundle up through Sunday, keep umbrellas handy for Monday, and plan extra travel time for the foggy and rainy conditions. Stay tuned for updates and safety advisories as weather patterns develop.
