New York, NY – Spring in New York will deliver a welcome change for millions as breezy winds and sun take hold Sunday, kicking off a calmer week. Residents can expect a dramatic shift after Saturday’s storms, with dry skies, warmer afternoons, and gusty breezes—especially in Manhattan and along the FDR Drive.
According to the National Weather Service, Sunday brings mostly sunny skies and a high near 60°F. Winds will gust up to 22 mph, especially in exposed areas like Central Park and along the Hudson. After a cloudy and wet start to the weekend, this turnaround means safer travel, clearer commutes, and ideal spring weather for outdoor plans. Monday keeps the trend going with full sun and highs reaching 69°F. By Tuesday, temperatures soar to 74°F under mostly sunny conditions, perfect for city parks, walking the High Line, or biking the West Side Highway.
NWS urges New Yorkers to secure loose outdoor items due to Sunday’s gusts and to stay hydrated as temperatures rise through midweek. The clear stretch continues into Wednesday, with highs in the low 70s and little chance for rain. By Thursday and Friday, however, a 50 percent chance of showers returns, potentially affecting evening commutes and outdoor events citywide.
Here’s the five-day forecast:
- Sunday: Mostly sunny, high 60°F, breezy.
- Monday: Sunny, high 69°F.
- Tuesday: Mostly sunny, high 74°F.
