New York, NY – Drivers and pedestrians should plan for wet roads and possible slowdowns as steady showers target Central Park and much of Manhattan Thursday, July 10. Summer weather alerts are in effect, with forecasters highlighting the afternoon hours for heavier rainfall and potential thunderstorms across the city.

According to the National Weather Service, showers are likely throughout Thursday with a 70% chance of rain and the potential for localized thunderstorms, especially after 2 p.m. Expect temperatures to hover near 76°F and south winds at 5–8 mph. Commuters using West 59th Street, Central Park West, and nearby avenues should leave extra travel time, as rain may reduce visibility and make crosswalks slick. The city’s Department of Transportation recommends avoiding unnecessary trips and watching for ponding along park drives and major intersections.

Friday brings a break from steady rain but keeps a 30% chance for pop-up showers or a stray thunderstorm after 2 p.m., as clouds linger and highs reach 79°F. The weekend looks brighter: Saturday turns partly sunny with temperatures climbing to 81°F, making it ideal for outdoor plans, while Sunday could see another brief shower chance in the afternoon, with highs near 82°F. Humidity remains elevated, so keep water handy if you’re spending time outdoors.

Stay alert for changing conditions and check back for further advisories, as more rain could return early next week. Warnings may be updated as needed through Monday night.
