New York, NY – A damp, foggy stretch continues across New York City this Wednesday, as another round of showers could disrupt morning commutes and school drop-offs.
According to the National Weather Service, a 50% chance of rain begins mid-morning Wednesday, accompanied by lingering patchy fog. Highs will hover near 68°F, with light southwest winds. Though rainfall amounts will remain low—less than a tenth of an inch—visibility may be reduced below 2 miles at times, especially near coastal and low-lying areas.
Travelers should allow extra time on I-278, FDR Drive, and the Brooklyn-Queens Expressway, where wet pavement and limited visibility could slow traffic. Pedestrians and cyclists are also urged to use caution on slick sidewalks and crosswalks.
Rain risks diminish Wednesday night with partly cloudy skies and a low near 59°F. Thursday brings a dry break, with partly sunny skies and a high near 69°F. However, more showers return Thursday night and Friday, keeping the city in a rinse-and-repeat weather pattern into the weekend.
