New York, NY – Hot, sunny weather will dominate Saturday across New York, but changes are already on the horizon before the weekend ends. Temperatures are expected to climb into the mid-80s Saturday with low humidity, offering a brief stretch of ideal late-summer conditions before showers move in late Sunday night.
According to the National Weather Service, Saturday will be mostly sunny with highs near 84°F and a light breeze from the east. Sunday is expected to be hotter, nearing 89°F, with clouds building by evening. A 30% chance of showers could bring slick conditions to elevated roads like the FDR Drive and West Side Highway between 8 p.m. and 2 a.m. Monday.

Monday brings relief, with a drop in temps to the mid-70s and partly sunny skies. The cooler trend will continue through midweek, with April-like highs in the upper 70s and a chance for scattered rain by Wednesday.
