New York, NY – Light rain will gradually taper off across the Tri-State area by late Saturday night, setting the stage for a cooler and mostly cloudy Sunday with highs struggling to reach 70 degrees in most locations.
According to the National Weather Service in New York, lingering showers will shift southward and diminish after 9 p.m. Saturday. Dry conditions are expected by mid-morning Sunday, but widespread cloud cover will keep the region on the cool side. Morning lows will dip into the mid-50s across much of the area, including Newburgh, White Plains, and Bridgeport, with highs reaching only the upper 60s to near 70 in cities like Stamford, Newark, and Waterbury.
Islip and parts of Long Island may see isolated early-morning drizzle, while inland areas like Danbury and Poughkeepsie stay dry but gray. Despite improving conditions, residents should consider layering up and keeping outdoor plans flexible.
Traffic and travel impacts are minimal, but cooler temps could affect those heading to the beaches or outdoor festivals. With no major systems moving in, utility disruptions or severe threats remain unlikely.
Temperatures remain mild through early next week, with next rain chances not returning until late Monday or Tuesday.
