Mother Nature may throw a little temper tantrum this afternoon, so you may want to take an early lunch or have it delivered. A warm front moving north through the city this morning will bring lots of humid, unstable air to the region. A trough of low pressure is expected to follow around 1 p.m. This disturbance will kick off showers and thunderstorms. The storms may contain strong, damaging winds, large hail, and rain of the intense downpour variety. It would not surprise Gothamist if a severe thunderstorm watch were posted later today. The high today will be a very soggy 80 degrees. An approaching cold front tonight will extend the chance of showers and thunderstorms until well after midnight.

Usually the passage of a cold front means calmer weather. That may be true for tomorrow, but the remainder of the week is looking unsettled. A few lingering showers in the morning tomorrow will give way to a mostly cloudy day with seasonable temperatures. Wednesday and Thursday are looking cool, with highs only in the mid-70s. There will be a slight chance of showers or thunderstorms each day.

Friday and Saturday should show some moderation back to seasonable temperatures, but the chance of showers will continue. The weekend forecast is currently very uncertain. It is a coin toss between warm, muggy and showery and sunny and dry.
