Flip-Flopping Weather Continues

Weather Flip Flop by Glark

The ol' cliché of "if you don't like the weather in xxxx wait ten minutes, it will change" is true in New York this week. A series of quick moving systems have already brought a variety of weather to the city and will continue to do so until the weekend. For today east winds tell the story. Low pressure south of Long Island will bring cool, foggy and drizzly conditions until mid-afternoon. Today's high will stick to the lower 50s. Despite the cooler weather the month is still on track to be one of the warmest May's since records have been kept.

Starting in the afternoon small high pressure system will struggle with all it's might to get rid of this gunk. Look for a mix of sun and clouds, heavy on the clouds, tomorrow with a high rising into the 60s.

Yet another storm approaches on Friday. This one will pass north of the city so we'll see a big warm up to the mid 70s. There will be a decent chance of showers or a thunderstorm Friday afternoon. The moisture, however, should be gone by the weekend. Saturday and Sunday are both shaping up to be sunny with highs in the 70s.

    I think I missed it... was April the hottest on record?

  • Joe Schumacher

    Yes, April was the hottest on record by a degree. March was the fourth warmest. Through yesterday May was on track to be third warmest. The cool weather today will knock that down a bit but looking at the extended forecast I'd say this month still has a good chance of finishing as one of the warmest Mays.
