Weather NYC: Clear and 48 to Start Monday, Overcast and 57 by Afternoon — Rain Chances Rise Thursday and Friday
New York starts Monday clear at 48.7 degrees, feeling like 40.8, and turns overcast with a high of 57.7 — while the feed's rain probabilities for Thursday (68%) and Friday (70%) have both risen overnight.
The city starts Monday the way late autumn is supposed to feel: clear, cold and quiet. The station feed puts New York at 48.7 degrees under a clear sky early Monday, feeling like 40.8. The day itself turns overcast, with a high of 57.7 and a low of 42.7 and only a 3 percent precipitation probability — dry, grey and seasonable, with the morning's chill, not the afternoon's cloud, setting the coat.
The week's warm day is still Tuesday — 62.1 degrees, overcast, a low of 41.2 and a 2 percent rain chance — and Wednesday still holds at 59 with the week's mildest night, a low of 49.5 and no rain in the feed, which is also parade day on Fifth Avenue. What has changed overnight is the back half of the week: Thursday's rain, code 65 on the feed, now carries a 68 percent probability, and Friday's showers have risen to 70 percent, at highs of 59 and 54.5 respectively. Saturday remains the week's coldest day at 47.8, with its shower probability now at 46 percent.
Nothing in the feed names a storm or any severe event for New York City this week, and this desk does not invent one: the story is a dry, cold start, one warm Tuesday, a dry parade Wednesday, and a wetter, colder turn behind it. The feed is read live at the top of every cycle; this file will be re-filed when its numbers move.
