Wet weather will linger through the region today as an area of low pressure slowly moves through above. As a result, more unsettled weather lingers into tonight.
Tomorrow has fairer weather slowly moving in as the low pressure departs the region. A spotty shower or two can't be ruled out for Friday, but most locations will trend drier with a mix of sun and clouds.
Don’t even think about staying indoors this weekend. Nature is rolling out the red carpet for the Hudson Valley! We are tracking a delightful warm-up as temperatures soar 10 to 15 degrees above the seasonal average for both days. Saturday promises to be the pick of the week with mostly sunny skies, followed by a beautiful mix of sun and clouds on Sunday. While a stray shower might try to crash the party during the second half of the weekend, most locations will stay perfectly dry and comfortable for outdoor plans.
The summer-like vibes won't end when the weekend does; in fact, the heat is only getting started. As we head into the new workweek, the warmth will intensify across the valley with temperatures climbing into the mid-80s. By Tuesday afternoon, the mercury could even flirt with the 90-degree mark in some spots for a true preview of July. Sadly, this early-season heat wave is destined to fade by Wednesday as a new weather system approaches the area, bringing a return of rain chances and a reality check to the thermometer.
