NEW YORK — Could it be a truly rainless weekend?
It’s something we haven’t seen in a couple of months, but this weekend we may go all day Saturday and Sunday without any precipitation. It’s been eight straight weekends of rain, so a break would be more than welcome.
Before we get into the weekend, we still have to get through the coldest air of the season taking over the New York City area. Central Park dropped to 35 degrees Thursday morning, the coldest level since March 30.
Friday will have another cold start, although not as cold as Thursday, and temperatures will begin to recover to near-typical levels throughout the day. Highs will reach 50 degrees with clear skies, before we enter the first dry weekend in two months.
And the break couldn’t come at a better time for thousands of runners at the New York City Marathon on Sunday, as conditions look ideal for participants and spectators alike. Temperatures will be in the 50s early in the morning and rise to the 60s in the afternoon, with plenty of sun shining through the clouds.
And don’t forget: Daylight saving time ends on Sunday, so remember to turn your clocks back an hour that night (for an extra hour of sleep… or at the bar, anyway). And with that change also comes earlier sunsets: Sunday’s sunset will be the first before 5 pm of the season.
Rain is once again possible on Election Day, although not those systems that look strong enough to be a real problem across the region. Colder temperatures follow to conclude the week, as they will only reach the upper 40s and low 50s.
