NEW YORK — A spring storm is expected in our area. The weekend will start with rain, but will end in a pleasant way.
Let’s start with Friday which will be mostly dry with highs in the mid 50s and showers possible south of the five boroughs. Then comes Saturday with the storm.
So pack those umbrellas because you’ll definitely need them as a spring storm approaches that will bring rain, the possibility of a few thunderstorms, strong gusts of wind, and even a wintry mix to parts of our area by Saturday.
Some of us might even need it on Friday, with a line of precipitation moving along a stalling front south with rain over central and southern New Jersey and even into the southern metro area. With lots of clouds and a chance of some showers, Friday’s highs will be in the 50s.
An even colder day awaits us on Saturday, starting with snow and ice falling in the northern and inner suburbs and cold rain for the rest of the area. Around noon, a line of thunderstorms could develop moving west to east, with drier air following in its wake, ending the precipitation by dinnertime. The sun will return on Sunday, which will be the best day of our weekend with sunny skies and much warmer temperatures.
