STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. — You know summer is starting to change over to fall as Halloween (and even some Christmas) decorations beginning taking over store shelves and residents are lugging them out of their garages and attics in anticipation of the holiday season.
Mother nature, on the other hand, isn’t necessarily ready to pack up her short-sleeved shirts and loungewear, as things look bright for the upcoming work week — at least according to the National Weather Service.
Monday is expected to be a warm one with mostly sunny skies and a high about 80 degrees as the kids return for the second full week of classes. Later on, things are expected to cool down a bit to around 61 degrees at night and patchy fog during the early morning hours heading into Tuesday.
Tuesday carries more of that patchy fog up until around 7 a.m. The fog is expected to transition into sunny skies with a high near 76 degrees. Tuesday night dips down to around 62 degrees, and there’s a 40% chance of showers around 2 a.m. spilling into Wednesday.
Wednesday may be a bit wet. There’s a 50% chance of showers throughout the day and temps are expected to hit a high of around 74 degrees. More of the same is predicted come nightfall, with a chance for rain and a low around 63 degrees.
You’ll want to keep the umbrellas in sight Thursday as there’s at least a 30% chance of seeing rainfall which will taper off at around 2 p.m. Temperatures will reach around 79 degrees. Nighttime brings an opportunity to perhaps sit outside as things will remain mostly clear and temps are expected to dip down to 64 degrees.
Finishing things out as we head into the weekend, Friday teases a hint of summer weather with sunny skies and temperatures swinging back up to 84 degrees. Enjoy clear skies again Friday night, with temps dipping down to around 61 degrees, forecasters say.
