Syracuse, N.Y. \u2014 After a few more days of 90 degrees \u2014 or close to it \u2014 the heat should break in Upstate New York just in time for the opening of the New York State Fair<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The overall trend for the fair\u2019s first week is slightly below normal temperatures and not much rain, according to<\/a> the National Weather Service\u2019s long-range forecasting arm, the Climate Prediction Center.<\/p>\n

That doesn\u2019t mean there can\u2019t be hot days during that first week, but that the average temperature for the week is likely to be lower than the normal highs of about 80.<\/p>\n

Today through Sunday, highs will be in the upper 80s or low 90s in Syracuse, with plenty of humidity to make it feel even hotter. <\/p>\n

But a cold front from the west and a longer-term shift of the jet stream should bring cooler temperatures to the fair\u2019s first week, forecasters say.<\/p>\n

By Wednesday, the opening day of the fair, the high temperature in Syracuse is expected to be 77 degrees under sunny skies. Days 2 and 3 of the fair look similar.<\/p>\n

Temperatures are likely to edge up during the fair\u2019s first weekend, into the mid 80s with the chance for some thunderstorms developing on Saturday, Aug. 23. It\u2019s too early to make any precise predictions about the amount of rain or the timing, though.<\/p>\n
