Weekend Weather: Sunny with a Chance of Rain

Yes, it's summer, but this being New York, there's no telling what the wily weather will do over the weekend.

Poor weather is nearly guaranteed in the winter months, but we'd hate for you to make extensive beach plans, only to see them cancelled by an unexpected thunderstorm.

So each week this summer, Patch will keep you abreast of the weather with information from the National Weather Service.

Friday: There will be a chance of rain and thunderstorms later this afternoon, but otherwise, the skies should be mostly sunny, with highs near 88 degrees. The chance of rain will increase tonight between 10 p.m. and 3 a.m., and the temperature will drop to the low 70s.

Saturday: The threat of thunderstorms is greatest before 11 a.m., but the day will nonetheless remain mostly cloudy. Highs will be near 80 degrees. Saturday night will also be partly cloudy, with lows around 64 degrees.

Sunday: Sunday, on the other hand, is expected to be quite pleasant, with mostly sunny skies and highs around 79 degrees. Sunday night will see clouds and a chance of rain, with the low around 65.
