Rainy weather in NYC area clears out to end weekend
A rainy weekend is in store for the New York City area, prompting the CBS News New York First Alert Weather Team to issue a First Alert Weather Day on Saturday.
It's been a soggy start to the weekend, and there's more of that to come.
Saturday night forecast
Rain, which may be heavy at times, will continue through Saturday night. Some snow may even mix in for the higher elevations well to the north of the city.
Final rain totals will average between 1-2 inches, which is very beneficial, given the dry pattern the region has been in since 2025.
Lows Saturday night will generally stay close to where they've been all day, in the low 40s and upper 30s.
Sunday forecast
Some residual showers may linger into early Sunday morning, but the majority of the rainfall should be over by sunrise.
A slow and gradual clearing can be expected for the rest of the day.
With sunshine returning, temperatures will respond accordingly, reaching the mid to upper 50s for highs. This will certainly make it a nice end to the weekend.
