WEATHER THIS WEEK: February 16 – 22

Your weekly forecast by Zachary Jacomowitz

Hello, Rockland County! I hope you’ve had a great week. Let’s take a look at the forecast to see if any wintry weather is expected in the short-term.

Friday: Mostly cloudy with rain showers. High near 54° in the morning before temperatures drop into the 40s by the late afternoon. Breezy. Chance of rain is 60%.

Saturday: Mostly sunny to partly cloudy and colder. High near 35° after a morning low near 20°. Chance of precipitation is 0%.

[Update from editor – since Zach’s original forecast the expected arrival of Sunday morning precipitation has been moved up several hours, now anticipated to begin Saturday night and bring a few inches of the white stuff to the NY-metro region]

Sunday: Cloudy. A storm nearby could provide us with some wintry precipitation, especially during the morning. High near 37° after a morning low near 28°. Chance of precipitation is 40%.

Presidents’ Day: Mostly cloudy. High near 44° after a morning low near 24°. Chance of precipitation is 10%.

Tuesday: Mostly cloudy with a few rain showers. Mild, with a high near 55° after a morning low near 40°. Chance of rain is 40%.

Wednesday: Mostly cloudy with some rain showers, possible. Mild, with a high near 57° after a morning low near 48°. Chance of rain is 40%.

Thursday: Partly cloudy and colder. High near 38° after a morning low near 25°. Chance of precipitation is 20%.

SUMMARY:

The possible system for Saturday night into Sunday morning is uncertain at this time. Plan for possible precipitation, perhaps wintry, but it isn’t guaranteed. Otherwise, a roller coaster of temperatures is expected through next week. Have a good one!
