Bone dry air has moved into town following Saturday's half-inch of rain, no doubt aiding and abetting yesterday's Staten Island brush fires. As the winds died down the lack of humidity allowed the temperature to plummet overnight. This morning's lows bottomed out near the freezing mark across the city. The dry air mass will move eastward today, allowing the mercury to rebound to almost 60 this afternoon (BTW, could NY1's weather page be any worse?). It should be in the mid 50s when Mike Pelfrey throws the first pitch at Citi Field's regular season debut.
Clouds arrive late tonight and rain may follow as early as tomorrow evening. A low pressure system centered over Memphis is making its way eastward. It currently appears that New York will be on the northern edge of that storm's rain shield. Expect a brisk easterly wind and light rain from Tuesday evening through Wednesday. Highs both days will be within a couple degrees of 50.
The passing of that storm will set the stage for several days of very pleasant weather. Look ahead to mostly sunny skies from Thursday through Sunday. Highs Thursday should be in the mid 50s, with warmer conditions in store for Friday and Saturday.
