Whoa, perhaps Gothamist is misinterpreting the Weather Channel's pollen forecast, but it seems like they are saying today is an excellent day to get high on weed, or the weed count is high, we are a little confused. If you do decide to make a purchase in Washington Square Park, the weather is going to be better during the daylight hours than after sunset. Yet another cold front, our third in a week, will be sweeping through town tonight. Ahead of the front we can expect showers and possibly thundershowers. The Weather Service is saying a 50% chance of showers while Weather.com gives the showers only a thirty percent chance of occurring.
Three cold fronts in a week, could it be that we have begun the inevitable cooling into autumn? Yes. In the meantime we've got a gorgeously sunny weekend on tap. Tomorrow, after the clouds, sunny, high near 80. Saturday: Sunny, high in the upper-70s. Sunday: Sunny, high in the mid-80s. Monday: Sunny, warming up to the upper-80s. A great weekend for outdoor Shakespeare such as "As You Like It" in a parking lot off Ludlow, or "The Comedy of Errors" near the West 103rd Street entrance to Central Park.
