From Mild and Dry to Raw and Damp: Lower Hudson Valley Weather Forecast

We hope you enjoyed your mild March weekend, because Monday will be something different.

Sunday afternoon highs should reach close to 60, though clouds will move in.

Overnight, rain in the early morning hours—along with areas of fog—is likely and temperatures will dip to around 40, according to the National Weather Service.

And that is about where the temperature is going to stay during the day on Monday.

The difference will be rain and wind. Think wind chills.

Bill Potter of Hudson Valley Weather said not only will the area see rain through much of the day, but there will be cold air coming in as well.

“That means Monday will struggle to see temps break much into the 40s,” he said. “In fact, temps could drop during the day, and get stuck in the upper 30s with a cold rain. Needless to say, Monday is looking very raw and damp.”

The chance of rain continues into Tuesday, though the temperature will climb into the mid-50s.

Chances of rain exist for Wednesday and Thursday so keep that umbrella handy.
