Thunderstorms Possible to Kick Off Weekend Weather

Unseasonable warmth Friday will end overnight. Scattered showers as a cold front moves into our region could become more intense as the day progresses.

“By the evening commute… a downpour, even a thundershower, can’t be ruled out as the front moves thru,” said Bill Potter of Hudson Valley Weather. “The Friday evening commute could be a tricky one, so be prepared for the likelihood of rain showers.”

Once that leading edge passes, look for sunny skies Saturday and Sunday.

A classic autumn weekend for leaf peeping, as colors have been changing rapidly.

The cold front will bring more seasonable temperatures, sorry--and that means that early mornings and late evenings will be chilly, according to AccuWeather meteorologist Becky Elliott.

“Fans heading to the Giants versus 49ers game on Sunday evening will want to wear a jacket. Temperatures will be in the lower 60s at kickoff but will drop into the upper 50s by the end of the game.”
