More Thunderstorms: Pelham's Weekend Weather

PELHAM, NY — The mini-heat wave continues on Friday and once again there is a chance for thunderstorms late this afternoon and evening across the Hudson Valley. And if you have outdoor plans this weekend, and we know you want to get outside, Saturday is by far the better day as we could see rain and cloudy skies on Sunday.

"In the wake of Friday’s gusty storms, showers are expected to spread across the northeastern United States this weekend," said AccuWeather senior meteorologist Kristina Pydynowski. "Outdoor plans will once again be in jeopardy, especially on Sunday."

Temperatures will still be above normal Saturday, according to the National Weather Service. Then they will drop more on Sunday to "seasonable levels."
