Pelham Weather Forecast: Enjoy It While You Can

Written by BRIAN MCCREADY (Patch Staff)

Don’t look now but today may be the best remaining weather day of the year from a temperature standpoint.

Yesterday’s weather was simply amazing too with sunny skies and 70 degrees. We’re headed toward another great almost summer-like day with temps approaching the low to mid 70s in Westchester County, and after today, well, reality returns.

It’s quite possible this is the last day until sometime next spring that we’ll be above 70 degrees. So if you can, head out of work for a walk today or sit outside to eat, or just do something to get yourself outside and enjoy the warm temperatures before they are gone.

In looking at the National Weather Service’s 7-day forecast, temps appear seasonal beginning on Friday with highs in the 50s for the foreseeable future.

We could even be near or below freezing in parts of the county on Friday night.

Here is the detailed forecast from the NWS for today through the weekend:

Today: Partly sunny with isolated showers. Highs in the mid 70s. Southwest winds 5 to 10 mph. Gusts up to 20 mph this afternoon. Chance of rain 20 percent.

Friday: Sunny. Cooler with highs in the upper 50s. North winds 10 to 15 mph.

Saturday: Sunny. Highs in the upper 50s. Northeast winds around 5 mph...becoming southeast in the afternoon.

Sunday: Mostly cloudy. A chance of showers in the morning. Highs in the lower 60s. Chance of rain 40 percent.

Monday: Mostly sunny. Highs in the upper 50s.

As of right now next week looks seasonal with temps in the 50s.

Again, if you can, enjoy the 70s today!
