Hermine, Then Heat: Work Week Weather for Brewster

BREWSTER, NY — First, what's left of once-hurricane Hermine.

The NWS said at 7:06AM Monday that Hermine is about 150 miles east-southeast Of New York City or about 100 miles south Of Montauk Point. The storm's intensity is 65 mph and it is moving west at about 8 mph.

The worst conditions it will bring to the Hudson Valley work week will be through Wednesday night, in southeastern New England and eastern Long Island where gusts could exceed 40 mph, AccuWeather meteorologists said. Gusts along the coast could bring down weaker trees and cause additional sporadic power outages.

Then we move on: to temperatures that could be 10-15 degrees above average!

"And by Thursday, temps will soar back into the 90s… with increasing humidity… making for a very uncomfortable feel across the Hudson Valley," said Bill Potter of Hudson Valley Weather. "Our work week starts off cool and sub-tropical… and will become hot and humid by late week. Lots of variety for the 1st full week of September."
