Slight Warmup, Rain: Brewster's Weekend Weather

BREWSTER, NY — After a couple of days of record-breaking temperatures, the Hudson Valley will be warming up — slightly — for the weekend. The high Saturday for the lower Hudson Valley is forecast to be in the mid- to upper 40s, with the more northern locations in the low 40s.

And we are in for some precipitation as well, falling in the form of rain since temperatures are forecast to be above freezing even at night.

About the recent cold snap, though, Alex Marra and Bill Potter of Hudson Valley Weather said that records were broken, making this the second coldest November air mass on record in the Hudson Valley.

In Poughkeepsie, the record low of 6 degrees Friday morning broke a 1989 record of 9 degrees.

Thanksgiving Day's "high" temperature of 27 tied that of Thanksgiving Day in 1989.

Here is the forecast through the weekend from the National Weather Service for Putnam County.:

Partly sunny in the morning, then mostly cloudy with rain likely in the afternoon. Not as cool with highs in the lower 40s. Southeast winds around 5 mph. Chance of rain 60 percent.
