With a stretch of mostly settled weather coming up for the Hudson Valley and some new climate model data fresh off the press, it feels like a good time to look farther ahead 🔮

By now, you’ve almost certainly heard about El Niño, a warming of the ocean waters in the equatorial Pacific Ocean that is now nearing all-time record levels — considering records dating back to around 1850.

This will have a notable effect on the Hudson Valley’s weather from late fall through winter and spring, probably making it stormier.

But before we get to that, let’s take a quick look at the week ahead. It gets an “A” for awesome!

Monday: superb with low humidity and plenty of sunshine ☀️

Tuesday: mostly sunny and a bit warmer than Monday

Wednesday: warm with sun and increasing clouds and humidity; some rain possible at night

Thursday: warm and humid with a passing shower or thunderstorm possible

Friday: amazing weather — low humidity and wall-to-wall sunshine

Saturday-Sunday: looking good for now, warming up with a good deal of sunshine

Looking ahead to the week of September 14, it could be quite warm to start. Conditions look to generally lean drier than normal.

As for the weather through the end of the year…
