Could it be… a rain-free week?!
If it doesn’t rain in the Hudson Valley on Sunday afternoon and the entire week ends up being dry, then the region will reach a 13-day dry streak — the longest in over a year, since September 2025.
Not too shabby, especially considering that many days this week will feature plenty of sunshine and low humidity.
That’s why I’m calling it the nicest forecast of the year, a description that I don’t use lightly!
The main weather storyline involves a cold front on Monday, whose brisk winds will usher an air mass from Canada. Temperatures are expected to drop into the 30s for the first time since May early Tuesday and Wednesday.
My advice? Enjoy the dry weather and sunshine while it’s around. At some point in the months ahead, probably during November, a shift toward stormier conditions is expected. I’ll tell that story in my winter outlook, which I expect to release to premium subscribers on Saturday, October 24. Click the button below to receive it!
The week ahead
There will be plenty of sunshine and dry weather this week, but wind too.
Monday: it will be sunny, but turn windy as a cold front sweeps through
Tuesday: a cool morning; hardly a cloud in the sky
Wednesday: another chilly morning followed by a warmer, breezy afternoon
Thursday: warming up some more; breezy
Friday: remaining decent; a front passing to the north could kick up the winds
Saturday-Sunday: Saturday looks great; Sunday might feature increasing clouds as a storm builds well to the south, but that’s uncertain
Looking ahead to the week of October 12, that storm could move toward the region, but it’s not set in stone. Temperatures generally look warmer than average.
Enjoy this wave of good weather ✌️
Perfect!
