Hilda's Forecast: Beautiful week ahead with more sunshine on the way

NJFORECAST

It's a beautiful day today. If you're planning to spend any time outside, it's just gorgeous. Look at these beautiful icons and fair weather clouds are possible later this afternoon, but these temperatures are screaming a little bit of a taste of summer. Still kind of dwindling on. If you are heading to the Giants game tonight against the Seahawks, you'll notice 80 degrees. It will feel nice and warm for kickoff until getting there before and heading home. You'll notice a little bit more of a chill and of course more seasonal types of temperatures as far as weather headlines go. We are definitely in this warm up for the next three days. Muted blue skies will continue with us with that haze dwindling down and dripping, filtering from the Canadian wildfire later this afternoon. Things will continue to thicken across the entire tri state, especially you Jersey. But things really do improve when we're talking about tomorrow, Tuesday, sunny and warm. That's the conditions that will continue to persist. The rain truly holds off until later this week and to the weekend, you might want to have plan B just in case sixties heading into 10 o'clock and as you wake up tomorrow, we're in the fifties. It feels great and seasonal. But that.

I'm so my state meteorologist Julian with your tri state weather updates as we get into the next several days. Here's some things that we'll need to know and that's pretty much that we are looking at some hazy skies that will be lingering throughout much of the tri state, especially for the lower Hudson Valley and towards NYC and for parts of Long Island. But next week, it's gonna be sunny and dry, but then we're looking for some rain to return as a cold front moves its way in by the time we roll into our late Thursday, early Friday. So as of right now, we're looking at a stretch of weather that's not only going to be dry but rather sunny, however, because of this ridging action. Thanks to this high pressure system over towards Canada, we have some wildfires that are going off that are starting to make their way into the tri states, which is producing some hazy conditions for us over the next few days as we roll into the early start of our work week. So for Monday, outside of the hazy skies expect plenty of sunshine throughout the tri states. We're not looking for any issues in regards to any rainfall or any kind of, uh, anything else that's gonna be really detrimental for us over the next couple of days. Tuesday, plenty of sunshine even more. So for Wednesday than Thursday, we are looking for cloud cover to start to develop, especially for Thursday nights with Friday bringing in some rain changes for us into the tri state. So for Monday, temperatures will be to the upper and middle seventies rather mild for many of us, we're gonna see Monday and Tuesday be very similar except for pushing near 80 for many of us, especially towards Jersey NYC and even for Bridgeport and Connecticut, where we're looking at those lower eighties to stick around for us, then cooling down. Once we go into our Thursday, we're gonna start our cooler trend heading into our Friday where we are gonna be expecting to see some rain chances for many of us into the tri state. Now, for our 10 day forecast as of right now, again, that dry and warm trend is going to stick around for the next several days. But then once we go on the Friday, it's gonna be a bit cooler heading into the weekend and then fall really will start to move its way in into the lower sixties for the following week. But our best opportunity for some rain will be for Friday and Saturday.
