NYC Weather Today: Brace Yourself for a Scattered Thunderstorm Soiree!
Ah, New York City, the city that never sleeps... unless, of course, it's being pummeled by a good ol' fashioned thunderstorm. That's right, folks, today's weather forecast is a doozy – a sprinkle of sunshine mixed with a hefty dose of scattered thunderstorms.
So you're saying it might rain?
Bullseye! There's a good chance of rain starting around 4:00 pm and sticking around until the wee hours of Saturday morning (around 3:00 am). So, if you had plans for an outdoor romantic picnic under the twinkling city lights, you might want to swap those plans for an indoor cuddle puddle with a good movie.
Highs and Lows: A Tale of Two Cities (Within One City)
Don't let the rain dampen your spirits (pun intended)! The high for today is a pleasant 30°C (that's 86°F for our American friends), but with the humidity, it might feel a tad toasty – think 31°C (88°F). Don't worry, though, the low dips down to a cool 18°C (64°F), perfect for snuggling up after the storm passes.
Sunshine? Don't Forget Your Shades (For the Brief Moments You See It)
Now, let's not forget about the sunshine! There will be some peeks of the golden orb throughout the day, so if you do manage to snag some dry time, don't forget your shades. The UV index is a whopping 9, which means it's "very high" and ready to fry you faster than you can say "scattered thunderstorms."
Windy with a Chance of... Well, More Rain
And to complete this delightful weather smorgasbord, we have some gentle 13-km/h winds blowing in from the south. Think of it as nature's way of helping you decide which umbrella to bring – the sturdy one or the "oh crap, it's sprinkling" kind.
