Good morning, New York. Here’s what you need to know today.
Your Weather Planner
A much warmer day is here with south breezes, variable clouds and more dry than wet time as a couple of brief, passing showers and storms could hit today. Highs should top out in the 60s in the North Country to 70s in Central New York and the Southern Tier. We have another mild forecast Saturday with hit or miss showers, then tomorrow night into Sunday turns wet. Most rain and storms exit the area by late morning to the early afternoon on Easter Sunday with a cooler and brisk feel.
