STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. — Cooler than normal temperatures will persist across Staten Island Friday with highs reaching only around 60 degrees, according to the National Weather Service.
While no frost is expected on Staten Island on Friday night, temperatures will dip into the mid-40s under partly cloudy skies.
The National Weather Service indicates that Friday’s weather will feature less gusty winds compared to recent days as high pressure builds in from the Midwest. Some afternoon stratocumulus clouds are possible with temperatures running a few degrees below normal. While interior areas of the region may see frost development overnight, Staten Island and the New York City metro area will remain warmer with lows in the mid-40s.
Weekend temperatures will continue to run about five degrees below normal for late October. Saturday will see highs in the mid to upper 50s with a mix of sun and clouds, according to the National Weather Service. Sunday will be slightly cooler with highs only reaching the low to mid-50s. Light north to northwest winds are expected throughout the weekend.
The cooler pattern will persist into next week. Monday and Tuesday should remain dry with high temperatures in the mid-50s and overnight lows in the 40s. The National Weather Service forecast suggests a chance of precipitation developing late Tuesday into Wednesday as a low pressure system may develop over the mid-Atlantic states.
Looking ahead to the middle of next week, a low pressure system could bring precipitation to the area Tuesday night into Wednesday, though forecast models haven’t settled on a consistent solution yet. Temperatures are expected to remain below seasonal norms through at least Thursday.
