It is a stormy start to the weekend, with a rainy Friday that could bring severe weather to the New York area.<\/p>\n

Showers will move through the area during the day. But the bigger concern is for the afternoon and evening commute. <\/p>\n

It is a First Alert Weather Day for the threat of severe thunderstorms. \u00a0<\/p>\n

The morning starts damp, with showers and a few isolated downpours.<\/p>\n

By lunchtime, things should settle down somewhat. Skies stay mostly cloudy, and while a stray shower is possible, much of the area should stay dry.<\/p>\n

The concern arrives later when isolated to scattered severe thunderstorms could develop as temperatures climb into the low and mid-70s in a warm, humid air mass. The main threat will be straight-line damaging winds, although an isolated tornado cannot be ruled out.<\/p>\n

Tonight, leftover showers and thunderstorms remain possible, especially south and east of New York City.<\/p>\n

Then the weekend brings a dramatic change.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Saturday will be chilly and blustery, with wind gusts of 25 to 35 mph, and highs only in the low to mid-50s, feeling more like November. Saturday night will be the coldest of the season, with the city around 40 degrees, our suburbs in the 30s, and the Catskills in the 20s.<\/p>\n
