It is going to be another up-and-down week of weather across the lower Hudson Valley. Today is just a gloomy day with off and on light rain showers.
Tomorrow morning will be impacted by a quick, but heavy at times, round of rain. A rumble of thunder is possible tomorrow morning along with slower than usual travel for the morning commute.
Tomorrow afternoon will be much better and then the rest of the week will be nicer overall. You will likely notice a little bit of haze moving back tomorrow evening. This is from Canadian wildfire smoke again and can linger through at least Thursday. At this time, it is not expected to dramatically impact air quality, but the News 12 Storm Watch Team will monitor this for you through the week.
It also becomes much warmer for Wednesday through Friday with high temperatures back in the 80s along with moderate humidity for Thursday and Friday.
The streak of weekends with some sort of rain looks like it will continue this weekend unfortunately, too. Scattered rain is likely on Saturday with an isolated shower on Father's Day.
Have a great Monday!
