The afternoon high temperature today was around 88 degrees. You'd think an afternoon high in the upper 80s would break a record, but we missed that mark by a full 8 degrees. The record was set in 2019 at 96 degrees.
The warm, humid air will be displaced by a slow-moving weather system later on tonight. Scattered showers are possible, but the rain will not be anything too substantial.
What this system lacks in rain, it will make up for in cooler temperatures. Our first real shot at autumn air is on the way. Temperatures will be 10 to 15 degrees cooler on Saturday with mainly sunny skies.
Sunday looks overcast with winds from the northeast. There will be waves of rain running from Maryland and Delaware up into southern and coastal New Jersey on Sunday. Will it be soaking rains? No. But expect on-and-off showers for much of the day there. North of Route 72 and west of Interstate 287, I would be shocked if the wet weather made it that far north and west, but you should probably plan for a periodic sprinkle or two.
The real shot of "fall" air arrives Tuesday and Wednesday mornings. Northwest neighborhoods could be looking at the first real shot at widespread frost.
