5/27 CBS2 Friday Afternoon & Holiday Weekend Weather

By Mark McIntyre, CBS2 Meteorologist/Weather Producer

Happy Friday, everybody! Expect another hot day across the area with more humidity! Temps will be a few degrees cooler than yesterday, but it'll feel just as hot - we're going with a high of 85 in NYC, some lower 90s inland, and much cooler for the beaches. A few pop-up storms are possible this afternoon, but not a washout.

Afternoon Headlines

Now for the all important holiday weekend forecast! Saturday & Sunday can be summed up with two words - HOT & HUMID. Temps close to 90 both days in NYC, lower 90s inland, and cooler for the coasts. There will be a few isolated showers possible each day, but the greater concern will be rip currents & rough seas at the area beaches...UV index will be very high as well, so lather up with the sunscreen!

Afternoon Beach

Temps get knocked down to the upper 70s on Memorial Day, and at this point it does look like there will be more in the way of showers. Still, let's not forget the true meaning of the day, and make the best of it no matter the weather. Have a great weekend!
