The Hudson Valley Could Experience Record Highs This Week

It's officially Autumn but it looks like Summer is going to be hanging around a bit longer.

Highs Sunday will reach about 90 degrees. According to Hudson Valley Weather, the all-time record high for this date was set in 1959 when it reached 91 F.  Lows will only reach the mid 60s as the humidity begins to rise.

Monday through Wednesday will be hot and humid with highs in the upper 80s and lows in the mid 60s. There is a chance of afternoon showers and thunderstorms each day. If we didn't know better, we'd say this the middle of June rather than late September.

Temperatures should cool off by the end of the week with highs in the 70s and lows in the upper 40s. Winds will shift to the north with lower humidity and bring more early Fall like weather to the region.

As far as Hurricane Maria goes...most meteorological forecasts say the storm will move north near the North Carolina coast before turning east and moving away from the U.S. Of course, it's still too ealry to tell, but it looks like the Northeast will dodge the bullet on this one.

Have a great week!
