NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ALBANY NY
247 PM EDT Sun Sep 22 2024

.DISCUSSION...
Mainly sunny and pleasant for this first day of autumn before
clouds increase tomorrow with cooling temperatures. Then, our
long stretch of dry weather ends by the middle of the workweek
as a disturbance from the Midwest directs periods of rain into
the region Tuesday night through Thursday. Unsettled conditions
may continue into Friday but the forecast remains uncertain.
