Weather models struggled the last few days with the placement of steady, heavy rain for the upcoming week. What looked like a decent pattern for rain in our area is now evolving into one where the bulk of much-needed precipitation stays mainly offshore.
Clouds come in late tonight and winds turn onshore, making it a cool week overall.

We'll remain basically dry Monday, but then a few showers are possible area-wide on Tuesday. By Wednesday, a coastal storm will pass offshore, with areas over eastern Long Island and Connecticut seeing the best chance of a soaking rain.
NYC and points north and west get fringe effects.

Meanwhile, the short-term drought should continue.
After Wednesday, our next best chance of rain looks to arrive late in the weekend; expect humidity levels to come back up starting Thursday, but fair skies should largely prevail through Sunday of next weekend.
