Staying warm but rain returns later Friday

SYRACUSE, NY (WSYR-TV) – Syracuse had its first dry day in a week Thursday! However, it looks like showers are quick to return. Check out the latest details below.

Sun doesn’t last Friday

Don’t count of any morning sunshine to stick around much throughout the day. But at least we’re keeping it rain-free throughout the day.

It’s a little hotter too. Highs could make a run at 80 Friday afternoon.

As we get closer to sunset our chances for rain go back up as the next front gets ready to sweep across the area Friday night into Saturday morning.

Weekend looking better

The front that brings us some late day showers Friday is falling apart by Saturday as high pressure at the surface is building in. With the front still close by (although weakened) we are going to keep some showers in for Saturday, especially in the morning, along with a good deal of clouds.

As high pressure begins to build in, we would expect a drier afternoon with sunshine gradually mixing in with the clouds.

For Sunday it continues to look dry as high pressure holds into early next week so too should the dry weather.

This more optimistic forecast calls for more sunshine too, which should help push temperatures to 80 degrees or better from Sunday into the middle of next week. It will be an early taste of summer weather for central New York!
