NYC Weather Alert: Severe Storms Predicted for Saturday

New York City Faces Unsettled Weather: Showers and Thunderstorms Expected Saturday New York, NY (June 7, 2025) – New Yorkers should brace for unsettled weather conditions today, June 7th, with AccuWeather forecasting rounds of showers and thunderstorms. Lee Goldberg, meteorologist for ABC 7 New York, warned of an "unsettled Saturday" in his latest AccuWeather Quickcast. According to Goldberg, the storms are expected to primarily affect northern and western parts of the city. "They're mainly north and west," he stated in the video, "there is the threat of an isolated severe storm, some gusty winds, heavy downpours." He added that while a shower could sneak into other boroughs, the Bronx has a higher chance of experiencing precipitation than Staten Island or Brooklyn. The forecast predicts waves of showers throughout the day, with the most likely period between late morning and early afternoon. Goldberg advised viewers to have an umbrella and a plan to get inside during heavy downpours. He also noted that Sunday's forecast looks better, with filtered sunshine and more comfortable temperatures in the mid-70s. The forecast provides a much-needed heads-up for New Yorkers planning outdoor activities this weekend, allowing them to adjust their plans accordingly.
