Residents of three States – new York, new Jersey and Connecticut – will be able to take a little break from the heat! But unfortunately for many lovers of active rest on the nature, heavy rains this weekend will need to engage in a favorite pastime, because the rains will not only lead to cooler temperatures and possible flooding.

Widely scattered heavy rains already began on Friday (10 August) in the evening and increased during the night at that time, as the temperature sometimes dropped to 60°F (15-21°C).

Saturday showers can become even stronger, especially in the second half of the day. A mix of wind from the ocean and clouds will keep the temperature between 80°F (26°C).
