First Alert Weather: An October gem this weekend in NYC - 10/4/24

NEW YORK -- The weekend forecast looks perfect for fall fun around New York and New Jersey -- from apple picking, to leaf peeping and more.

We have a little hiccup on our hands Friday night, but you can put those umbrellas down Saturday morning and let the fall activities commence!

If you recall, last weekend was damp, dark and dreary. This weekend, however, is shaping up to be an absolute delight from start to finish.

So, whether you're heading the coast, the city or the mountains — wherever your adventures take you — we've got your covered.

Perfect weekend for the farm and flannel

Thinking of doing a trip to the farm on Saturday? Don't forget, apple and pumpkin picking is hard work when it's 75 degrees and sunny, so think removable layers and sunglasses.

Itching for even more fall spirit? We'd suggest making plans on Sunday, too. The reason being that morning temperatures will only be in the 50s and 40s — perfect for throwing on that new flannel or sweater.

Prefer it slightly warmer, but not too warm? Well, you're in luck, because temperatures will only spike at around 70 degrees that afternoon.

As far as leaf peeping goes, your best bet is to head toward the Catskills, where we're getting reports of moderate to high fall colors. If you're feeling more adventurous, Lake Placid or even Stowe would offer spectacular visuals, as they're approaching peak season.

Get outside and enjoy!
