Boro Park Weekly Weather: A Wintry Purim

By Y.M. Lowy

Monday, Taanis Esther, will be cold and cloudy with a high of 27° and a low of 24°. There’s a chance of rain in the afternoon. Bundle up when you’re headed out.

Tuesday is Purim, and the forecast is keeping things interesting. The high will reach 38° with a low of 36°. There’s a chance of snow and sleet in the afternoon, which means costumes might need an extra layer underneath. A little wintry mix won’t stop the mishloach manos runs or the music, but it could add some slippery spots, so plan accordingly.

Wednesday climbs to a high of 42° with a low of 35°. Expect some drizzle on and off in the morning, followed by a mostly cloudy day.

Thursday continues the gray stretch with a high of 46° and a low of 41°. Skies stay cloudy, but temperatures slowly edge up.
