Written by LANNING TALIAFERRO (Patch Staff)

The summer heat and humidity of last week fell away over the weekend and will stay away through the week ahead in Westchester County.

“Some much cooler temperatures remain locked in the Hudson Valley…,” said Bill Potter of Hudson Valley Weather.

That’s much cooler: only up to the mid-70s by Friday.

It’ll be wet, to start out—a Flash Flood Watch was issued at 4:20 a.m. Monday through Tuesday evening—clearing up at midweek with clouds returning at the end of the work week.
