Rain & Wind Take Over Sunday, But Here’s When Rensselaer Hits the 60s!

Spring is playing games with us again! This weekend kicks off with a rainy, windy Sunday that feels more like winter, but don’t worry—by Tuesday, we’ll be soaking up sunshine and 60-degree warmth!

Let’s break it down so you know exactly what to expect and when to plan for the best weather this week.

Sunday: Rain, Wind, and a Whole Lot of Yuck

If you were hoping for a bright and cheery Sunday, I’ve got bad news. It’s going to be gray, wet, and windy—basically, the perfect excuse to stay inside.

Sunday, March 9
High: 42°F (6°C)
Low: 31°F (0°C)
Steady rain throughout the day, tapering off by evening.
Gusty winds up to 30 mph, making it feel even colder.

What This Means for You:

Grab an umbrella AND a raincoat. The wind is strong enough to turn your umbrella inside out.
If you’re driving, take it slow. Wet roads, reduced visibility, and gusty winds will make for less-than-ideal travel conditions.
Outdoor plans? Not today. Maybe swap that hike for a Netflix binge.

Monday: A Much-Needed Break from the Gloom

Just one day after Sunday’s mess, things will clear up, and the warming trend will begin.

Monday, March 10
High: 50°F (10°C)
Low: 29°F (-2°C)
Mostly sunny with a crisp, cool feel.

What to Expect:
A dry, pleasant start to the workweek. Still a little chilly, but the sunshine makes all the difference!
You’ll still need a jacket, but at least you won’t be battling wind and rain.

Tuesday & Wednesday: Finally, That First Real Taste of Spring!

By midweek, you’ll want to ditch the heavy coats because spring will finally feel real.

Tuesday, March 11
High: 66°F (19°C)
Low: 35°F (1°C)
Bright, sunny, and absolutely beautiful.

Wednesday, March 12
High: 56°F (13°C)
Low: 37°F (3°C)
A few clouds roll in, but still mild and comfortable.

Best Days for Outdoor Plans:
Tuesday is the jackpot! If you’ve been itching to get outside, this is your day.
Even Wednesday is nice—just with a bit more cloud cover.

Rest of the Week: Holding Onto That Spring Feel

The spring-like warmth sticks around, with no major storms in sight!

Thursday, March 13
High: 56°F (14°C)
Low: 44°F (6°C)
Clouds mix with sun, staying mild.

Friday, March 14
High: 55°F (13°C)
Low: 36°F (2°C)
Plenty of sunshine—another nice day.

Saturday, March 15
High: 54°F (12°C)
Low: 48°F (9°C)
Mostly cloudy but still feeling like spring.

Takeaway for the Rest of the Week:
No big storms, no freezing cold—just steady, mild weather.
A great week to start thinking about spring cleaning or getting outside.

Just Get Through Sunday, Then Enjoy the Warmth!

Sunday = Cold, rainy, and windy—just stay inside.
Monday = Sunshine returns, and things start warming up.
Tuesday & Wednesday = Finally, a true taste of spring!
Thursday-Saturday = Mild, comfortable, and no major surprises.

Moral of the story? Sunday is a mess, but the payoff is worth it. If you’ve been waiting for that first real stretch of spring weather, it’s coming this week!
