Friday's opening shot

Today's St. Mark's Place sunrise ... as the Labor Day Weekend officially gets underway.

Most everyone has likely already left for Kellerman's Mountain House.

Around here, expect a mix of sun and clouds with an ick of humidity. The weather folks expect more comfortable conditions moving into the long weekend.

Early morning views today from Tompkins Square Park... and along Avenue A...

It will remain mostly sunny and cold today with highs in the mid-30s, though the wind chill will make it feel more like 15, give or take a few degrees. 

A wintry mix of rain-sleet-snow is expected overnight into your Saturday. High alert for slippery spots on the street and sidewalks.

The wind chill is in the teens now (17)... otherwise, the sun is giving way to clouds this afternoon. High of 35. Maybe.

As for your exclusive July 4orecast (sorry), sunny and pleasant today (lower humidity) with a high of 83. The UV Index is 10, so lather on that tanning butter or cooking oil sunscreen with an SPF of 30 or higher in the great outdoors.

A sunrise view from Astor Place looking across Stuyvesant Street, the only street in Manhattan that runs true west to east. 

As for the weather, overcast and muggy, with showers and scattered thunderstorms this morning into the afternoon. 

As for the Belmont Stakes (at Saratoga again this year), the track is expected to be wet, perhaps even sloppy. Kentucky Derby winner Sovereignty and Preakness Stakes victor Journalism meet again. Five weeks ago at Churchill Downs, Sovereignty edged out Journalism on a rain-soaked track in the Run for the Roses, as we cut-n-paste from elsewhere.
