The warm stretch won’t last and the next change is a big one

Wednesday brings us another day of 70-plus-degree weather and near-record highs. Enjoy. On Thursday, we’ll be around 50.

Fortunately, that chill won’t last long. Showers and thunderstorms are expected to overspread the New York City area late Wednesday afternoon into the evening. Thunder is possible in and around the area. Some spots, mainly in southern New Jersey, could see isolated pockets of severe storms.

After the heavy rain moves out, much cooler, occasionally damp, weather settles in for Thursday.

On Friday, we bounce back up temperature-wise, and the weather should stay dry — an ideal setup for the Yankees’ home opener against the Miami Marlins.

Saturday is a must-be-outside kind of day, with highs in the 70s and ample sunshine. Clouds return on Easter Sunday, and the second half of the day should be unsettled and a bit rainy. No severe weather is expected.

And fear not: The temperature story gets a lot less dramatic next week.
