Checking the Weather Before Your Socially Distanced Walk with a Friend

New York City Weather Conditions

Updated on Saturday at 9 A.M.

Sunny with a high near seventy-two. Perfect for that socially distanced walk you’re taking this afternoon with your only friend in the neighborhood!

Updated on Saturday at 9:30 A.M.

Sunny with a high near seventy-two and clear skies. Text your friend now to confirm the plan!

Updated on Saturday at 10 A.M.

Actually, partly cloudy with a high near seventy-two. Forty-per-cent chance of showers in the afternoon. Hmm. Chance of walk: fifty per cent.

Updated on Saturday at 10:30 A.M.

Welp. All cloudy now, with a high near eighty—muggy, overcast, gray, dispiriting. But you can still go if you want. In these times, we all need human connection.

Updated on Saturday at 11 A.M.

Slow-moving cold front is expected to bring thunderstorms to the area in fifteen minutes, and also torrential rainfall, flooding, and gale-force winds. These conditions will continue for the next five days. Cancel all walks with friends.

Updated on Saturday at 11:30 A.M.

The storm should be coming any minute now.

Updated on Saturday at 12 P.M.

Hang on.

Updated on Saturday at 12:30 P.M.

Whoops! No more storm. Sorry—is your friend still available?

Updated on Saturday at 1 P.M.

Remember, you live by yourself. Walks are all you have! It took you months even to get comfortable with meeting another person for a walk at a distance! The weather’s fine, partly cloudy, etc.

Updated on Saturday at 1:30 P.M.

More clouds. What did she say?

Updated on Saturday at 2 P.M.

Partly sunny with a high of seventy-two. I know, I also hate this. Total and utter whiplash at a time when people already feel destabilized! I’m sorry. Is your friend free now, though? Oh, you didn’t text her because you don’t want to be annoying, going back and forth with plans? Because, even if it’s sunny now, I might say there will be another storm as soon as you agree to meet up? O.K. Well, you’ll be staying inside for a long time. Because I have received new data, and it seems that there will be thunderstorms and hail every day until we develop a vaccine. There might be one rainbow, but I’m not sure. My rainbow projections have been off lately. What are you planning on doing this afternoon instead?

Updated on Saturday at 2:30 P.M.

Partly sunny with a high of seventy-two. What about trying out needlepoint? I’m sorry!

Updated on Saturday at 3 P.M.

You could go for a walk alone. I really don’t think there are going to be any storms.

Updated on Saturday at 3:30 P.M.

Never mind!

Updated on Saturday at 4 P.M.

Just stay inside. Why don’t you see if your friend is free tomorrow at 5:30 A.M., when there are never any storms.

Updated on Saturday at 4:30 P.M.

Yeah, I think tomorrow at 5:30 A.M. should be good. From 6:30 to 6:45 A.M. it should be totally clear, as well. Great—it’s a plan. I texted the details to your friend.

Updated on Saturday at 5 P.M.

Don’t worry, you can definitely meet your friend for a walk tomorrow. Looks like it’s going to be sunny with a high of seventy-two. I swear!
