NYC Weather Today, June 3, 2026: Sunny and Warm Across All Five Boroughs
New York City is getting a beautiful early-summer Wednesday. The National Weather Service forecast issued at 3:08 AM today calls for sunny skies and warm temperatures across all five boroughs — a welcome stretch of good weather as the school year winds down and New Yorkers head outdoors.
No watches, warnings, or advisories are in effect for New York City today.
Today’s Borough-by-Borough Forecast
The warmest readings will be in Staten Island and Manhattan, where highs reach the mid 80s. The Bronx, Brooklyn, and Northern Queens come in at the lower 80s. Southern Queens, closest to the coast and catching more of the northeast sea breeze, will be slightly cooler at the upper 70s.

NYC DOE Schools: Regular School Day

Alternate Side Parking: IN EFFECT
Alternate side parking rules are in full effect citywide today. June 3 is not among the 2026 suspension holidays listed by NYC DOT. Check your block’s ASP schedule and move your car on time. DSNY street cleaning operations are running normally. The next scheduled ASP suspension is Friday, June 19 for Juneteenth.
DSNY Garbage Collection: Normal Schedule
Garbage and recycling collection is running on the regular Wednesday schedule. No weather-related delays are expected.
Resident Decisions Today
- If you bike: Today is an excellent biking day. Dry pavement, light winds, and sunny skies — ideal conditions for the full network, including the new protected lanes on Queens Boulevard.
- If you’re driving: ASP is in effect — move your car. No weather-related traffic complications expected, but normal midday congestion applies.
- If you’re heading to a park: Get outside. Prospect Park, Central Park, Flushing Meadows-Corona Park, and Pelham Bay Park are all in prime condition.
- If you have a roof-top, balcony, or outdoor restaurant reservation: Go for it. Clear skies hold all day and well into the evening.
- Sun protection: UV index will be high for early June. Apply sunscreen before extended outdoor time, especially between noon and 3 PM.
Looking Ahead
Thursday brings more of the same — sunny skies and upper 80s heading toward 90°F territory in some boroughs. Friday could push into the lower 90s. A pattern change arrives Sunday, when showers and thunderstorms are likely (70% chance) as a front pushes through.
