However, the days leading up will be mainly sunny and pleasant, including Tuesday, July 2, and Wednesday, July 3, according to the National Weather Service.
The high temperature will be in the low 80s on both days.
It will be partly sunny during the morning and the early afternoon on Thursday, July 4, Independence Day.
High humidity will make conditions ripe for thunderstorms, which will be possible, along with showers, from the early afternoon through the evening.
Storms are less likely farther east, including eastern Long Island and eastern New England.
But even in areas where storms are less likely, viewing conditions for July 4th fireworks displays in the Northeast will be fair to poor. (See the image above from AccuWeather.com.)
Friday, July 5, will be mostly cloudy and warm.
The high temperature will be in the upper 80s to around 90 degrees, and scattered showers are expected from the afternoon through the evening.
Scattered thunderstorms are also possible during that time frame.
The next round of showers and storms is likely on Saturday, July 6, with the time frame starting in the early to mid-afternoon and lasting through the early evening.
The high temperature on Saturday will be in the low to mid-80s with mostly cloudy skies.
