Will it rain during the Knicks championship parade on Thursday?
FOX 5 Meteorologist Audrey Puente breaks down this week's forecast, including possible showers during Thursday's parade.
NEW YORK CITY - Knicks fans are gearing up for a historic parade through the Canyon of Heroes on Thursday, but you might want to bring some rain gear along with your blue and orange.
What we know:
While the start of the week brings clear skies and comfortable temperatures, the big weather question for the week revolves around Thursday, the day New York City officially celebrates the Knicks' victory.
A cold front is expected to move through the area on Thursday, making showers likely.
FOX 5 NY's Mike Woods is hopeful that the rain will hold off until the second half of the day, which would allow the 10 a.m. parade to roll up Broadway without a hitch. However, those planning to line the streets should be prepared for wet conditions.
Grab your ponchos, get out there, and cheer on the Knicks!
