May weather in NY city
 
Just wanter to get some idea what is the weather like towards the end of May in NYC.<BR>Is it a rainy season?

May in New York is like May anywhere in the Northeast US: changeable. Go to worldclimate.com for info. Average temp in May is 61°F, with an average maximum of 71°F and an average minimum of 53°F. Average rainfall is 3.9 inches, the 7th highest rainfall out of the 12 months.

Weatherwise, that's one of the best times of the year to be in New York.

Went 2 years ago over the Mother's Day weekend and it was in the 90's. We had dressed too warmly.

Two years in a row temps were over 90 when we visited at the end of May (only one evening of rain). You just never know.

. www.weather underground.com and www.weather.com both have a weather history area on their sites. Either a day by day or a graph representing each month with lines for average highs and lows and the real unusual highs and lows.Also rainfall amounts and humidity<BR>Of course it can change in matter of hours...
