Enjoy the seasonal and mild weather across the Bronx and Brooklyn through Sunday. While the temperatures are pleasant, stay alert as breezes reaching up to 25 mph have triggered an elevated fire risk for local parks and brush areas. Please be extremely cautious with any open flames. If you're heading out to the botanical gardens or the boardwalk early Sunday morning, prepare for one last chilly snap as temperatures drop into the 30s or near 40.

The chill won't last long, however, as a late-season heat wave is set to kick in from Monday through Wednesday. Temperatures are expected to soar into the upper 70s, potentially hitting the 80 in some of the more urban stretches of the borough. While the News 12 Storm Watch Team is still gauging whether the week will offer more sun or clouds, the forecast remains largely dry, with only a slight chance of a passing shower on Monday and again on Friday.

THE FORECAST:

OVERNIGHT: Mostly clear. Lows in the mid- to upper 30s.

SUNDAY: A mix of sun and clouds, with mild temperatures. Highs in the low 60s. Lows in the mid-40s.

MONDAY: Mostly cloudy, with a chance of spotty to scattered showers. Highs in the low 70s. Lows in the upper 50s.
