New Yorkers can expect a pleasantly sunny Fourth of July, the National Weather Service said.

The sun was shining Monday morning and temperatures were expected to reach into the mid-80s by the afternoon, according to the NWS.

Rain, and possibly thunderstorms, is expected after 10 p.m. Monday, but there is a chance it could start earlier. 

The Macy’s Fourth of July fireworks show is expected to start at 9:20 p.m. Monday, but would be rescheduled for Tuesday if there is inclement weather.
