The weather is supposed to be beautiful this weekend in the neighborhood (High of 88 degrees and sunny both days). And a heat wave is on its away next week, so enjoy it while you can!

If you do one thing outside this weekend…

Check out a free multicultural concert in Riverside Park Saturday night at 7 p.m. Efendi, headed by Scott Wilson playing his unique “Baglama Hydra“—a combination oud, saz, and bouzouki—perform music from Turkey, Armenia, Israel, and Greece. It’s on the lawn just north of the 96th Street tennis courts.

If you do one thing inside this weekend…

Watch the U.S. women take on the Japanese team in the World Cup! One more chance to watch soccer before you forget about it for the next two or three years. On ESPN at 2:45 p.m. Sunday.

For more great local events, check out our weekly calendar. And if you’re hungry and don’t mind lines, go to the 15th anniversary celebration at Magnolia Bakery on 69th Street and Columbus!

If you’re traveling…

Check traffic info at traffic.com for delays. As for the subway, the 2 and 3 are running local from Chambers to 96th Street. For more, check mta.info.
