Synopsis:.
The storm over the South will become a Nor’easter for our area as it rides along the coast and intensifies Monday. It’ll become breezy later tonight with spotty showers.
Areas of rain is expected for the morning commute with increasing Northeast winds. The brunt of the storm will be Mid-day into the evening on Monday. Wind gusts up to 65mph are possible along the coast. A High Wind Warning is in effect for the entire coast and all of New York City for Monday. One to three inches of rain is possible. A Flash Flood Watch is up for most of the tri-state area. Coastal flooding is possible at the times of high tide. The pattern is garbage for any snow to fall in the immediate area, key factors are missing. There is a slight chance of wet snow or sleet well inland over the higher elevations of Sussex county NJ, the Poconos and Catskills Monday afternoon and night. An accumulation of snow and sleet is possible. Winter Storm Watch and Advisories have been posted (this is said with low confidence). The storm will pull away Monday night and Tuesday with on and off rain expected.
A more Winter-like pattern looks to be in the cards for the end of January and into February. Stay Tuned.
