Sct’d Showers/Storms Through Midday Friday. Local Downpours South…

Synopsis:

Another weak disturbance to our South will move through our area tonight and for the first half of Friday. This will result in unsettled weather for parts of the region. The best chance of scattered showers and storms will be from the NYC vicinity and to the South. Some of the rain maybe torrential at times. Since the ground is saturated from recent rains from Tropical Storm Isaias it won’t take that much rain to causes some flooding issues. A Flash Flood Watch is in effect Central and Southern NJ. The activity will become more isolated during the afternoon and some sun may shine. It will be cool for early August.

The pesky disturbance will move off the coast Saturday morning. Clouds will give way to a brighter afternoon. Readings will be a few degrees below the average high of the mid 80s. Sunday will be the better half of the weekend. High pressure will move in. Abundant sunshine and warm readings is expected.

It will turn hot and humid for the beginning of the week.

Stay Tuned.
