Synopsis:
On and off rain will continue today as low pressure grazes the NJ coast.The rain will be heavy at times over parts of the NYC vicinity this morning. The rain will become lighter and more intermittent during the afternoon. It’ll be chilly with a gusty wind off the cold Atlantic. Much of the region will experience over an inch of rain by this evening. Parts of NYC and coastal NJ will receive upwards of two inches (map above).
A brief break in the rain will occur in the rain tonight into Sunday morning. But a second storm- round 2, will develop on the heels of the first storm over the Southeast and ride up the Piedmont later Sunday afternoon and night. The morning will be mainly dry. Rain will move in during the afternoon and become steadier by mid to later afternoon. Rain is likely Sunday night as the storm deepens considerably over our area.
We’ll get to dry out on Monday behind the deepening storm to our North. The sun will finally return.
An upper level low will move over the region on Tuesday with scattered showers and unseasonably cool temperatures.
Stay tuned.
