One More Hot One. Spotty PM Storms. Areas of Torrential Rain…

 

Synopsis:

The haze, heat and humidity will stick around through today. This is courtesy of a Bermuda high. A weak trough of low pressure will also be over the region causing scattered afternoon storms. The storms will be slow moving. This will result in torrential rain in spots. A Flash Flood Watch has been posted for areas just West of the City through this evening. Not all areas will get into the action. The storms will taper off this evening.

A cool front will approach on Thursday. Skies will be mainly cloudy . Temperatures will be cooler do to the clouds and scattered showers and storms expected.

Friday’s forecast has changed for the better. The front now looks to push offshore far enough to keep much of the rain to the South. Clouds will give way to sunshine with much lower levels of humidity.

The weekend is looking bright and comfortable with readings actually a couple degrees below the average of 83º. High pressure over Eastern Canada will be responsible for our August delight.

Stay Tuned.

Quick Hitting Tropical Storm Isaias Lashes the Area…

Synopsis:

***Tornado Watch for the entire area until 4pm. Keep an eye to the sky for threatening weather. A tornado watch means conditions are favorable for possible tornadoes. It does not mean that a tornado is happening***

Isaias will ride inland just East of the I-95 corridor and through our area today. The morning will feature areas of rain and storms mainly well West and North of the coast. Not much in the way of rain and wind is expected for the majority of the region. The brunt of Isaias will be from midday to early evening, around a six hour period. A round of heavy rain and Tropical Storm force winds will occur during this time.

Flooding is quite likely where the heavy bands set up. As of this writing the heaviest axis of rain looks to fall along and to the West of the storm track. A Flash Flood watch has been posted for Tuesday the possibility of 1″-4″+ of rain. Much lighter amounts of rain are likely to the East.

A Tropical Storm Warning has been issued for the entire tri-state area. Winds will gust between 45-75mph. I would prepare for possible power outages, especially near and along the coast where winds will be strongest. Tree limbs and weak rooted trees may come down. There is also the slight risk of severe thunderstorms. Isolated tornadoes are possible. Please be vigilant  during the afternoon as conditions will be changing rapidly.

There will be a storm surge with Isaias. A bit of good news, the brunt of the storm will not coincide with high tide. Even so, the tidal surge may cause an inundation of one to possibly three feet.

The storm will be a quick hitter and the sun may even shine later in the afternoon especially to the South and West of the City.

The sun will return on Wednesday. High pressure will dominate and result in fair weather through the end of the week.
