Synopsis:

The next two days will be bright with moderating temperatures  as high pressure works in from the West. Readings will be near the seasonal average of 38º today and rise to a few degrees above average tomorrow. A cold front will pass Wednesday night with the thermometer falling to near freezing for highs on Thursday.

A weak disturbance will move in on Thursday night and Friday morning with scattered areas of light snow and rain. A coating to a couple of inches is possible by Friday morning, mainly from the City and to the North and West.

Now on to the weekend. The latest computer guidance suggests the weekend will start off dry. The potential for a heavy precipitation event in the East starting later Saturday and into Sunday continues to increase. It should start as snow or a mix later Saturday afternoon. There is now a high possibility, looking at the latest computer models, that the snow/mix will go over to rain along the coast Saturday night and Sunday morning. Even inland the potential for change to rain is quite possible. The storm looks to take a track from the Ohio Valley to very near or right over the region on Sunday. This will draw up warmer air from the South and keep a majority of the event rain. There will be an incredibly tight thermal gradient along the East coast. A shift of 50 miles either way would be the difference between mostly rain or mostly snow and ice. This has to be watched, but as of today the warmer solution looks to win the battle.

A flash freeze is likely on Sunday as the push of Arctic air works in. Any leftover precipitation may go over to a period of snow on Sunday.

To recap:  As of right now, it looks like a warmer solution resulting in the bulk of the heaviest precipitation being rain with wintry precipitation to start and to Finish. Obviously, this is not etched in stone as the storm is still 4 days away.

You know where to find a no hype, no nonsense forecast.

Stay tuned.

Synopsis:

The workweek will be bright with moderating temperatures through Wednesday as high pressure works in from the West. A cold front will pass Wednesday night with the thermometer falling to near freezing for highs on Thursday.

A weak disturbance will move in on Friday with scattered snow showers.

A lot of chatter already about next weekend. The latest computer guidance suggests the weekend will start off dry. The signal is there for a potential heavy precipitation event in the East starting later Saturday and into Sunday. PLEASE don’t listen to any outlets at this time stating a snowstorm is on the way. The event is six days away. It’s pure hype. There will be an incredibly tight thermal gradient along the East coast. A shift of 50 miles either way would be the difference between mostly rain or mostly snow. This has to be watched. JMW will continue to monitor.

Synopsis:

The low pressure system that gave Southern NJ an accumulating snow will move farther offshore tonight. Scattered light snow may continue into the overnight hours over Southern NJ any additional accumulations will be light. Skies will be mainly clear North to Mainly cloudy from the City and South.

The workweek will be bright with moderating temperatures through Wednesday as high pressure works in from the West. A cold front will pass Wednesday night with the thermometer falling to near freezing for highs on Thursday.

A weak disturbance will move in on Friday with scattered snow showers.

A lot of chatter already about next weekend. There will be a low on the map. How it interacts with Arctic air coming in from Canada is anyone’s guess at this point. But the signal is there for a potential heavy precipitation event in the East. PLEASE don’t listen to any FAKE WEATHER NEWS about a snowstorm this far out in the game. It’s pure hype this far out.

You know where to find a no hype, no nonsense forecast.

Stay tuned.

Synopsis:

There will be areas of light snow and flurries from the NYC vicinity and to the South this morning. The steadiest and heaviest snow will be over Southern NJ. Areas to the North of the City will not see any snow.  Southern NJ will be the jackpot zone for snow. The possible snow amounts are above. The sun will return later Sunday for most areas with the exception of Southern NJ where it may snow the majority of the day.

The workweek will be bright with moderating temperatures through Wednesday. Colder air will work in late week.

There will be a low on the map next weekend. How it interacts with Arctic air coming in from Canada is anyone’s guess at this point. PLEASE don’t listen to any FAKE WEATHER NEWS about a snowstorm this far out in the game. It’s pure hype this far out.

Today:

Areas of light snow or snow showers in the morning from the City and to the South, otherwise clouds will give way to some sun. The exception will be Southern NJ where snow may fall the majority of the day. Highs in the mid 30s. Northeast winds at 8-12mph.

Tonight:

Partly cloudy. Lows in the 20s thorughout. Northeast winds at 8-15mph.

Tuesday:

Sunny. Highs around 40º.

Wednesday:

Synopsis:

The weekend forecast will continue to reminds us that it’s January.  Today will start off with early morning sun but clouds roll in during the mid to late morning hours. Highs will be near freezing.

The potential for light snow or snow showers remains for tonight and Sunday morning from the City and to the South. Areas North of the City may not see a flake. The low never becomes strong until it’s way off the coast. The Northern and Southern jet do not phase and are progressive; but what happens is there’s enough energy from both streams to produce some light snow or flurries across Central and Southern areas tonight and Sunday morning. The light snow shield may brush the NYC vicinity. The airmass will be very dry so how much light snow falls remains to be seen. It maybe just a few snow showers.  Areas to the North of the City and including the City may not see any snow.  Southern NJ will be the jackpot zone for snow. The possible snow amounts are above. The sun will return Sunday.

The workweek will be bright and not as cold.

You know where to find a no hype, no nonsense forecast.

Stay tuned.

Synopsis:

High pressure over Canada will nose into the area tonight. This will result in a frigid night under clear skies and almost calm winds. Temperatures will plummet, especially inland where readings will reach the single digits.

The weekend forecast will continue to reminds us that it’s January.  Saturday will start off with sun but clouds will roll in during the afternoon. Highs will be near freezing.

The potential for light snow or snow showers remains for Saturday night and Sunday morning. Areas North of the City may not see a flake. The low never becomes strong until it’s way off the coast.

Tonight:

Mostly clear. Frigid. Lows in the lower 20s in the City, the single digits and teens inland. Northwest winds diminishing to 5mph.

Saturday:

Sun to afternoon clouds. Cold. Highs around freezing. Northwest winds at 5mph.

Sunday:

Potential for light snow or snow showers in the morning, especially South of the City. Clouds will give way to sun. Highs around freezing.

Monday:

Mostly sunny. Highs in the mid 30s.

Tuesday:

Sunny. Highs around 40º.

Wednesday:

Synopsis:

The pressure gradient between low pressure in Eastern Canada and high pressure over the Great Lakes will weaken today. This will result in the wicked winds slowly abating through the day. Highs will most likely remain just below freezing, despite the sunshine.

The weekend forecast will continue to reminds us that it’s January.  Saturday will start off with sun but clouds will roll in during the afternoon. A few flurries are possible by late day.

The potential for light snow or snow showers remains for Saturday night and Sunday morning. Areas North of the City may not see a flake and the sun may return for the second half of Sunday for all areas.

The low never becomes strong until it’s way off the coast. The Northern and Southern jet do not phase and are progressive; but what happens is there’s enough energy from both streams to produce some light snow or flurries across the areas on Saturday night and Sunday morning as seen on both the GFS and European models below. The light snow shield brushes the NYC vicinity. The airmass will be very dry so how much light snow falls remains to be seen. It maybe just a few snow showers.  Areas to the North of the City may not see any snow.  You know where to find a no hype, no nonsense forecast.

Stay tuned.

Today:

Mostly sunny, breezy and cold. Highs around 30º. Northwest winds at 10-20mph. Wind chills in the 20s.

Tonight:

Mostly clear. Frigid. Lows in the lower 20s in the City, the upper single digits and teens inland. Northwest winds diminishing to 5-10mph.

Saturday:

Sun to afternoon clouds. Slight chance of late day flurries. Cold. Highs around freezing.

Sunday:

Mostly cloudy. Potential for light snow or snow showers in the morning, especially South of the City. Highs around freezing.

Monday:

Partly sunny. Highs in the mid 30s.

Tuesday:

Partly sunny. Highs around 40º.

 

Synopsis:

January will finally make an appearance with cold temperatures and bone chilling winds. Low pressure will be over Southeastern Canada, at the same time, strong high pressure will be over the Northern Plains. This will cause a tight pressure gradient which will result in strong Northwest winds. Gusts between 30-40mph will occur through today. Highs will only be in the 30s with wind chills in the 20s under partly sunny skies on Thursday.

The Canadian high will move toward the Northeast on Friday. The winds should abate some. It’ll only be near freezing despite the sunshine.

One thing is sure about the weekend-it’ll be cold!  Saturday will start off with sun but clouds will roll in during the afternoon. A few flurries are possible by late day.

The potential for a light snowfall still exists for Saturday night and Sunday. The GFS, the crazy model that gave the area a snowstorm two days ago (didn’t believe that for a second) barely has flakes falling in the NYC vicinity on Sunday. The European which has been consistent, with minor changes (which is expected) has been showing light snow or snow showers over the region. The storm never becomes strong on both models until it’s way off the coast. The Northern and Southern jet do not phase; but what happens is there’s enough energy from both streams to produce some light snow or flurries across the areas on Sunday. The airmass will be very dry so how much snow falls remains to be seen, but “light” is the operative word here. It maybe just a few snow showers.  Areas to the North of the City may not see any snow.  And to think there were outlets forecasting over 10″ of snow a few days ago. FAKE NEWS.

Stay tuned.

Today:

Scattered early flurries otherwise, partly sunny, windy and cold. Highs in the mid 30s. Northwest winds at 15-30mph with gusts to 40mph. Wind chills in the 2os.

Tonight:

Mostly clear. Frigid. Lows in the lower 20s in the City, the teens inland. Northwest winds diminishing to 15-25mph. Wind chills in the teens, single digits well inland.

Friday:

Mostly sunny. Cold. Highs around freezing.

Saturday:

Sun to afternoon clouds. Slight chance of late day flurries. Cold. Highs around freezing.

Sunday:

Mostly cloudy. Potential for light snow or snow showers, especially South. Highs around 30º.

Monday:

Partly sunny. Highs in the mid 30s.

 

Synopsis:

Today will feature a mix of sun and clouds with strong winds. Low pressure will rapidly intensify over New England. At the same time, strong high pressure will be over the Northern Plains. This will cause a tight pressure gradient which will result in strong Northwest winds. Gusts up to 40mph are possible both today and Thursday. Today’s temperatures will be above average but by Thursday January will make it’s presence known. Highs will only be in the 30s with wind chills in the 20s under partly sunny skies.

The Canadian high will move toward the Northeast on Friday. The winds should abate some. It’ll only be near freezing despite the sunshine.

One thing is sure about the weekend-it’ll be cold!  Saturday will start off with sun but clouds will roll in during the afternoon.

Sunday’s storm potential remains low. The latest two models, the GFS and the European both gave into each other a bit. The GFS is farther South from previous runs and the European is farther North and a bit more robust with its precipitation to the South of the region. The storm never becomes strong on both models. The Northern and Southern jet do not look to phase; but what happens is there’s enough energy from both streams to produce some light snow across the areas on Sunday. The airmass will be very dry so how much snow falls remains to be seen, but “light” is the operative word here. We’re 4 days away from the event. Nothing is etched in stone. JMW continues to track and digest the latest guidance.

Friday:

Mostly sunny. Cold. Highs around freezing.

Synopsis:

Areas of dense fog can be expected into tonight as a warm front inches through the area and falls apart. Another shot of scattered rain showers is likely with a second low moving into New England tonight.

Wednesday will be mostly cloudy with strong winds. Low pressure will rapidly intensify over New England. At the same time, strong high pressure will be over the Northern Plains. This will cause a tight pressure gradient which will result in strong Northwest winds. Gusts up to 40mph are possible both Wednesday and Thursday. Wednesday temperatures will be above average but by Thursday January will make it’s presence known. Highs will only be in the 30s with wind chills in the 20s under partly sunny skies.
