Sun & Clouds Today. Stray PM Storm. Heaviest Rain Now Farther South Tonight-Saturday…

Synopsis:

Morning fog in spots will give way to a mix of sun and clouds. A stray afternoon storm can’t be ruled out. The developing Low pressure over Northern Virginia will move East and off the Delaware coast on Saturday. The computer models have been all over the place with the speed and placement of the axis of heavy rain.  It now looks like the heaviest rain will fall farther South and the system will move quicker meaning many areas will NOT get into the heavy rain band. This is why a Flash Flood Watch is only up for Southern NJ-1″-3″ may fall in this area. Many regions North of the City may not see much in the way of rainfall . The timing of the rain looks to be around midnight through early Saturday, again mainly South of the City. In fact, the sun may make an appearance later in the day Saturday.

Sunday will be the better half of the weekend with plenty of sunshine and low levels of humidity.

Stay tuned.

Today:

Clouds and sun. Humid. A stray storm is possible in the afternoon, especially South and West of the City. Highs in the lower 80s. Northeast to East winds at 5-10mph.

Tonight:

Cloudy with rain and possibly a thunderstorm, mainly from the City on South.  Lows in the 60s throughout. Northeast winds increasing to 10-20mph late.

Saturday:

On and off rain South of the City during the morning. Becoming partly sunny during the afternoon, especially inland and North. Breezy. Highs in the 70s.

Sunday:

Partly sunny. Highs around 80º.

Monday:

Partly sunny. Highs in the upper 70s.

Tuesday:

Partly sunny and warmer. Highs in the mid 80s.

More Clouds Today. Stray PM Storm…

Synopsis:

High pressure moving off the coast will result in a Southerly flow and more clouds for today. A stray storm can’t be ruled out by afternoon. Low pressure developing over the Ohio Valley will move East and off the coast Friday afternoon through Saturday morning. Parts of our region will receive heavy rain.  Where the heavy rain falls is not etched in stone as the models are still in disagreement. 1″-3″ is possible in the swath of heavy rain.

The weekend at this point looks to start wet with low pressure moving offshore. The sun should return by Saturday afternoon and Sunday will be the better half of the weekend with bright skies and warm readings.

Stay tuned.

Today:

More clouds than sun. A stray storm is possible later in the afternoon. Highs around 80º. South to Southwest winds at 5-10mph.

Sun Returns Today. Still Comfortable…

Low pressure moving out of the Ohio Valley may give parts of the area another round of heavy rain.  Where the heavy rain falls is not etched in stone as the models are in disagreement.

The weekend at this point looks decent as long as the low doesn’t slow down. There are indications that Saturday morning may feature some rain.

Stay tuned.

Last Day of Heat Wave Ends with Possible Severe Thunderstorms…

Synopsis:

If the temperature hits 90º or higher today it will be day 4 of the heat wave for the area. The humidity won’t be nearly as oppressive but we’ll have to pay the price as a complex of thunderstorms moves out of the Ohio Valley and into parts of the area later today and tonight. The majority of the day will be hazy. There is a risk of severe thunderstorms for much of the area with the highest risk to the South of the City (map above). Severe thunderstorms contain winds in excess of  58mph or higher and or one inch hail. Keep an eye to the sky for threatening weather later today. Torrential rain is also possible with any of the thunderstorms through early Sunday morning.

The weak front will stall just South of the City on Sunday. This will result in much cooler readings but also keep the skies mainly cloudy. The complex of thunderstorms will move off the coast in the morning. A spot shower or thunderstorms can’t be ruled out during the afternoon, but much of the PM hours will be dry.

The final push of cooler and drier air will work in later Monday with a front working in from the West. Again, scattered showers and storms are possible but much of the time will be dry.

Tuesday and Wednesday will be late July gems with plenty of sunshine, low humidity and tolerable temperatures.

Stay tuned.

Today:

Hazy, hot and moderately humid.. Highs around 90º. Scattered afternoon and evening storms. Some of the storms maybe severe. East to Southeast wind at 5-10mph.

Tonight:

Scattered showers and thunderstorms. Some of the storms may contain damaging winds, hail and torrential rain. Lows around 70º in the City, the 60’s inland. East to Northeast winds at 5-10mph.

Mostly cloudy with scattered morning storms. Much cooler. A stray afternoon storm can’t be ruled out. Highs in the lower 80s.

Monday:

Mostly cloudy with spotty showers and storms. Highs around 80º.

Tuesday:

Partly sunny and pleasant. Highs in the lower 80s.

Wednesday:

Sunny. A top ten day. Highs in the lower 80s.

Humidity Remains High. Isolated PM Storms…

Synopsis:

A weak Southerly flow will continue through Wednesday as high pressure remains anchored in the Western Atlantic. This will keep the humidity high. A weak trough will be over the region raising the chances of a spotty storm this afternoon.

Hot times are ahead for  late week as a bubble of heat works in from the West and South. The models have been having issues with the timing of a cool front in New England for the Friday through weekend period. Yesterday’s model run had the front pushing through Friday. The latest runs now have the front pushing in some time Saturday. This development will now keep the heat and humidity with us into Saturday.

Stay tuned.

Today:

Partly sunny, warm and humid. Spotty PM Storms. Highs in the mid 80s. South wind at 5-10mph.

Tonight:

Partly cloudy, warm and muggy. Lows in the mid 70s in the City, the mid 60s inland. South to Southwest wind less than 5mph.
