Tranquil, Bright Last Weekend of Winter. Eyes on Storm Next Week…

 

Synopsis:

A persistent Northwesterly flow will continue resulting in colder than average temperatures right through the weekend. The culprit, a stationary storm in Eastern Canada and high pressure nosing in from central Canada. Sunny skies are expected for the last weekend of Winter (that sounded good). Winds will not be as busy.

The threat of a storm affecting the area continues Tuesday and Wednesday, although the latest computer guidance has diminished that threat some. At this time it is too early to determine how much rain and or snow will fall.  The models do have an area of low pressure on the map over the Eastern states, but where does it go?  Where does the secondary redevelopment occur & does it stay just far enough South to spare the region?  These questions need to be answered.  Also, the sun angle will play into the equation of how much snow will stick during the daylight hours (it has to snow at a very good rate for snow to accumulate during the day). Strong winds and coastal flooding is also a possibility. At this time, be aware that the Tuesday into Wednesday time frame could be hazardous.

Stay tuned.

Today:

Sunny. Highs in the mid 40s. West to Northwest winds at 10-20mph.

Tonight:

Mostly clear. Breezy. Lows near 30º in the City, near 20º inland. Northwest winds diminishing to 5-10mph.

A low may affect the area Tuesday into Wednesday. At this time it is too early to determine how much rain and or snow will fall.  The models do have an area of low pressure on the map over the Eastern states, but where does it go?

Snow Ends From West to East This AM. Significant Snow Eastern Long Island & CT…

 

Synopsis:

Both the Southern and Northern jet stream will be high energized, this will result in explosive intensification of the coastal low off the Mid-Atlantic coast and New England coast today. Bombogenesis will occur-the birth of a rapidly deepening storm. This storm will move up and off our immediate coast today. The storm looks to take a path just outside the track for a major snowstorm for the entire area. Areas to the East of NYC will not be spared, as the heavier snow shield should work into Eastern Long Island and Connecticut. A Winter Storm warning has been posted for this area for the likelihood of heavy snow. Farther to the West much lighter accumulations are expected with virtually no accumulation in spots. The possible snow amounts are above.

Strong wind gusts of 30-45mph are possible along the coast and especially over Eastern Long Island. Minor coastal flooding is possible. Damaging winds of the first Nor’easter ten days ago is not expected.

The storm will pull away this afternoon with snow lingering to the East of NYC during the afternoon. Some sun is possible, especially to the West.

It will be cold and breezy behind this system into midweek next week with scattered flurries.

Stay tuned.

Today:

Snow, ending West in the morning. The snow will continue East of NYC into the afternoon. Some sun is possible. Windy. Highs in the upper 30s. Northwest winds at 15-30mph with higher gusts.

Tonight:

Partly cloudy. Lows near freezing in the City, the 20s inland. Northwest to West winds decreasing to 10-20mph.

Wednesday:

Clouds and sun, windy and chilly. Scattered late afternoon snow showers. Highs in the upper 30s.

Glancing Blow from Storm. Significant Snow Eastern Long Island & CT…

 

Synopsis:

Both the Southern and Northern jet stream will be high energized, this will result in explosive intensification of the coastal low off the Mid-Atlantic coast. Bombogenesis will occur-the birth of a rapidly deepening storm. This storm will move up and off our immediate coast late tonight into Tuesday. The storm looks to take a path just outside the track for a major snowstorm for the entire area. Areas to the East of NYC will not be spared, as the heavier snow shield should work into Eastern Long Island and Connecticut. A Winter Storm warning has been posted for this area for the likelihood of heavy snow. Farther to the West much lighter accumulations are expected with virtually no accumulation in spots. The possible snow amounts are above. Please note a track closer to the coast will result in higher totals farther West- a track farther East Lighter amounts.

Strong wind gusts of 40-45mph are possible along the coast on Tuesday. Minor coastal flooding is possible. Damaging winds of the first Nor’easter ten days ago is not expected.

The storm will pull away on Tuesday with snow lingering to the East of NYC during the afternoon. Some sun is possible.

It will be cold and breezy behind this system into midweek next week with scattered flurries.

Storm Skirts Area Tomorrow Night/Tuesday. Significant Snow East of NYC…

Synopsis:

A storm will be developing today over the Southeastern states on Monday an then move to the Outer Banks of North Carolina by late day. Clouds will thicken on Monday and a bit of wet snow and or rain is possible later in the day or by evening.

Both the Southern and Northern jet stream will be high energized, this will result in explosive intensification of the coastal low. Bombogenesis will occur-the birth of a rapidly deepening storm. This storm will move up and off our immediate coast late Monday night into Tuesday. The storm looks to take a path just outside the track for a major snowstorm for the entire area. Areas to the East of NYC will not be spared, as the heavier snow shield should work into Long Island and Connecticut. A Winter Storm Watch has been posted for this area for the potential of heavy snow. Farther to the West lighter accumulations are expected. The possible snow amounts are above. These bands will change as we get closer to the event. Please note a track closer to the coast will result in higher totals farther West- a track farther East Lighter amounts.

Strong wind gusts of 40-45mph are possible along the coast on Tuesday. Minor coastal flooding is possible. Damaging winds of the first Nor’easter ten days ago is not expected.

Tranquil Sunday. Some Snow Monday Nt. Into Tuesday…

Synopsis:

High pressure continue to nose in from Canada resulting in chilly but tranquil conditions today. Daylight Saving time began 2AM this Morning. Hopefully, you didn’t forget. We Spring ahead-turn your clocks ahead one hour. It’s also a good time to change the batteries in your smoke and carbon monoxide detectors.

A storm will be developing today over the Southern states. Will that storm move out the sea to the South or will it take a turn up the coast? The computer models take the storm just far enough off the coast to spare the area of a significant snowfall. Long Island and Connecticut have the best chance to see a decent snowfall. The full fury of the storm will stay offshore. Possible snow amounts will discussed in the afternoon update. The snow will end from West to East after midday Tuesday.

Whatever the case, it will be cold and breezy behind this system into midweek next week with scattered flurries.

Stay tuned.

Today:

Partly sunny. Highs in the mid 40s. Northwest winds at 5-10mph.

Tonight:

Clear to partly cloudy. Lows near freezing in the City, the 20s inland. North to Northeast winds at 5mph.

Monday:

Mostly cloudy. Low threat for some snow late in the day and at night, especially by the coast. Some rain is possible at the coast. Highs in the upper 30s.

Chilly, but Decent Weekend. Low Storm Threat Monday…

Synopsis:

High pressure will nose in from Canada with chilly readings but more sunshine for this weekend. Daylight Saving time begins 2AM Sunday. We Spring ahead-turn your clocks ahead one hour. It’s also a good time to change the batteries in your smoke and carbon monoxide detectors.

A storm will be on the map on Sunday over the Southern states. Will that storm move out the sea to the South or will it take a turn up the coast? Most of the computer models take this storm harmlessly out to sea. A few of the model ensembles have the storm skirting our area Monday and Monday night with snow. Confidence has increased that the storm will stay far enough offshore to spare the area of a significant snowstorm. The low threat of the storm affecting the tri-state remains. Coastal areas may get grazed by the storms snow shield, but it shouldn’t add up to much, if it even happens.

Whatever the case, it will be cold and breezy behind this system into midweek next week with scattered flurries.

Stay tuned.

Today:

Partly sunny. Breezy. Highs in the mid 40s. West winds at 10-20mph.
