Breezy Saturday. Decent Last Weekend of January…

 

Synopsis:.

The wind will still be gusty through Saturday but not as strong as recent days. The mercury will come down is steps as we head through the weekend with colder air filtering in under partly cloudy skies.  In fact, there’s no Arctic air in sight (map above). Currently, January is the 10th warmest January on record for New York City. Not surprising.

A more Winter-like pattern will be with us next week.  Our chances of any steady snow early this week have diminished (not that it was ever in the forecast). The jet stream is hauling out of the Northwest and there’s really no blocking in Canada to slow the flow down and let any weak area of low pressure form close enough to our region. A few flurries are possible Monday with the trough moving through but thats about it.  It looks tranquil as we head end January and head into the first few days of February.

The next threat and its only that- a threat, is the February 6th-8th time frame. Don’t hold your breath.

Today:

Partly cloudy with still above average temperatures. Breezy. Highs in the lower 40s. The average high for this date is in the upper 30s. West wind at 10-20mph with gusts to 30mph.

Tonight:

Partly cloudy with diminishing winds. Lows in the lower in the City, the mid 20s inland. West wind at 5-10mph.

Sunday:

Partly sunny. Highs around 40º.

Monday:

Mostly cloudy, colder. Chance of flurries. Highs in the mid 30s.

Tuesday:

Partly sunny. Highs in the upper 30s.

Wednesday:

Partly sunny. Highs around 40º.

Gusty Winds. Still Above Average Temps Friday. Cooler Weekend…

 

Synopsis:.

The wind will be busy the next 24 hours as a deep storm over Eastern Canada will supply the gusty conditions. The mercury will come down is steps as we head into the weekend with colder air filtering in under partly cloudy skies.

A more Winter-like pattern will be with us next week.  There will be a few of shots of flurries or snow showers Monday through Wednesday as the trough sharpens over the Northeast. Could we see a steadier light snow out of one of these chances? Yes, if a more organized low forms. That is the question. The jet stream is hauling out of the Northwest and there’s really no blocking in Canada to slow the flow down and let a storm form.  Just be aware that anytime early to midweek next week the flakes could fly.

Today:

Clouds and sun, breezy and cooler. Highs in the mid 40s. West wind at 15-25mph with gusts to 30mph.

Tonight:

Partly cloudy and breezy. Lows in the lower to mid 30s in the City, the upper 20s inland. West wind at 10-20mph.

Saturday:

Partly cloudy with still above average temperatures. Highs in the mid 40s. The average high for this date is in the upper 30s.

Sunday:

Partly sunny, seasonal. Highs in the upper 30s.

Monday:

Mostly cloudy, colder. Chance of flurries or snow showers. Highs in the mid 30s.

Tuesday:

Mostly cloudy. Chance of flurries or snow showers. Highs in the mid 30s.

Spring-like Today. Spot AM Shower. Cooling Down into Weekend…

 

Synopsis:.

A cold front will swing through this morning with a few showers. The cold air will be delayed as it is a few hundred miles to the Northwest of the tri-state area. Because of this, another Spring-like day is expected under a mix of clouds and sun. The wind will be busy the next 24 hours. The mercury will come down is steps as we head into the weekend with no storms in sight.

A more Winter-like pattern looks to be in the cards as February nears. Will the storm track be favorable for snow? Right now I’m leaning toward no. Stay tuned.

Spotty morning showers otherwise, a mix of sun and clouds. Mild. Highs in the lower to mid 50s. Breezy. Southwest to West winds increasing to 15-25mph with gusts to 35mph later this afternoon.

Tonight:

Partly cloudy and breezy. Lows in the mid 30s in the City, near 30º inland. West wind at 15-25mph with gusts to 30mph.

As the storm pulls away Wednesday we’ll finally get to see the sun!  There is no cold air behind the Nor’easter so Spring-like readings are expected.

A cold front will swing through Thursday. The mercury will come down is steps as we head into the weekend.

On & Off Rain, Mixed with Sleet/Wet Snow at Times Inland…

 

Synopsis:.

The Nor’easter will continue to move up and just off the coast today. The good news is that the heaviest precipitation and highest wind field has moved into New England. On and off Light rain is expected with areas of drizzle. North and West on and off wet snow or sleet is possible, especially at the higher elevations. There will be dry times. The thinking is as the storm continues to meander offshore a more organized area of precipitation will swing back to the the West from the ocean this afternoon. The FutureCast radar above shows this. At this time the atmosphere maybe cold enough for wet snow or sleet to be mixed in closer to the coast. Don’t be surprised if a burst of wet snow or sleet occurs at or near the coast.  Any area has the possibility of picking up a slushy coating of sleet or wet snow later today.

As the storm pulls away Wednesday we’ll finally get to see the sun!  There is no cold air behind the Nor’easter so Spring-like readings are expected.

A cold front will swing through Thursday. The mercury will come down is steps as we head into the weekend.

A more Winter-like pattern looks to be in the cards as February nears. Will the storm track be favorable for snow? Stay tuned.

Today:

Scattered areas of rain and drizzle. Wet snow and sleet at times inland. A period of steady and heavier precipitation is expected for most later this afternoon. Highs around 40º in the City, 30s inland. Northeast to Northwest wind at 15-25mph with gusts to 30mph.

Tonight:

Scattered areas of rain, wet snow or sleet will come to an end otherwise, mostly cloudy. Lows in the mid 30s in the City, upper 20s inland. Northwest wind at 15-25mph.

Wednesday:

Partly sunny and mild. Highs around 50º.

Thursday:

Partly sunny and mild. Highs in the upper 40s.

Friday:
