Clouds, Some Sun Tuesday. Spotty Drizzle…

Synopsis:

An area of high pressure will move in from Eastern Canada today.  With the onshore flow there maybe some low level moisture that could lead to areas of drizzle in the morning, but some sunshine is expected.  It looks as though the atmosphere will dry out as the high dominates mid to late week with partly sunny to mostly sunny skies.

Hurricane Matthew is a category 4 storm with winds of 145mph. The storm continues to move just East of North.  It will make landfall this morning in Western Haiti and then continue to the Eastern tip of Cuba later in the day.  Severe flooding and damage with mudslides is expected over Haiti.  The Bahamas will feel the wrath of Matthew mid to late week-a prolonged and very likely a damaging scenario is setting up for the island chain (map below).  Will the storm strike the East coast?  The potential has increased over the Carolina’s. The latest track has the storm closer to the coast due to the fact that high pressure continues to build in the Western Atlantic and will keep the hurricane from going out to sea. Once it get to the latitude of the Outer Banks will it turn out to see or will in continue up the coast?  Thats the million dollar question.  I’m going with a 70/30 chance of the storm coming close enough for us to feel it’s affects.  As we know with all hurricanes; they have a mind of their own.  The hurricane won’t be a anywhere near our latitude until Saturday.  Many days to watch the details unfold.  Stay tuned.

Today:

Mainly cloudy this morning with spotty showers or areas of drizzle.  Afternoon Sun is possible. Seasonal. Highs in the upper 60s. Northeast winds at 10-15mph.

Tonight:

Partly cloudy. Lows in the mid 50s in the City, the mid 40s inalnd.  Northeast wind at 5-10mph.

Clouds to Some Sun Monday. Spot Shower…

Synopsis:

The pesky system that has been plaguing our area for days with grey, raw and unseasonably cool conditions is finally breaking down. Today will be the transition day with the clouds finally giving way to some sun as the system loses it’s influence on our area.  A stray shower can’t be ruled out but at least it’ll be brighter.

An area of high pressure will move in from Eastern Canada on Tuesday.  With the onshore flow there maybe some low level moisture that could lead to areas of drizzle in the morning, but some sunshine is expected.  It looks as though the atmosphere will dry out as the high dominates mid to late week with partly sunny to mostly sunny skies.

Hurricane Matthew is a category 4 storm with winds of 140mph. The Northward turn has happened and the storm should be just East of Jamaica tonight.  The storm will graze the Western peninsula of Haiti early Tuesday morning and then make landfall over Eastern Cuba Tuesday afternoon. The Bahamas will feel the wrath of Matthew mid to late week-a prolonged and possibly damaging scenario is setting up for the island chain (map below).  Will the storm strike the East coast?  The potential has increased somewhat. The latest track has the storm closer to the coast due to the fact that high pressure is building in the Western Atlantic and keeping the hurricane from going out to sea.  As we know with all hurricanes; they have a mind of their own.  The hurricane won’t be a anywhere near our latitude until late next week or the weekend.  Many days to watch the details unfold.  Stay tuned.

Today:

Mainly cloudy in the morning with some sun returning during the afternoon.  A stray shower is possible, warmer with highs in the lower 70s.  Light and variable winds.

Tonight:

Spotty showers, areas of drizzle and fog. Lows in the 50s to around 60º. Light North wind.

Another Grey Day Sunday. Spotty Drizzle/Showers…

Synopsis:

The upper low over the Mid-Atlantic and high pressure to the North that has been responsible for our grey, damp and unseasonably cool days will slowly weaken today.  Since systems are moving so slow grey skies will be with us through Sunday with areas of showers and drizzle just about anytime this weekend (FutureCast Radar/Cloud Cover above).  It won’t be a washout, but not the best weather for pumpkin’ pickin’.

Monday will be the transition day with the clouds finally giving way to some sun as the system loses it’s influence on our area.

A second area of high pressure will move in from Eastern Canada and finally bring some much needed sunshine next week.

Hurricane Matthew is a powerful category 4 storm with winds of 140mph. The Northward turn has happened and the storm should be just East of Jamaica on Monday.  Landfall is likely in Cuba on Tuesday and then the Bahamas will feel the wrath of Matthew (map below).  Will the storm strike the East coast?  At this time I am leaning against it, but a low probability is there.  As we know with all hurricanes; they have a mind of their own.  The hurricane won’t be a anywhere near our latitude until late next week or the weekend.  Many days to watch the details unfold.  Stay tuned.

Today:

Cloudy with a brightening of the sky at times.  Spotty showers, areas of drizzle.  Highs in the mid to upper 60s.  Northeast wind at 5-10mph.

Tonight:

Spotty showers, areas of drizzle and fog. Lows in the 50s to around 60º. Northeast to North wind at 5mph.

On & Off Showers/Drizzle. Raw & Breezy…

 

Synopsis:

An area of low pressure over the Mid-Atantic and strong high pressure over Northern New England will result in on and off rain and gusty winds through today.  A Flash Flood Watch is in effect through today for Ocean county for the possibility of flooded roadways in areas of heavier rain.

Very slow improvement will occur this weekend-as we welcome October.  Saturday will be mostly cloudy with scattered showers or areas of drizzle.  Sunday will be the better half of the weekend with more sunshine but still the threat of showers.
