Synopsis:

Get used to the clouds that have rolled into the region. They will stick around, unfortunately from now through two thirds of the Memorial Day weekend. It will also be unseasonably chilly with readings in the 50s and 60s through Sunday. Rain will develop Friday afternoon (scattered in nature) and continue on and off through Sunday as two areas of low pressure affect the region. This will not be a beach weekend obviously.

The first area of low pressure will develop over the Ohio Valley on Friday. A period of heavy rain is likely Friday night. One to two inches of rain is possible by Saturday morning. The Nam and Euro models are above depicting the possible rainfall amounts by Noon Saturday. This first low will move offshore during the day Saturday. The rain will transition to scattered showers during the morning.

The second area of low pressure will develop off the Maryland coast and move Northeast and out to sea. This second punch will not be as intense as the first round of rain. Scattered showers are likely Saturday night through Sunday.

High pressure in Southeastern Canada should funnel in enough dry air for a decent Memorial Day. Mainly sunny skies and more seasonal temperatures are anticipated.

More times than not, the forecast for the unofficial beginning of Summer (the holiday weekend) includes some threat of rain and cool temperatures. This year will be no different.

Stay tuned.

Keep it here for a no nonsense, no hype forecast.

Today:

Mostly cloudy with the chance of afternoon rain. Much cooler and breezy. Highs in the lower to mid 60s. Northeast to East winds at 10-20mph.

Tonight:

Rain, heavy at times. Chilly and breezy. Lows in the 40s throughout. Northeast winds at 15-25mph with gusts to 30mph.

Saturday:

Morning rain will taper off to scattered showers. Very cool. Highs only in the mid 50s.

Sunday:

Mainly cloudy. Scattered showers. Cool. Highs in the lower 60s.

Memorial Day:

Mostly sunny. More seasonal Highs in the lower to mid 70s.

Tuesday:

Mostly sunny. Warmer. Highs in the upper 70s.

 

Synopsis:

High pressure over the Northeast will influence our weather today. Readings will still be quite warm but the humidity levels will be much lower. Many will be smiling about today’s forecast.

Cooler readings are expected for Friday with a wind off the Atlantic. An area of low pressure will give us some much needed rain by afternoon and night.

The Memorial Holiday Weekend is not looking like a beach weekend for 2 out of the 3 days. The offshore low pressure system will pull away on Saturday. It now looks to do this more slowly. What this means is that morning rain will taper off to scattered showers by afternoon. It will be unseasonably cool with readings ten to fifteen degrees below the average high of the mid 70s. A weak secondary area of low pressure may develop off the coast for Sunday. I had to go more pessimistic on the forecast. Mostly cloudy skies are now expected for Sunday with the chance of spotty showers. High pressure in Southeastern Canada should funnel in enough dry air for a decent Memorial Day Monday. Mainly sunny skies and more seasonal temperatures are anticipated. More times than not the forecast for the unofficial beginning of Summer (the holiday weekend) includes some threat of rain and cool temperatures. This year will be no different.

Stay tuned.

Today:

Mostly sunny, warm and much less humid. Highs in the lower to mid 80s. Northwest winds at 10-15mph.

Tonight:

Partly cloudy. Cooler. Lows in the upper 50s in the City, the upper 40s inland. Northwest to Northeast winds at 5mph.

Friday:

Mostly cloudy with the chance of afternoon rain. Much cooler.  Highs in the mid 60s.

Saturday:

Morning rain, otherwise mostly cloudy with scattered showers. Very cool. Highs only around 60º.

Sunday:

Mainly cloudy. Spotty showers possible. Cool. Highs in the mid 60s.

Memorial Day:

Mostly sunny. More seasonal Highs in the lower to mid 70s.

 

Synopsis:

The heat will make a return visit today. Readings once again will feel like a day out of July as a southwesterly flow around a Bermuda high takes hold. It will the most humid it’s been so far this year. Spotty storms are possible by late day as a cool front approaches. Some of the storm may turn isolated severe, especially away from the coast (map above). Severe thunderstorms contain winds in excess of 58mph and or large hail. Not all areas will get into the action.

The warm weather will stick into Thursday, but it’ll be much less humid. The sun will dominate.

Cooler Readings are expected for the end of the week with a wind off the Atlantic. An area of low pressure should give us some much needed rain by Friday afternoon and night.

The offshore low pressure system will pull away swiftly on Saturday. What this means is that morning showers should give way to increasing sunshine during the afternoon! Highs pressure in Southeastern Canada should funnel in enough dry air for a decent two thirds of the weekend. Sunday and Monday at this time look mainly sunny and comfortable!  The only computer model keeping the low close to the coast and stalling is the European. Hopefully this is wrong, as all the other models have decent weather. Readings will be cooler than the average high of the mid 70s, but who’s complaining?!

Stay tuned.

Today:

Partly sunny, very warm and humid. Breezy. Spotty late day storms. Highs in the mid to upper 80s. Southwest winds at 15-25mph.

Synopsis:

Today will be a comfortable day with readings closer to the average high of the lower to mid 70s. A mix of clouds and sun is expected as high pressure moves off the coast.

By Wednesday, readings once again will feel like a day out of July as a southwesterly flow around a Bermuda high takes hold. Spotty Storms are possible by Wednesday evening and night. Not all areas will receive the desperately needed rain.

The warm weather will stick into Thursday under a mix of sun and clouds.

Cooler Readings are expected for the end of the week with a wind off the Atlantic. An area of low pressure may give us some much needed rain by Friday afternoon.

Unfortunately, many of the computer models have low pressure offshore on Saturday. This could result in the showers sticking around. I know, it’s the beginning of the Memorial Day Weekend. It’s several days away and change is always a possibility.  The rest of the Holiday weekend is looking decent at this time-fingers crossed.

Stay tuned.

It’s been two weeks since we had any precipitation.

Relief will arrive on Monday behind the cool front. It’ll be much cooler with readings staying below the average high of 73º. It will feel refreshing.

On Tuesday temperatures will begin their upward climb once again. By Wednesday, readings once again we feel like a day out of July. The warm weather will stick into Thursday under a mix of sun and clouds.

Both days will be hot with readings in the upper 80s to lower 90s. The only saving grace is that the humidity will be in check.

A cool front will work in Sunday night with relief. Monday will be much cooler and seasonal. On Tuesday temperatures will begin their upward climb once again. By Wednesday, readings once again we feel like a day out of July.

Synopsis:

It’s all about location with temperatures today. High pressure East of New England will keep areas right along the coast and to the East of the City cool due to the influence of an ocean breeze off the chilly Atlantic. Temperatures will still be at or just above seasonal levels (the lower 70s). To the West readings will be the warmest. The push of cool air will stall just East of here. Mainly sunny skies are expected for today.

It will heat up in all areas this weekend. The bubble of very warm air will encompass the entire region as high pressure off the Southeast coast brings in the heat. Saturday and Sunday will feature a mix of sun and clouds. Both days will be Summer-like with readings in the upper 80s to around 90º.

Synopsis:

High pressure East of New England has pushed much cooler air into the region. The result will be much cooler readings for today and Friday. Temperatures will still be at or just above seasonal levels (the lower 70s). Well to the east readings will be below average due to the influence of an ocean breeze off the chilly Atlantic. Well to the West readings will be the warmest. The push of cool air will stall over Western sections. A mix of sun and clouds is expected both days.

By the weekend, the cool front will washout and the warmer air just to our West will once again return. Saturday and Sunday will feature a mix of sun and clouds. Sunday will be quite warm with the Summer feel retuning.

Synopsis:

High pressure to our South will continue to bring up the temperatures through today. In fact, it will be the warmest day of the year so far. Readings will be July like, at least fifteen degrees above the average high of the lower 70s. Abundant sunshine is expected. Please slather on the sunscreen. The UV forecast for the first time this year is a very 8 on a scale of 1-12.

High pressure East of New England will push a back door cold front through much of the area tonight. This change in airmass will not be accompanied by any showers. The result though will be much cooler days for most of the region Thursday and Friday. Temperatures will still be at or just above seasonal levels. Well to the east readings will be below average due to the influence of an ocean breeze off the chilly Atlantic. Well to the West readings will be the warmest. The push of cool air will stall over Western sections. A mix of sun and clouds is expected both days.
