Synopsis:

Low pressure developing over the central Appalachians tonight will bring rain into the region around midnight. The low will move off the NJ coast and to near Cape Cod by Saturday evening with on and off rain. Most areas will receive close to an inch of rain (map above) something we don’t need. Please use caution traveling. Urban street and highway flooding is possible.

Partly sunny skies are expected for Sunday along with breezy to windy conditions. Readings will still be a few degrees above the average high of the upper 30s.

A weak low pressure system will approach Monday night. Light rain or snow showers are possible. This shouldn’t be a big deal.

The strong Pacific jet stream continues to dominate. This pattern of no intrusion of Arctic air looks to continue for the first ten days of January. It may cool down some midweek next week but it won’t be frigid.  Sorry snow lovers, the wait continues for a substantial snowfall.

Synopsis:

It’ll feel more like January today as high pressure over the plains supplies colder air from Canada. Winds will diminish with a mix of sun and clouds.

A weak low off Virginia along with upper level energy moving through the area Thursday morning will spark a few rain or snow showers. This won’t be a big deal. Another high will move in Thursday into Friday resulting in sunny and above average temperatures.

The models continue to show a low developing over the Ohio Valley on Friday. The upper low associated with the storm is in slow mode. Rain is not expected now until Saturday. The low will move over the region and into Eastern New England later Saturday. The strong Pacific jet stream continues to dominate and there is no supply of cold air, hence the rain and not snow.

2018 will be know as-the year it rained. It was the 4th wettest year on record with 65.52″ of rain at Central Park!  The average rainfall for the year is 49.94″. Records go back to 1869.

Temperatures will be twenty degrees above the average high of the upper 30s. Winds will be strong out of the West and gust up to 45mph.
