Flash Flood Watch Much of NJ Into Tonight. Humid…

Synopsis:

***Flash Flood Watch for much of NJ into tonight. Locally heavy rain may cause flash flooding of roadways and creeks. If you encounter a flooded roadway-TURN AROUND-DON’T DROWN***

A trough of low pressure over the Appalachians and a strong high pressure off the Eastern Seaboard will result in a very humid airmass originating from the Caribbean through today. The best chance of widespread rain and thunderstorms will be into tonight as this is the time of best forcing and convergence over the tri-state area.

By Thursday the pattern will finally begin to break down and a drier wind from the land will occur. An isolated shower is possible.

Friday and into the weekend should be mainly dry as high pressure from the West begins to take hold.

Stay tuned.

Cloudy and humid with periods of rain and scattered storms. Local downpours. It won’t be raining all the time. Highs in the upper 70s. Southeast winds 10-15mph.

Tonight:

Mostly cloudy. Hit or miss showers and storms. Local downpours. Muggy. Lows around 70º in the City, the upper 60s inland. Southeast to Southwest wind at 5mph.

Today Starts Off Nice. Showers Late Day. Heavy Rain Tonight. Sunday Not a Loss…

 

Synopsis:

I’d like to start off by saying the weekend will not be a washout. Today should feature morning sun giving way to clouds. An area of low pressure will move up the coast from the Carolina’s later Saturday and Saturday night. Showers will move from South to North Saturday afternoon, most areas near the City and to the North will remain dry through sunset. The best potential of steady and heavier rain will be tonight into Sunday morning.  As the low pulls away Sunday some sun is expected. Scattered showers and storms are possible during the afternoon. It will not be a washout. One to two inches of rain is possible with locally higher amounts by late day Sunday (second map above). A Flash Flood Watch has been posted for Ocean and Mercer counties.

An upper level low will move into the Appalachians Sunday through the beginning of the week. At the same time, a strong high pressure system will be over the Western Atlantic. This will result in a deep Southerly flow of tropical air. Scattered showers and storms are possible. Some of the rain maybe heavy. It’ll be warm and very humid.

Stay tuned.

Fantastic Friday. Weekend Starts Nice. Rain likely Saturday Night…

 

Synopsis:

This is as good as July gets. Mostly sunny, warm conditions are expected today. The humidity levels will be very low as high pressure moves off the Northeastern coast.

The weekend has some questions that need be answered. An area of low pressure will move up the coast from the Carolina’s later Saturday into Sunday morning. How fast and how close the low comes to our area will determine when and how much rain will fall. At this time Saturday should feature sun giving way to clouds. Some of the models have rain moving into the area; I’ve now included showers later Saturday afternoon, especially South of the City. The best potential of steady and heavier rain will be Saturday night and Sunday morning. Morning rain is likely North of the City. As the low pulls away Sunday some sun is expected. Scattered showers and storms are possible during the afternoon. It will not be a washout.

An upper level low will move into the Appalachians Sunday through the beginning of the week. At the same time, a strong high pressure system will be over the Western Atlantic. This will result in a deep Southerly flow of tropical air. Scattered showers and storms are possible. Some of the rain maybe heavy. It’ll be warm and very humid.

Stay tuned.

Today:

Sunny. Highs in the mid 80s. Southeast winds at 5-10mph.

Tonight:

Mostly clear. Lows in the upper 60s in the City, the mid to upper 50s inland. Southeast wind less than 5mph.

Spectacular Through Friday…

 

Synopsis:

This is as good as July gets. Mostly sunny, warm conditions are expected through tomorrow. The humidity levels will be very low as high pressure moves over the region.

The weekend has some questions that need be answered. An area of low pressure will move up the coast from the Carolina’s later Saturday into Sunday morning. How fast and how close the low comes to our area will determine when and how much rain will fall. At this time Saturday should feature sun giving way to clouds. Some of the models have rain moving into the area; I’m not convinced of this yet. The best potential of steady and heavier rain will be Saturday night and Sunday morning. As the low pulls away Sunday some sun is expected. Scattered showers and storms are possible during the afternoon.

An upper level low will move into the Appalachians Sunday through the beginning of the week. At the same time, a strong high pressure system will be over the Western Atlantic. This will result in a deep Southerly flow of tropical air. Scattered showers and storms are possible. Some of the rain maybe heavy.

Stay tuned.
