Synopsis:

Grey, damp  conditions will continue as a light flow off the ocean and trough of low pressure remains over the area. Scattered showers are possible but much of the time will be dry. Humidity levels will be high.

By Friday high pressure over New England should bring somewhat drier air into our area. A mix of clouds and sun is expected. Will some moisture in the form of scattered showers working in off the ocean from Florence’s circulation occur? It’s a possibility. That will most likely be the only affect from the storm, if it occurs. Rough surf and dangerous rip currents will definitely be an issue.

The weekend at this time looks decent with seasonal temperatures and a decent amount of sunshine.

There are now 4 storms in the Atlantic. Hurricane Florence, Tropical Storm Issac and Hurricane Helene and newly formed Subtropical Storm Joyce. Florence obviously is the story (2nd map above).

Hurricane Florence is approaching the North Carolina coast. Florence, as of this writing, is a now a Category 2 status with winds of 110mph. A piece of good news, the hurricane has weakened some. With that said, it still we be a dangerous category storm when it reaches the coast.

The models are in very good agreement that the hurricane will move close to the North Carolina’s later today into Friday morning. Pinpoint location of possible landfall is a huge question that will need some time to answer. We’ll continue to track. While we track, please don’t concentrate on the exact line (map above), but rather the yellow cone of uncertainty (map above). The storm looks to stall and spin for possibly a day after this time frame as steering currents in the upper atmosphere are weak to none. Will it be inland or just off the coast? Where this happens is still a important question that needs to be answered. The models have the hurricane moving in a very unusual direction-to the Southwest Friday into Saturday. This is due to extensive high pressure to the North of the storm pushing it in that direction. Extreme rainfall amounts are possible where Florence possibly stalls. A catastrophic flooding event is possible. You know where to find a no hype, no nonsense forecast.

Stay tuned.

Thursday:

Cloudy. Spotty showers. Humid. Highs in the mid to upper 70s. East to Northeast winds at 5-10mph.

Synopsis:

Grey, damp  conditions will continue through today as a  light flow off the ocean and trough of low pressure remains over the area. Scattered showers and storms are possible just about anytime. There will be areas of drizzle and fog through the morning hours. Humidity levels will be high.

For Thursday into Friday high pressure over New England should bring somewhat drier air into our area. A mix of sun and clouds is expected. Will some moisture in the form of scattered showers working in off the ocean from Florence’s circulation occur? It’s a possibility. That will most likely be the only affect from the storm, if it occurs. Rough surf and dangerous rip currents will definitely be an issue.

There are currently three storms in the Atlantic. Hurricane Florence, Tropical Storm Issac and Hurricane Helene (2nd map above).

Hurricane Florence is in the Atlantic between Bermuda and the Bahamas. Florence as of this writing is a Category 4 hurricane with winds of over 130mph. The models are in very good agreement that the hurricane will move close to the Carolina’s later Thursday into Friday morning. Pinpoint location of possible landfall is a huge question that will need some time to answer. We’ll continue to track. While we track, please don’t concentrate on the exact line (map above), but rather the yellow cone of uncertainty (map above). The storm looks to stall and spin for possibly a couple of days after this time frame as steering currents in the upper atmosphere are weak to none. Will it be inland or just off the coast? Where this happens is still a important question that needs to be answered. Extreme rainfall amounts are possible where Florence possibly stalls. A major flooding event is possible. You know where to find a no hype, no nonsense forecast.

Stay tuned.

Synopsis:

Mostly cloudy with scattered showers and storms are possible Today and Wednesday as a light southeast flow and trough of low pressure remains over the area. There will be dry times.

For Thursday into Friday our area should have a mix of sun and clouds. Will some moisture in the form of scattered showers working in off the ocean from Florence’s circulation occur? It’s a possibility. That will most likely be the only affect from the storm if it occurs. Rough surf and dangerous rip currents will definitely be an issue.

There are currently three storms in the Atlantic. Hurricane Florence, Tropical Storm Issac and Hurricane Helene.

Hurricane Florence is in the Atlantic well South of Bermuda. Florence as of this writing is a Category 4 hurricane with winds of over 140mph.

Synopsis:

Strong high pressure over Southeastern Canada will continue to provide a cool flow off the Northern Atlantic. A complex low pressure system will move into and through the region today. This combination will keep on and off rain in the forecast through today. There will be dry times. The rain could come down heavy at times, especially North and West of the City. A Flood Watch remains in effect through today for much of NJ. Total rainfall will range from 1″-3″. The highest totals will be over Northwestern NJ. It’ll be windy at the coast with gusts up to 40mph. The winds will abate later this afternoon. Minor coastal flooding and rough seas are expected through tonight.

Scattered showers and storms are possible on Tuesday as moist flow and weakness remains over the area.

Hurricane Florence continues to rapidly strengthen in the Atlantic well South of Bermuda. Florence will once again become a major hurricane today and Category 4 status or higher is imminent (Winds above 131mph). The models are in very good agreement that the hurricane will move close to the Carolina’s later Thursday into Friday morning. Pinpoint location of possible landfall is a huge question that will need some time to answer.. We’ll continue to track. While we track, please don’t concentrate on the exact line (map above), but rather the yellow cone of uncertainty.

Synopsis:

It’ll feel more like mid October today as Strong high pressure over Southeastern Canada provides a cool flow off the Northern Atlantic. Plenty of moisture will be to our South with a stationary front. This combination will keep rain in the forecast through Monday. Periods of heavy rain may occur later tonight into a part of Monday. A Flood Watch has been posted for much of NJ into Monday. 1″-3″ of rain could fall. The heaviest rainfall will occur North and West of the City. Minor coastal flooding and rough seas are expected through Monday.

Scattered showers and storms are possible on Tuesday. Unsettled times to say the least.

Tropical Storm Florence is churning in the far Atlantic. The storm should regain hurricane strength and has a high chance to become a “major” status-Category 3 or higher hurricane by Monday. Many of today’s models have come in close proximity to the SouthEast coast-Thursday into Friday. We’ll continue to track. The Carolina’s, at this time, have the greatest threat of a strike (map above). Please don’t concentrate on the exact line, but rather the yellow cone of uncertainty. The storm looks to stall and spin for possibly a couple of days after this time frame as steering currents in the upper atmosphere are weak to none. Will it be inland or just off the coast? Where this happens is still a important question that needs to be answered. Extreme rainfall amounts are possible where Florence possibly stalls. You know where to find a no hype, no nonsense forecast.

Stay tuned.

Synopsis:

The weekend right now looks much cooler-it’ll be a Fall preview for sure. Strong high pressure over Southeastern Canada will provide a cool flow off the Atlantic. Plenty of moisture will be to our South with a stationary front. This combination will keep skies more grey than bright. There’s a chance of spotty showers this morning. Much of the afternoon should be dry for maybe the exception of Southern NJ.  A swath of moisture will move into the region on Sunday. Intermittent rain in the morning will turn to a steadier rain by afternoon.  Periods of heavy rain may occur later Sunday into a part of Monday. A Flood Watch has been posted for much of NJ into Monday. 1″-3″ of rain could fall.

Scattered showers and storms are possible on Tuesday. Unsettled times to say the least.

Tropical Storm Florence is churning in the far Atlantic. The storm should regain hurricane strength and has a decent chance to become a “major” status-Category 3 or higher hurricane. Many of today’s models have come in close proximity to the SouthEast coast- 6 days from now. It is way too early for any prognostication on the specific track. Focusing on one model run/track is scientifically indefensible. We’ll continue to track. Confidence has grown that the storm will not turn out to sea between Bermuda and the US mainland. The Carolina’s, at this time, have the greatest threat of a strike (map above). You know where to find a no hype, no nonsense forecast.

Stay tuned.

Synopsis:

Relief has arrived. Mostly cloudy skies are expected today. Scattered showers are possible as the front moves to our South and slows. Readings will only be in the upper 70s (It was in the 90s yesterday). The average high for this date is 79º.

The weekend right now looks much cooler-it’ll be a Fall preview for sure. Strong high pressure over Southeastern Canada will provide a cool flow off the Atlantic. Plenty of moisture will be to our South with a stationary front. This combination will keep skies more grey than bright. There’s a chance of showers Saturday morning, and then again Sunday afternoon-meaning there will be dry times and a bit of sun from time to time. Temperatures will be well below average and could remain in the 60s for highs on Sunday. A far cry from the heat index of 102º today!

The workweek will start off with the threat of rain on Monday as front moves in.

Tropical Storm Florence is churning in the far Atlantic. Many of today’s models have come in proximity to the East coast- 6/7 days from now. It is way too early for any prognostication on the track. Focusing on one model run or any track is scientifically indefensible. We’ll continue to track. You know where to find a no hype, no nonsense forecast.

Synopsis:

The bubble of heat that has plagued the area for days will finally depart as a significant cool front works in later this evening and tonight.  Scattered showers and storms are possible into early tonight as the front works toward the region.

It’ll be unsettled as we head into next week.

Hurricane Florence is churning in the far Atlantic. Many of today’s models have come in proximity to the East coast- 7 days from now. It is way too early for any prognostication on the track and for those saying a hit is likely somewhere along the coast, at this time, is simply a discredit to the public.

The weekend right now looks much cooler with a mix of clouds and sun. There is a slight chance of showers Saturday morning, but the majority of the weekend should be dry. Temperatures will be several degrees below the average high of 80º. A Fall preview for sure.

Hurricane Florence is churning in the far Atlantic. There has been a lot of chatter of the storm coming close to the Eastern Seaboard.

Synopsis:

High pressure both at the surface and aloft will continue to influence our weather through Thursday. A September heatwave could very well be on the way if three consecutive days of 90º or higher occur. This might fall short as winds will be off the cooler ocean today. Many areas will remain below 90º. It won’t be as harsh but the humidity will remain high.

Scattered showers and storms are possible Thursday afternoon and evening as a cool front works toward the region.

Relief will arrive on Friday. Scattered showers are possible as the front moves to our South and slows.
