High Impact Heavy Wet Snowstorm for Most of the Tri-State Area…

Synopsis:

A high impact storm will affect the region today and tonight. A storm is developing along the Mid-Atlantic coast. This storm will intensify at a good clip and move up the coast today. The latest computer models continue with a coastal hugger. All the models are cranking out heavy precipitation totals. The potential continues to increase for heavy snow for most of the area. Even though the storm will be so close to the coast, the upper level low will deepen rapidly and supply the cold air. Along the coast, Central and Southern NJ and over Eastern Long Island some rain or a mix will occur. This should keep accumulations much lower.

This will not as potent as the last Nor’easter with wind and coastal flooding but snow may fall in a larger area.  Wind gusts to 45mph are likely later today especially along the coast. Heavy wet snow accumulations on trees and power lines may cause scattered power outages. Minor coastal flooding is possible at the times of high tide.

The possible snow amounts are above and they are significant.

The brunt of the storm will be during the afternoon and early evening. Snow may fall at 1″ to 2″/hr. causing near whiteout conditions. It will be dangerous to be outdoors. The snow will taper off from West to East during the evening.

Tranquil conditions are expected for the end of the workweek.

Stay tuned.

Today:

Snow. Becoming heavy at times. Snow/mix or rain at the coast.  Windy. Highs in the mid 30s. Northeast 15-30mph with gusts to 45mph.

Tonight:

Snow (rain out East) ending from West to East during the evening. Lows near freezing in the City, the 20s inland. Northwest wind diminishing to 10-20mph.

Thursday:

Partly sunny. Highs in the lower to mid 40s.

Friday:

Partly sunny. Highs in the lower to mid 40s.

Saturday:

High Impact Storm for Wednesday. Heavy Wet Snow, Rain & Wind…

Synopsis:

A high impact storm will affect the region tonight though Wednesday night. A weak low over the upper Ohio Valley will dissipate as a secondary storm develops over coastal North Carolina tonight. This storm will intensify at a good clip and move up the coast on Wednesday. The latest computer models have come in unison on a general solution- a coastal hugger. All the models are cranking out heavy precipitation totals. The potential continues to increase for heavy snow for most of the area. Even though the storm will be so close to the coast, the upper level low will deepen rapidly and supply the cold air. Along the coast, Central and Southern NJ and over Eastern Long Island some rain or a mix will occur. This should keep accumulations much lower.

This will not as potent as the last Nor’easter with wind and coastal flooding but snow may fall in a larger area.  Wind gusts to 45mph are likely later tomorrow especially along the coast. Heavy wet snow accumulations on trees and power lines may cause scattered power outages. Minor coastal flooding is possible at the times of high tide.

The possible snow amounts are above and they are significant.

The snow and rain will start toward midnight and get steady and heavier during the day on Wednesday. The brunt of the storm will be during the afternoon and early evening. Snow may fall at 1″ to 2″/hr. causing near whiteout conditions. It will be dangerous to be outdoors. The snow will taper off from West to East during the evening.

Tranquil conditions are expected for the end of the workweek.

Stay tuned.

Calm Before the Storm. Winter Storm Watch Wednesday…

Synopsis:

High pressure will continue to nose in from Canada resulting in sun and clouds and seasonal readings tomorrow.

Another storm threat is on the way-Wednesday will be the day of concern. A weak low over the upper Ohio Valley will dissipate as a secondary storm develops over coastal North Carolina Tuesday night. This storm will intensify at a good clip and move up the coast on Wednesday. The latest computer models have come in unison on a general solution- a coastal hugger. All the models are cranking out heavy precipitation totals. The potential is there for heavy snow. Even though the storm will be so close to the coast, the upper level low will deepen rapidly and supply the cold air. Along the coast and over Eastern Long Island some rain or a mix will occur. Here too the cold air will win out and snow will eventually prevail. A Winter Storm Watch is up for most of the tri-state area for Wednesday.

This will not as potent as the last Nor’easter with wind and coastal flooding but snow may fall in a larger area.  The possible snow amounts are above and they are significant. This amounts will change as we get closer to the event and are not etched in stone.

The snow will start before the AM commute on Wednesday and end Wednesday night.

Tranquil conditions are expected for the end of the workweek.

March has roared in and the latest extended computer guidance suggests another storm threat is on the map for Sunday and next Monday.

Stay tuned.

Tranquil Start to the Workweek. Winter Storm Watch Wednesday…

Synopsis:

High pressure will continue to nose in from Canada resulting in sun and clouds and seasonal readings both today and tomorrow.

Another storm threat is on the way-Wednesday will be the day of concern. A weak low over the upper Ohio Valley will dissipate as a secondary storm develops over coastal North Carolina Tuesday night. This storm will intensify at a good clip and move up the coast on Wednesday. The latest computer models are split in their solution. One set of models take the storm on a track farther offshore meaning a light amount of snow will fall. The other set take the storm just miles off the coast and give the area a heavy snowfall. At this time, the upper level of the atmosphere look to form a more robust low this in turn would keep the low just offshore and heavier precipitation over the area. The potential is there for heavy snow. This is not etched in stone. A Winter Storm Watch is up for most of the tri-state area for Wednesday. Rain or a mix is possible at or close to the coast and to the South. These details will be ironed out as we get closer to the event and for this reason a Watch has not been posted for parts of Central and Southern NJ.

This will not as potent as the last Nor’easter with wind and coastal flooding but snow may fall in a larger area.  The first call possible snow amounts are above. This amounts will change as we get closer to the event and are no way etched in stone.

The snow will start before the AM commute on Wednesday and end Wednesday night.

Tranquil conditions are expected for the end of the workweek.

March has roared in and the latest extended computer guidance suggests another storm threat is on the map for Sunday and next Monday.

Tranquil Start to the Workweek. Storm Threat-Wednesday…

Synopsis:

High pressure will continue to nose in from Canada resulting in sun and clouds and seasonal readings both Monday and Tuesday.

Another storm threat is on the way-Wednesday will be the day of concern. A weak low over the upper Ohio Valley will dissipate as a secondary storm develops over coastal North Carolina Tuesday night. This storm will intensify at a good clip and move up the coast on Wednesday. Most of the computer models are in good agreement with this track with some minor differences. With such a unisen in the output there a moderate potential of accumulating snow for a large part of the tri-state area. The second map above is the GFS model which shows the snow (purple) and some rain at the coast. Rain or a mix is possible at or close to the coast but these details will be ironed out as we get closer to the event. Again, this is for Wednesday. This will not as potent as the last Nor’easter with wind and coastal flooding but snow may fall in a larger area.  Several inches of snow is possible if the latest track comes to fruition.

Tranquil conditions are expected for the end of the workweek.

Nor’Easter. Rain, Wet Snow & High Winds…

 

Synopsis:

March will come in like a lion. A rapidly developing storm will be off the Long Island coast today. The exact location of this second storm and how it moves will determine our specific weather conditions. The latest computer models continue with the storm bombing off or over Eastern Long Island and doing a loop de loop just offshore. There maybe a lull in the rain during the morning hours but once that storm does that loop off the coast the backside of the storm will affect the region. This is when rain will go over to wet snow at times mainly away from the coast. The accumulation will depend on your elevation. Some region may pick up a significant amount. Don’t be surprised even closer to the coast if a heavy wet snow falls for a time.

A Flood Watch has been posted for Friday for potential of 1-3″ of rain. The ground is saturated and heavy rain will quickly lead to flooding of streets, streams and creeks.

High Wind Warnings and advisories have been posted for the potential of wind gusts of 5o to 60mph. Power outages are possible.

Coastal tidal flooding is possible at the time of high tide Friday and Saturday. Tides of 1-3′ above normal is expected.

Winter Storm Warnings and advisories  have been posted for heavy wet snow over the higher elevations inland.

Please check in frequently as this could become a rapidly deteriorating situation on Friday.

The storm finally pulls off our coastline to the Southeast Friday night, ending the precipitation but the winds will be strong.

Saturday will be very windy with clouds and sun. Sunday the winds will ease some under sunny skies. Both days will feature highs in the 40s.

Stay tuned.

Today:

Rain. A mix of rain and wet snow is possible inland. There is a moderate potential for the rain to completely go over to wet snow inland. An accumulation is likely over the higher elevations and may occur closer to the coast. Becoming very windy. Highs in the 40s, 30s inland. North to Northwest winds at 20-35mph with gust to 5o to 60mph.

Tonight:

Rain and wet snow. Very windy. Lows in the mid 30s in the City, near freezing inland. Northwest winds at 20-35mph with gusts to 55mph.

Saturday:

Clouds and some sun. Windy. Highs in the mid 40s.

Sunday:

Mostly sunny. The winds will ease some. Highs in the mid 40s.

Monday:

Sunny. Highs in the mid to upper 40s.
