From Record Warmth to a Cold Rain Thursday…

Synopsis:

An all time high for the month of February occurred today. The temperature at Central Park reached 78º breaking the monthly record high of 75 º set in 1930. The daily record was also broken. Today’s high of 78º shattered the the previous record for the day which was 68º set back. Simply amazing. Some coastal did not bask in the June heat because of a colder sea breeze.

A dramatic change is on the way for tomorrow. A cold front will move through by morning. At the same time cold high pressure will move into New England as a wave of low pressure moves into the area. The result will be on and off rain. It just maybe cold enough well North and West for some freezing rain or sleet at times (map above).

Unsettled times will continue right into the weekend as several areas of low pressure ride along the jet stream. It won’t be raining all the time, but the grey skies will win out.

Stay tuned

Mostly cloudy with scattered showers. Lows in the lower 40s in the City, the upper 30s inland. Southwest to Northeast winds at 5-10mph.

Thursday:

Sun to Clouds Today. Snow By Evening. Highest Accumulations Just Inland…

Synopsis:

High pressure will move off the coast today. It’ll be much colder than the last few days as sun will give way to clouds.

An area of low pressure developing over the Southern Virginia later today will strengthen some as it moves off the Delaware coast tonight. Snow will rapidly between 4-8pm from Southwest to Northeast and end before dawn Sunday. This will be a quick hitter but the snow may come down moderate to possibly heavy at times for a few hours tonight. The accumulation map is above. Rain or a mix is likely over Southern & Central NJ and parts of Long Island holding down amounts. The low confidence in the forecast is how much rain will occur on Long Island as warmer air tries to overspread the region. The sun will return Sunday with readings well into the 40s.

A strong Southeast ridge will redevelop next week. This will cause readings to once again feel like Spring. Temperatures will feel more like May by Tuesday.

Stay tuned.

Cold high pressure is slipping off the New England coast at the same time. Snow will rapidly develop Saturday evening and end before dawn Sunday. This will be a quick hitter but the snow may come down moderate to possibly heavy at times for a few hours Saturday Night. The accumulation map is above. Rain or a mix is likely over Southern NJ holding down amounts. The sun will return Sunday with readings well into the 40s.

Spring Fling. Into the 60’s for Many Today…

Synopsis:

High pressure off the coast will result a warm Southwest flow the next two days. It’ll be a Spring preview around here. Showers or a period of rain is likely again tonight and into early Friday morning. A front will slip to our South by Friday afternoon ending the well above average temperatures.

The weekend starts off tranquil with sunshine and colder temperatures. Many of the latest computer models now have an area of low pressure developing over the North Carolina area later Saturday. This low strengthens some as it moves off the Delaware coast late Saturday night. Cold high pressure is slipping off the New England coast at the same time. I’ve included a low threat of snow and or rain Saturday night into early Sunday morning. A few inches are possible. Please note that this is not etched in stone and confidence at this time is low. Whatever does materialize will be a quick hitter Saturday night and the sun will return Sunday morning with readings well above freezing during the day.

A strong Southeast ridge will redevelop next week. This will cause readings to once again feel like Spring. This round of well above average temperatures will be warmer than the lower 60s of tomorrow!

Stay tuned.

Today:

Early scattered showers otherwise a mix of clouds and sun. Balmy. Highs 50s to lower 60s. Cooler at the shore. Southwest winds at 5-10mph.

Becoming Mostly Sunny. Mild. Spring-like Thursday…

Synopsis:

High pressure will move off the coast today. The sun will return later this morning and afternoon with above average temperatures. The return flow around the high will bring in up mild air from the South through the end of the week. It’ll be a Spring preview around here by Thursday and Friday. Showers are likely tonight and then again on Friday as more disturbances move through. A front will slip to our South by Friday ending the well above average temperatures by next weekend.

The weekend starts off tranquil with sunshine and colder temperatures. Many of the latest computer models now have an area of low pressure developing over the Tennessee Valley later Saturday. This low strengthens some as it moves off the Delaware coast late Saturday night. Cold high pressure is slipping off the New England coast at the same time. I’ve included a low threat of snow and or rain Saturday night into early Sunday morning. Please note that this is not etched in stone and confidence at this time is low. For this to become a higher potential we’d need a few consecutive runs showing the same scenario. Whatever the case the sun will return midday Sunday.

A strong Southeast ridge will redevelop next week. This will cause readings to once again feel like Spring.

Stay tuned.

Today:

Becoming mostly sunny. Mild. Highs around 50º. Southwest winds at 5-10mph.
