From Spring-Like Conditions to Snowstorm Tomorrow…

 

Synopsis:.

Rapidly changing weather conditions will occur in the next 12 hours.

Temperatures reached into the 60s for record highs in some areas on Wednesday. Spring-like indeed.

A dramatic change will take place tonight into Thursday. Cold air will rush into the region. At the same time an area of low pressure will move in from the Mid-Atlantic and off the NJ coast. The latest computer models are much more robust than previous runs with the storm’s strength and precipitation. A mix of rain and snow will develop late tonight and turn to snow quickly by early Thursday morning. It now looks like 6″-12″+ of snow is possible (map above). The snow will be heavy at times during the morning. Snowfall rates of 1″-2″/hr are expected with whiteout conditions and thunder snow possible.  Winds will gust between 30-45mph. A Blizzard Warning is in effect for Suffolk County, Long Island.

Spring Like Today. Quick Hitting Significant Snow Thursday…

Rapidly changing weather conditions will occur in the next 24 hours.

A cool front will push offshore during the morning with a spot shower. The majority of the day will be dry with the sun making an appearance from time to time. The cold air is lagging behind by about one hundred miles. For this reason Spring-like readings are expected. Highs will be around 60º.

A dramatic change will take place tonight into Thursday. Cold air will rush into the region. At the same time an area of low pressure will move in from the Mid-Atlantic and off the NJ coast. The latest computer models are consistent from previous runs with the storm’s strength and precipitation. A mix of rain and snow will develop late tonight and turn to snow quickly by early Thursday morning. There is the potential for a plowable snow of 5″-9″+ (map above). The snow could come down heavy at times during the morning. This is a quick hitter with the brunt of the storm from 4am-11am. The snow will taper off mid-day to early afternoon. Please Stay Tuned.

Spring Like Wednesday. Potential Significant Snow Thursday…

 

Synopsis:.

Rapidly changing weather conditions will occur in the next 48 hours.  A warm front will push through tonight with rising temperatures and scattered showers. Lows will be higher than the average high for the day.

On Wednesday a cool front will push offshore during the morning with a few showers. The majority of the day will be dry with the sun making an appearance from time to time. The cold air is lagging behind by about one hundred miles. For this reason Spring-like readings are expected. Highs will be around 60º.

A dramatic change will take place Wednesday night into Thursday. Cold air will rush into the region. At the same time an area of low pressure will move in from the Mid-Atlantic and off the NJ coast. The latest computer models are more robust with the storm’s strength and precipitation. A mix of rain and snow will develop late Wednesday night and turn to snow quickly by early Thursday morning. There is the potential for a plowable snow of 4″-8″+ (map above). The snow could come down heavy at times during the morning. These amounts are highly subject to change but the potential of a significant snowfall has increased. The snow will taper off mid-day to early afternoon. Please Stay Tuned.

Bright, Tranquil Start to Workweek…

 

Synopsis:.

Today high pressure to the South will provide the region with a decent start to the workweek with just above seasonal averages for this time of the year.

A complex storm system will move into the area tomorrow and Wednesday. On and off rain is likely with Spring-like readings.

A new development is on the maps with the latest computer guidance for Thursday morning.  Once the cold front moves offshore Wednesday night a wave of low pressure over Texas will ride along the front and off the coast.  If the wave is close enough it’s shield of rain and snow may graze coastal areas Thursday morning.  This is a low potential at this time but needs to be addressed. Temperatures will go from Spring-like to Winter in a matter of hours so if the precipitation does fall it would be rain changing to snow.  Stay Tuned.

Today:

Mostly sunny. Highs in the lower to mid 40’s. Northwest to Southwest wind at 5-10mph.

Tonight:

Increasing clouds. Chance of rain late. Pockets of freezing rain possible well inland. Lows around 40º in the City, near freezing inland. Southwest to Southeast winds at 5mph.

Tuesday:

Periods of rain. Mild. Highs in the upper 40s to lower 50s.

Wednesday:

Mostly cloudy with scattered showers. Balmy. Highs in the mid to upper 50s.

Thursday:

Slight chance of morning snow, especially at the coast, otherwise becoming partly sunny and much colder with readings in the mid 30s.

Friday:

Sunny and cold with highs in the mid 30s.

No Weather Worries Superbowl Sunday…

 

Synopsis:.

A weak storm will move across the US/Canadian border and into Maine. This system is moisture starved and will result in more clouds today with mild temperatures.

A complex storm system will move into the area Tuesday and Wednesday. On and off rain is likely with Spring-like readings. Colder readings will push in by late week.

The pattern looks horrible for any snow for the tri-state as we look down the pike.

Today:

A mix of clouds and sun. Not as cold. Highs in the lower to mid 40s. Southwest to West winds at 10-20mph.

Tonight:

Partly cloudy. Lows around freezing in the City, the 20’s inland. West to Northwest winds at 8-12mph.
