Synopsis:

The forecast snow amounts for this system panned out. Coastal areas were wet, while inland areas received significant snowfall.

The low will move to near Cape Cod this afternoon. Clouds will linger and an intermittent light mix of snow and rain is possible. Temperatures will be marginal for an accumulating snow in most areas with the exception being regions to the North. Maybe an inch or two at most. Skies will become partly cloudy tonight with a refreeze of slush to the North and West.

High pressure will move in on Monday bringing with it the sun.

A significant storm will affect the area later Tuesday into Wednesday morning. Heavy rain, high winds and balmy temperatures are anticipated.

High pressure will move in for the end of the week. Temperatures will remain above the average high of the upper 30s under a mix of sun and clouds.

The next system will affect the region Friday night into Saturday. At this time it looks like a warm track with mainly rain.

Stay tuned.

Keep it here for a no nonsense, no hype forecast.

Becoming partly cloudy. Highs in the mid 30s, the 20s inland. Northwest winds at 8-12mph

Monday:

Sunny. Highs around 40º.

Tuesday:

Thickening clouds. Rain developing during the afternoon. Milder. Highs around 50º.

Wednesday:

Rain ends before sunrise becoming partly cloudy. Windy. Mild. Spotty afternoon showers.  Highs in the mid 50s.

Partly sunny. Highs in the mid 40s.

Friday:

Partly sunny. Highs in the mid 40s.

 

Synopsis:

A few hours of heavy snow is likely Northwest of the I-95 corridor later today into early this evening. This is when the accumulation will occur before a changeover to a mix of sleet and rain. Steady, heavy snow will continue over the Northwestern counties into tonight. While rain is likely to the Southeast of I-95. The precipitation will taper off later tonight and possible go over to a light mix North and West as well.

Winter Storm Warnings have been posted (map above). It has been a couple of years since much of our region has had significant snow.

There will be only marginally cold air to work with as the low moves up and along our coast. Ocean water temperatures are in the upper 40s and cold high pressure has retreated farther into Canada, hence the rain by the coast.

Potential accumulation map is above. From wet grounds to nearly a foot in spots to the North. Man, I love meteorology!

The low will move South of Eastern Long Island to near Cape Cod on Sunday. Clouds will linger and an intermittent light mix of snow and rain is possible. Temperatures will be marginal for an accumulating snow in most areas with the exception being regions to the North. Maybe an inch or two at most.

High pressure will move in on Monday bringing with it the sun.

A significant storm will affect the area later Tuesday into Wednesday morning. Heavy rain, high winds and balmy temperatures are anticipated.

Stay tuned.

Tonight:

Snow, mix or rain depending on location. Lows in the mid 30s in the City, around freezing inland. East to Northeast winds at 10-20mph with gusts to 30mph at the coast.

Sunday:

Intermittent light snow North and West. Light snow/rain to the South and East. Highs in the upper 30s.  North to Northwest winds at 8-12mph.

Monday:

Sunny. Highs around 40º.

Tuesday:

Increasing clouds. Rain developing during the afternoon. Milder. Highs in the mid 50s.

Wednesday:

Rain ends around sunrise becoming partly cloudy. Windy. Mild. Spotty afternoon showers.  Highs in the mid 50s.

Thursday:

Partly sunny. Highs in the mid 40s.

 

Synopsis:

A storm will develop over the Southeast today. Clouds will thicken during the morning and snow or rain will develop between 3 and 6pm from Southwest to Northeast. The I-95 corridor looks to be the rain/snow line between for the beginning of this event.

Significant snow is likely North and West of the City tonight. Winter Storm Warnings have been posted (map above). It has been a couple of years since much of our region has had significant snow.

There will be only marginally cold air to work with as the low moves up and along our coast. Ocean water temperatures are in the upper 40s. This all translates to a difficult chore in keeping snow as the main precipitation type over much of the coast and the I-95 corridor. A slushy coating is possible along the corridor, then rain is expected. There looks to be a good thump of snow at the onset for many inland regions just North and West of I-95 this evening. A couple of inches may fall in a short period of time. Then a mix is expected. Inland, it will be just cold enough for the heavy snow potential. Several inches to close to a foot may fall. The last call snow map is above. Inland areas may see a mix as the heaviest precipitation moves out later tonight.

The low will move South of Eastern Long Island to near Cape Cod on Sunday. Clouds will linger and an intermittent light mix of snow and rain is possible. Temperatures will be marginal for an accumulating snow in most areas with the exception being regions to the North. Maybe an inch or two at most.

High pressure will move in on Monday bringing with it the sun.

A significant storm will affect the area later Tuesday into Wednesday morning. Heavy rain, high winds and balmy temperatures are anticipated.

Stay tuned.

Saturday:

Thickening clouds. Late day light snow or rain. Highs in the upper 30s. East winds at 8-12mph.

Tonight:

Snow, mix or rain depending on location. Lows in the mid 30s in the City, around freezing inland. East to Northeast winds at 10-20mph with gusts to 30mph at the coast.

Sunday:

Chance of light snow. Mix to the South and East. Highs in the upper 30s.

Monday:

Sunny. Highs around 40º.

Tuesday:

Increasing clouds. Rain developing during the afternoon. Milder. Highs in the mid 50s.

Wednesday:

Morning rain becoming partly sunny. Windy. Mild.  Highs in the mid 50s.

 

Synopsis:

A storm will develop off the Carolina coast and move out to sea today. The clouds and sun will battle it out but the sun will win out as the day continues. It’ll be come breezy as a cold front sweeps through and the storm intensifies well out to sea.

Cold high pressure will influence our area on Friday. It’ll be bright with a nip in the air.

A storm will develop along the Gulf coast on Saturday. Morning sun will give way to increasing clouds. Light snow or rain will possibly develop later in the day. The I-95 corridor looks to be the rain/snow line between for the beginning of this event.

The potential is there for an accumulating snow for inland and Northwestern regions Saturday night into Sunday. It has been a couple of years since much of our region has had significant snow.

As of this writing it looks like there will be only marginally cold air to work with as the low moves up and along our coast. Ocean water temperatures are in the upper 40s. This all translates to a difficult chore in keeping snow as the main precipitation type over much of the coast and to the South of the City. Inland, the potential for several inches of snow exists. The first guess snow map, a generalization of what may transpire is above. This map will get updated several more times until the event nears Saturday night and Sunday morning.

Stay tuned.

Synopsis:

High pressure over the Southeast will dominate our region today. Abundant sunhine and just above average temperatures are anticipated. The average high is around 40º.

A storm will develop off the Carolina coast and move out to sea Thursday. No precipitation is expected although clouds will filter our sky. The sun will dominate by afternoon.

Cold high pressure will influence our area on Friday. It’ll be bright with a nip in the air.

A storm will develop along the Gulf coast on Saturday. Morning sun will give way to increasing clouds. Light snow or rain will possibly develop later in the day. The I-95 corridor looks to be the rain/snow line between for the beginning of this event.

The potential is there for an accumulating snow for parts of the region Saturday night into Sunday. It has been a couple of years since much of our region has had significant snow.

There will be changes in projected storm track, intensity and precipitation amounts the next few days. Today’s guidance (a possible trend) is: a track closer to the coast, slightly warmer, slightly weaker, but a meteorologist knows you cannot model hug. Best guess at this timeframe. Higher amounts of snow North and West with the possibility of a mix or change to rain for a time at the coast and to the South. Could several inches fall North and West? Yes. May parts of Central and Southern NJ see little in the way of accumulation, it’s possible. We continue to track at JMW. Those who know me know I am not an alarmist. I will sound the bell when conditions warrant and we are way too far away from this event to even think about that. Don’t believe the hype out there.

Stay tuned.
