Synopsis:

Thursday will feature high pressure over the Southeast. A more temperate flow around this system should have readings flirting with freezing along the urban corridor. Any morning sun will give way to increasing clouds.

Clouds will thicken tonight with all readings below freezing.

Now to Friday’s snow-low pressure will develop offshore. How close does this happen to the coast and where does the surface trough setup will determine who gets what in terms of snowfall. Where that axis sets up with the trough will be where the maximum snowfall occurs. The guidance has areas to the North seeing the least with areas to the South of the City receiving the highest accumulations.  The thinking is a light event here- a possible 1″-3″ for the region. Inland central  & Southern NJ may find a few spots near or over 4″. The snow will start Friday morning between 7-9am and continue throughout the day.

Saturday will be frigid as an Arctic blast makes a visit. Readings will only be in the 20s. The windchills will be quite low.

Sunday readings under abundant sunshine should recover to around freezing.

We’ll be out of the freezer on Monday as the high moves off the coast and a milder flow takes hold.

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

Thursday:

Increasing clouds. Highs around freezing. West to Southwest winds at 8-12mph.

Tonight:

Cloudy. Lows in the upper 20s along the urban corridor, the upper teens and 20s inland. Winds becoming North at 5mph.

Friday:

Light snow likely. Highs around 30º.

Saturday:

Partly sunny, windy and frigid. Highs in the 20s.

Sunday:

Sunny. Highs around freezing.

Monday:

Sunny. Highs in the mid to upper 30s.

 

Synopsis:

Today and Thursday will feature partly sunny skies and cold temperatures as high pressure over the Southeast dominates our weather. Today’s wind will add a bite, the mid 20s will feel more like the teens. The wind will abate by Thursday as readings approach freezing under thickening clouds.

Now to Friday’s potential. At this time it looks like a light event. Low pressure will develop offshore. How close does this happen and where does the surface trough setup will determine who gets what in terms of snowfall. Where that axis sets up with the trough will be where the maximum snowfall occurs. The guidance has areas to the North seeing the least with areas to the South of the City receiving the highest accumulations. That’s the latest setup and very well may change some in two days. Again, thinking a light event here- a possible 1″-3″ for the region. It may snow lightly all day Friday. Stay tuned.

Saturday will be frigid as an Arctic blast makes a visit. Readings will only be in the 20s.

Sunday won’t be as harsh with temperatures recovering to around freezing.

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

Wednesday:

Mostly sunny. Very cold. Highs in the mid 20s. West winds at 10-20mph with gusts to 30mph.

Tonight:

Partly cloudy. Cold. Lows in the lower 20s along the urban corridor, the teens inland. Northwest winds diminishing to 8-12mph.

Thursday:

Partly sunny. Highs around freezing.

Friday:

Light snow likely. Highs around 30º.

Saturday:

Partly sunny, windy and frigid. Highs in the 20s.

Sunday:

Mostly sunny. Highs around freezing.

 

Synopsis:

Low pressure will be developing off the NJ coast today. Areas of snow, sleet, freezing rain and rain are expected. The precipitation may end over Southern sections by late morning or midday. There will most likely be an enhanced area of precipitation for a time later this morning into early afternoon away from the coast. A couple more inches of snow is possible here along with a coating of ice. Untreated surfaces will be treacherous. Temperatures will hover around freezing.

Clear and cold tonight. Temperatures will fall well below freezing. Any slush will refreeze solid.

Wednesday and Thursday will feature partly sunny skies and cold temperatures as high pressure over the Southeast dominates our weather. Readings will be at or below the 32º mark.

On Friday, a storm will develop off the coast. Many of the computer models are showing a bit of snow over the region. At this time there is a low potential of accumulating snow. I am leaning toward the light side. Still a few days to see how this all plays out.

Saturday will be frigid as an Arctic blast makes a visit. Readings will only be in the 20s.

Tuesday:

Snow, mix, rain depending on location. Ending in the South during the late morning, elsewhere during the mid-afternoon. Highs around freezing. Northeast to Northwest winds at 8-12mph.

Tonight:

Clearing skies. Cold. Lows around 20º along the urban corridor, the teens inland. Northwest winds at 10-20mph.

Wednesday:

Partly sunny. Cold. Highs in the upper 20s.

Thursday:

Partly sunny. Highs around freezing.

Friday:

Light snow potential. Highs around 30º.

Saturday:

Partly sunny, windy and frigid. Highs in the 20s.

 

Synopsis:

Light snow will develop from Southwest to Northeast this evening from 7pm to 11pm as a swath of snow moves up from the South. A low will develop off the Mid-Atlantic and move Northeast Tuesday. The latest computer guidance has the low closer to the coast with slightly heavier precipitation amounts. For this reason a 2″-4″ snowfall is expected for much of the region. A mix to sleet and freezing rain is possible as well on Tuesday. The precipitation may end over Southern sections by mid morning. Most areas will see the snow or mix end during the mid afternoon time frame. Temperatures will hover around freezing on Tuesday.

Synopsis:

The Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Day will be cold with highs near freezing. Clouds will roll in during the afternoon.

Light snow will develop from Southwest to Northeast this evening from 8pm to 11pm as a swath of snow moves up from the South. A low will develop off the Mid-Atlantic and move Northeast Tuesday. The latest computer has the low closer to the coast with slightly heavier precipitation amounts. For this reason, I may be upping the potential snow graphic amounts slightly. Maybe more of a 2″-4″ for much of the region. A mix to sleet and freezing rain is possible as well. The precipitation may end over Southern sections later in the morning. Most areas will see the snow or mix end during the mid afternoon time frame.

Wednesday and Thursday will feature partly sunny skies and cold temperatures as high pressure over the Southeast dominates our weather . Highs will be around freezing.

On Friday, a storm will develop off the coast. Many of the computer models are showing a bit of snow over the region. At this time there is a low potential of accumulating snow. I am hedging toward the light side. Stay tuned.

MLK Day:

Sun to afternoon clouds. Cold. Highs in the lower 30s. West 5-1omph.

Tonight:

Snow developing this evening and continuing overnight. Lows in the 20s throughout. West to Northeast at 5mph.

Tuesday:

Snow, possible mix. Highs around freezing.

Wednesday:

Partly sunny. Cold. Highs in the upper 20s.

Thursday:

Partly sunny. Highs around freezing.

Friday:

Low snow potential. Highs around 30º.

 

Synopsis:

An Arctic front will approach the region later this morning through early afternoon. Scattered snow showers and snow squalls are possible at this time. Not all areas will see the snow. A snow squall is a brief burst of heavy snow and high winds that dramatically reduces visibility. A quick coating is possible. Roadways quickly can become treacherous. Please use caution. Readings will be near average-the upper 30s, and then drop a few degrees later in the day. Skies will be partly sunny with the exception of when the rapidly moving front moves through.

The Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Day will be bright and cold with highs near freezing.

A low will develop off the Southeast coast on Tuesday. The track of the low looks to stay far enough off the coast to only brush the area with light snow. The potential for a coating of snow is there.

Wednesday and Thursday will feature partly sunny skies and cold temperatures. Highs will be around freezing.

Already there is chatter about some storm Friday . Folks, you know where I stand on all of this. Don’t believe the hype. Many days to follow any development. At this time there is a low potential of some snow.

Stay tuned.

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

Sunday:

Partly sunny. Rapidly moving midday to early afternoon scattered snow showers or snow squalls. Becoming windy. Seasonable. Highs upper 30s, then temperatures will drop some during the afternoon. Southwest to West winds increasing to 15-25mph with gusts to 40mph.

Tonight:

Mostly clear and cold. Lows in the lower 20s in the City, the teens inland. West winds at 15-25mph with gusts to 30mph in the evening. Winds will diminish late.

MLK Day:

Partly sunny. Cold. Highs in the lower 30s.

Tuesday:

Light snow likely. Highs around 30º.

Wednesday:

Partly sunny. Cold. Highs around 30º.

Thursday:

Partly sunny. Highs around freezing.

 

Synopsis:

The storm that gave the area heavy rains and gusty winds has moved out of the region. Temperatures will be very mild this morning with a lull in the wind. The wind will pick up dramatically later in the morning out of the West as a cool front moves through with scattered showers.  Temperatures will drop once the front moves through and continue their decline throughout the afternoon.

An Arctic front will approach the region later Sunday morning through midday. Scattered snow showers or even a snow squall is possible at this time. Readings will be near average-the upper 30s, and then drop a few degrees later in the day. Skies will be partly sunny with the exception of when the rapidly moving front moves through.

The Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Day will be bright and cold with highs near freezing.

The extended computer guidance continues to develop a low off the Southeast coast on Tuesday. The track of the low is still yet to be determined. If the low moves more North than East there will be a snow event here. If the low moves more East then North just a few snow showers will occur. At this time it looks like a bit of light snow may fall.

Wednesday will feature partly sunny skies and coldest temperatures of the season so far. Highs will remain in the mid and upper 20s.

Stay tuned.

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

Saturday:

Morning shower, otherwise a mix of clouds and sun. Early morning highs in the 50s, temperatures will drop into the 40s during the day. Windy. West winds increasing 15-30mph with gusts to 40mph.

Tonight:

Partly cloudy. Windy early. Lows around freezing in the City, the 20s inland. West winds at 15-25mph with gusts to 40mph during the evening. Winds will diminish late.

Sunday:

Partly sunny. Rapidly moving midday snow showers or a snow squall. Seasonable. Highs upper 30s.

MLK Day:

Partly sunny. Cold. Highs in the lower 30s.

Tuesday:

Low to moderate potential of some snow. Highs around 30º.

Wednesday:

Partly sunny. Cold. Highs in the upper 20s.

 

Synopsis:

A storm will affect the region tonight into early Saturday morning with rain. Amazingly this storm will take the same track as its predecessor. An inland track meaning rain once again. The rain will develop between 7pm and 10pm. The brunt of the storm will be between 11pm and 5am. The thinking is it will not be nearly as severe as the last storm. 1/2 inches to 1 1/2 inches of rain is possible and winds will be gusty. A Flood Watch has been posted for areas North and West of the City. Flooding will once again be a concern as rivers and streams are high or at flood stage. Winds will gust out of the Southeast between 40-55mph with the highest gusts being at the coast. A few trees may topple do to the completely saturated soil and strong gusts.

Rain over Eastern sections will end around sunrise Saturday. The wind will diminish rapidly throughout the region in the early morning, but then pick up dramatically later in the morning out of the West as a cool front moves through with scattered showers.  Temperatures will start off mild around sunrise and drop throughout the day as a cool front pushes offshore.

Sunday will be the tranquil weekend day with abundant sunshine and seasonable readings as Canadian air settles upon the region. Average highs are in the upper 30s.

The Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Day will be bright and cold with highs near freezing.

The extended computer guidance continues to develop a low off the Southeast coast on Tuesday. The track of the low is yet to be determined. As of this writing there is a low to moderate potential of some snow.

Wednesday will feature partly sunny skies and coldest temperatures of the season so far. Highs will remain in the mid and upper 20s.

Synopsis:

High pressure over the Southeast will influence our conditions today. Friday will start off bright but clouds will increase and thicken as the next storm starts heading our way. Readings will be several degrees above the average high of the upper 30s.

A low will affect the region tonight into early Saturday morning with rain. Amazingly this storm will take the same track as its predecessor. An inland track meaning rain once again. The rain will develop between 6pm and 9pm. The brunt of the storm will be between 10pm and 4am. The thinking is it will not be nearly as severe as the last storm. 1/2 inches to 1 1/2 inches of rain is possible and winds will be gusty. A Flood Watch has been posted for areas North and West of the City. Flooding will once again be a concern as rivers and streams are high or at flood stage. Winds will gust out of the Southeast between 40-55mph with the highest gusts being at the coast. A few trees may topple do to the completely saturated soil and strong gusts.

Clouds and early morning showers Saturday should break for some sun during the day. It’ll be windy. Temperatures will start off mild during the wee hours of the morning and drop through the day.

Sunday will be the tranquil weekend day with abundant sunshine and chilly readings as Canadian air settles upon the region.

The Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Day will be bright and cold with highs a few degrees below average.

Looking down the pike JMW is monitoring the extended computer guidance. It looks like a low wants to develop along along the Southeast coast on Tuesday. The track of the low is yet to be determined. As of this writing there is a low potential of some snow.

Stay tuned.

Synopsis:

High pressure over the Southeast will influence our conditions through Friday. Today will feature a mix of sun and clouds with readings a few degrees above the average high of the upper 30s. Friday will start off bright but clouds will increase and thicken as the next storm starts heading our way.

The low will affect the region Friday night into early Saturday morning with rain. Amazingly this storm will take the same track as its predecessor. An inland track meaning rain once again. The thinking is it will not be as severe as the last storm. One to two inches of rain is possible and winds will be gusty. Flooding will once again be a concern as river and streams are high or above flood stage.
