Synopsis:

Today will be a typical August day. It’ll be hazy with seasonal temperatures (mid 80s) with moderate levels of humidity. An isolated PM shower is possible.

Now for the weekend and Tropical Storm Henri. The storm is forecast to become a hurricane and move up the coast. The projected track is above. Eastern Long Island to Southern New England has the greatest potential of a landfall sometime Sunday. High surf and dangerous rip currents are a definite both weekend days.

When tropical offshore systems move up and off our coast many times an area of showers or storms moves ahead of it without a direct hit from the system. This looks to be the case for Saturday as the storm brings up some moisture and an upper level low moves toward the region. Sunday should feature some sun along with the chance of spotty showers from NYC to the West. Areas East of NYC may get into the bands of Henri with heavier rain and gusty winds. It all depends on the track.

Tropical Storm Watches and Hurricane Watches have been posted for areas East of NYC (map above). This is a good time to get hurricane prepared for these regions.

I’ve been forecasting in the NYC tri-state area for many years and I never let my guard down until a tropical system is North of our latitude. Please check back frequently to JMW for updates.

Hazy, warm and humid conditions will be with us for early next week.

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

Stay tuned.

Friday will be a typical August day. It’ll be hazy with seasonal temperatures (mid 80s) with moderate levels of humidity.

Now for the weekend and Tropical Storm Henri. The storm is forecast to become a hurricane and move up and well off our coast. The projected track is above. Southern New England has the greatest potential of seeing any affects from Henri. Our local beaches will experience high surf and dangerous rip currents. Please swim by guarded beaches.

In our region showers are possible Saturday as the storm brings up some moisture and an upper level low moves through. Sunday should feature some sun along with the chance of spotty showers.

Synopsis:

High pressure off the coast will result in a Southerly wind and a tropical connection. It will quite humid the next 24 hours. Today will feature a mix of clouds and sun. An isolated shower is possible. Readings will be near average high of the mid 80s.

The remnants of Tropical Storm Fred will move up the Appalachians and be at our latitude tonight and early Thursday morning. The potential is there for a period of rain, mainly for the Northern Half of the tri-state area. Once the system moves to our Northeast during the day Thursday any showers will give way to some sun.

Friday through the weekend look warm and moderately humid. A mix of sun and clouds is expected. There will not be a dominate weather system over the East coast. This will result in the chance of spotty showers or storms both weekend days. I wouldn’t cancel my outdoor plans.

Synopsis:

High pressure will move off the Eastern seaboard today and a weak disturbance to our West will result in more clouds. An isolated shower is possible, especially inland. Much of today will be dry.

Skies will mainly be grey Tuesday through Thursday as a moist Southerly flow develops around offshore high pressure. It will be more humid. Scattered showers are possible just about anytime.

The remnants of Tropical Storm Fred will move up the Appalachians and be at our latitude Wednesday night and Thursday. At this time, a period of steadier rain is possible. We’ll fine-tune that time period over the next 24 hours.  Temperatures through Thursday will be slightly below the average high of the lower to mid 80s.

The low should push off the coast by Friday resulting in more sunshine and warmer temperatures.

Stellar August conditions will continue into Monday. As the high moves off the Eastern seaboard a return flow of Southerly moist air will work in. This will result in more clouds Tuesday through Thursday with the chance of scattered showers. The humidity will creep up. Temperatures will be near average.
