Unsettled autumn weather this weekend
It has been a busy week.Strong thunderstorms which produced damaging winds in New England, a blood red moon and lunar eclipse, and noticeable temperature swings have all made news over the past several days But, finally,some tranquil weather settled into the area on Wednesday and Thursday when highs reached the 70’s and sun was plentiful. The weekend, unfortunately, won’t follow the same path. An approaching disturbance is likely to bring unsettled weather to the area from later tonight through Saturday.
High clouds from the associated system have already filtered into the area this afternoon, in response to the first disturbance moving through the Ohio Valley. This lead disturbance will bring continued cloudiness, as well as a chance of showers to the Mid-Atlantic and southern portions of our area…including Southern New Jersey. This lead disturbance will remain relatively weak and slide offshore, so we aren’t expecting a washout by any means on Friday.
