Summer Warmth & T-Storms Possible Late Week in the Northeast

Finally, a nice warmer stretch of weather is upon us! A developing storm system that will bring some severe weather with perhaps some tornadoes, over the Plains, during the next few days, will cause strong ridging to build over the Ohio and Tennessee Valleys and then into the Northeast US, for rest of this week. More sunshine and westerly downsloping winds will help temperatures rise into the middle to upper 70s this afternoon. Skies will remain mostly clear tonight with the ridge axis over the region. It will be a warm, comfortable Spring evening. Then during the overnight hours, temperatures will drop into the lower 60s over New York City and urban areas, while lows will be in the mid-upper 50s, over many of the suburbs.

Much Warmer Late Week, Cooler & Wetter Sunday & Monday

Wednesday’s Weather Rating | 6/10 (Fair)

Good morning! We come bearing good news. Temperatures will begin moderating closer to seasonable levels over the next couple of days, which will lead us to very warm temperatures on Friday and Saturday. High temperatures may approach 80 degrees in many areas for the first time this year! By Sunday, however, much cooler air is likely to return, as a backdoor cold front moves to the south from New England. Another large storm system threatens to bring the region heavy rainfall by Sunday night and Monday.

Spring weather finally on the way later this week

Monday’s Weather Rating | 5/10 (Fair)

At long last.

Forecast models have come into agreement on a pattern evolution that will support Spring-like weather throughout the Eastern part of the United States later this week and into this weekend, as a strong storm system develops in the Northern Plains states and then ejects northeastward towards the Great Lakes. A frontal boundary will shift eastwards into the Plains and eventually the Mississippi River Valley, but the amplified storm to our west will draw in Southerly winds and bring warm, moist air northward.

It won’t come without the need for some patience, as the beginning of this week has already started off very cold. Temperatures are well below seasonal averages and will remain there for the next few days with a cold high pressure overhead. A weak disturbance shifting by on Tuesday may even prove sufficient to produce rain and snow showers across the region – with snow particularly possible in the interior and higher elevations of New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and New York.

Tuesday Briefing: Northeast Snow This Weekend Before Big Warmth Next Week?

Good afternoon! Overall the pattern will continue to be progressive until at least Friday. Canadian high pressure will provide mostly sunny skies for rest of today. Temperatures  are rising into the mid-upper 30s. Which is few degrees below normal. But the next few days will start see temperature moderate again, as southerly flow develops again. High temperatures on Wednesday will be in the mid-upper 40s. Then highs and Thursday and Friday will be the 50s or 60s, depending on amount of cloud cover.
