Stepping Down

Posted by Jeremy Reiner

We are taking steps back to winter---better than a slide! Yesterday we had temps in the low 60s whereas today we will only reach the low 40s for afternoon highs (normal high is 35). You will have some sun but look for a lot of clouds throughout the day. These clouds are tied to a front--the front that shoved our April-like temps out of here overnight. That front isn't done with us just yet.

The front will act like a highway for any storm that would just so happen to form----oh and look--a storm is forming this morning North Carolina and that storm will travel along this front today and up into New England during the day tomorrow. It won't be a big, bad storm that gets a name or anything like that but it will create some issues for us.

*Light snow & rain arrives ~4am Wednesday and lingers until 4pm.

*Most of the snow is west of Interstate 95---little if any snow is expected within a mile or 2 of the ocean (mostly rain in those locations).

*Travel will be snarled at times throughout the day---but the snow won't fall faster than the plows can plow it--good!

*We do have a map that details the snowfall potential (It's the *Special* Map in that section).

In any event, drier and colder weather returns for the remainder of the week.

Warming Up and Unsettled

Well, it certainly was a great weekend weather-wise until this afternoon when the temps dropped and light showers moved in from west to east.  Despite the cool down, the theme for this upcoming week is warmer with higher humidity.  It'll also be unsettled at times. 

Pulling The Fade

Our fun in the sun ends this afternoon as morning sunshine fades behind thickening clouds.  As those clouds increase, a few showers break out this afternoon from west to east, with the highest chance for rain late afternoon and this evening.  Most of the showers are light, especially the early afternoon ones, but a heavier shower or two is possible near day's end and early this evening.  Highs reach the mid to upper 60s around noon, then fall back to near 60 mid to late afternoon thanks to scattered showers.  These showers are brought to us by a warm front.

Back and Forth

Quite a few clouds in the sky at times this afternoon, but the atmosphere lacked ample moisture to produce showers, so we made out just fine with temps near 70.  Even the coast made it well into the 60s before the onshore wind knocked temps back.

Pretty Good Weekend Overall

Sure, it's a cool start with many of the suburbs down into the upper 30s and lower 40s, but we'll warm up quickly through the day as that sun helps us out.
