Is today the last day of mild, spring like temperatures for the week?

So, is today the last day of mild temperatures this week?

Unfortunately for at least New England, this may be true…

Temperatures in most of New England and New York have been relatively nice for spring so far, but it is still only early April, one of the most erratic times (temperature wise) of the year. So for those in New England, have your sweatshirts ready, it is going to be a cool spring week.

But, for the Mid Atlantic, people can look forward to a week of temperatures on the milder side.

Yes, this is mostly what is going to happen in locations such as New Jersey and parts of Pennsylvania. So, for people there, enjoy the weather! Before the rain comes to spoil it…

No, not raining on your parade, it is a parade of rain… (and some snow…)

In a few hours, next week will begin, with the new week, will be a parade, not a normal parade, but more of a parade of rain events for the Northeast.

This week, mainly from Tuesday to Friday, there will be a few different storm systems very close in terms of time to each other that will dump a few inches of rain from Maine to Maryland. Be aware of the potential for some severe storms, and some snow (WHY!) in locations such as upstate New York and Maine. Some cold air will create some snow in only some areas in the locations mentioned. Be on the lookout for slippery roads from the snow hit areas, even into areas only impacted by showers and thunderstorms due to the rain. Stay safe!

Rain + warm temperatures = spring?

Is it true that spring equals warmer temperatures plus rain?

Most people do not enjoy acknowledging the fact that rain comes with the milder, temperatures, maybe because most people do not like being trapped inside by the mud, but that’s is just a suggestion…

Today though, for anyone wondering what the timing of the rain will be and what the temperatures will be, please read ahead.

Today temperatures in southern parts of New England and most of the Mid Atlantic will be around 60 degrees, while in northern portions of New England and New York will likely stay closer to 40 or 30 degrees Fahrenheit.

The timing of the rain

By the afternoon in the Mid Atlantic, some showers will start to move in, but not intensify until overnight. For places in New England, especially in eastern parts, the rain will probably not start to mid-evening or night as some showers. There is still the possibility for some stray thunderstorms later today so please, heed all warnings set out by the National Weather Service.

As about every post, stay safe!

The Latest: Precipitation ending in Maine, otherwise, nice and dry in the Northeast until later tomorrow

As mentioned time and time again on the last few of our posts, there is rain coming for the Northeast, and a lot of it, all next week. For now though, there is only the wrapping up snow and rain in Maine moving into Canada to worry aboot.

The Latest: Dry conditions for most of the Northeast for at least early on tomorrow…

The rain coming for the Northeast is now expected to arrive just a little earlier,(tomorrow), this means that anyone with outdoor activities planned tomorrow may have to alter them accordingly with the threat of some stray showers coming in. Be careful, there is the potential for some stray thunderstorms mainly in the Mid Atlantic region as well.

The Latest: Snow in Maine, didn’t spring already free the Northeast from winter?

Yes and no…

First off, everyone knows Maine is further north than locations such as New Jersey or Long Island, good. This means that it will always be a little cooler in Maine than NYC on a normal spring day. Since they are a bit cooler off than other locations in the Northeast, conditions in early April are still favorable for the eight inches or more of snow they have already received. That is why those in Maine are shoveling away snow, while those in parts of New Jersey can already be shoveling away dirt to make room for a garden.

So if your freezing away in Caribou, Maine, or if your seeding a garden in New Jersey, stay safe and enjoy the milder temperatures, well, at least for southern parts of the Northeast (sorry Maine, not for you yet…),

Stay safe!

Dry conditions for everywhere but Maine in the Northeast for now…

Before we get started, please take a few seconds to answer this poll. We need your feedback!

If you visit our ‘Major Storm’ page, you will scroll down and see the radar only showing a lot of precipitation in Maine currently. Our point is not that this is false, which it isn’t, but that these conditions wont be around for much longer.

The storm system moving through Maine was the same one from yesterday that dumped a lot of rain along the New England and Mid Atlantic. The storm is mainly bringing snow and mixed precipitation to Maine now, along with some more snow in parts of Canada.

Back to our point

Our point is that there is the very large potential for a large and long rain event next week, so if you enjoy the outdoors while they are not filled with rain, go out now and enjoy them now, because those are the conditions that will be dominating the Northeast next week.

Stay safe!

Now instead of everyone dreading more snow, people are dreading the fact that there is a lot, and we mean a lot more rain coming

April 4, 2015Posted in UncategorizedTagged current weather conditions, forecasts, high temperatures, Mid Atlantic, New England, New York City Metro Area, Northeast, rain showers, severe storms, severe weatherLeave a comment

Over the next couple of days conditions across the Northeast will be relatively dry (except for today), but over the course of next week, the Northeast will become soggy again with rain.

Let’s talk about today

First off, not everywhere in the Northeast is dreading the rain yet, most of Maine today and tonight will receive several inches of snow from the same precipitation that will pop up across the Northeast today. So, if you are in Maine (and parts of Vermont, New York, and New Hampshire), you probably already know not to put away the winter gear before April is at least half way over. The pop up storms we were talking about will move through the Northeast (especially eastern parts of New England and the Mid Atlantic) bringing with them some light to moderate bands of rain. Nothing that should cause serious flooding, but still use caution while outdoors due to the possibility of some severe storms.

What about the rain next week?

Well, it seems as if that the rain next week will last a bit longer (around three and a half days in most parts) and will be a bit heavier (more severe thunderstorms) as well. These storms could bring some small hail, gusty winds, and lightning to locations mostly south of the New York City Metro Area. Be on the lookout next week for some of these storms, and heed all warnings and watches put out by the National Weather Service (NWS.)

Stay safe!

As most of you probably know, it is raining in the Northeast.

Again, way to state the obvious, but what that doesn’t mention is there is the potential for some severe storms and weather to roll across the Mid Atlantic and New England. Be aware for some isolated storms that may bring lightning, heavy downpours, and small hail. Refer to the NWS or NOAA for emergency information.

The Latest: SPRING IS HERE! THE NORTHEAST IS WINTER FREE! Well, at least for the most part…

For areas in southern parts of New England and most of the Mid Atlantic it may seem as if winter is well on it’s way out of the area, but there is still the potential for at least two more small Jet Stream dips, bringing back a small taste of winter to remind everyone that April can be a volatile month in terms of temperatures. Be on the lookout for some freezing of water on roadways in a few days in northern portions of the Northeast.

Stay safe!

The Latest: Typhoon in the Western Pacific

The typhoon in the Western Pacific has it’s eyes on the Philippines and then southeastern parts of China. The typhoon has already reportedly killed one person and is now expected to hit the Philippines as the equivalent of a moderate to strong category two cyclone (winds around 105-110 mph.) The typhoon could dump up to ten inches of rain in the Philippines and China, this creating the possibility of some landslides in more hilly and mountainous areas.

Weather 360 news and days of storms ahead for the Mid Atlantic

First off today we will talk about the rain now, and of course, the potential for a several day long period of storms next week. Scroll to the bottom to also view some website news.

Back to the rain now

The rain falling across the Northeast today is apart of a large and widespread storm system moving across the United States right now. There is the potential for some of the severe storms to impact locations further south, especially in the Mid Atlantic. The severe storms could include some small hail, gusty winds, frequent lightning, and the slighter side of the potential for some isolated tornadoes or micro bursts (sudden areas of a large downdraft of wind, this causing a similar amount, but more isolated, damage of a weak tornado.) Be careful and heed all warnings.

The rain next week

Again, mainly closer to and in the Mid Atlantic will be the potential for rain and severe storms. The timing of the rain event will go as so:

First, there will be mainly rain showers starting later on during Monday, but from there the storms will start to become more severe and large. Likely by Tuesday though, the storms in the Mid Atlantic will become severe, spreading further north, but not with the same magnitude. The storms should begin to wrap up by Friday, bringing with that, warmer temperatures and sunny conditions. If you really want to see what spring has to offer, you likely are very eager for next weekend to arrive.

Heed all warnings, and stay safe!

Weather 360 news

Go to https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCHWTxO538BC1k2fTp8-Wn2A to view our YouTube channel, currently we only have our promotional video, but we are working on developing new videos to report on Northeast weather along with Atlantic Basin tropical (and, if considered a storm by the NHC, sub-tropical) cyclones. The videos will include some of the same, but definitely also different information than what is shown out our website along with Weather 360 announcements.

Soggy Northeast today, tomorrow, and just when it is all dry, more rain next week

April 3, 2015Posted in UncategorizedTagged current weather conditions, forecasts, high temperatures, rain showers, severe storms, severe weatherLeave a comment

By the end of today, most of the dry places in the Northeast will be soggy and damp with rain. If it has not already rained or started raining near you in the Northeast, be ready for some spring time showers coming your way.

The severe side

Today there is the potential for some severe thunderstorms to impact some locations in the Northeast, especially towards the southern end of the region. These thunderstorms, although not likely capable now, are the same if not the ones near other thunderstorms in the Mid West that created some tornadoes. To our knowledge, it is not likely for a location in the Northeast to sustain a tornado (visit our ‘Terms to Know’ page for the NWS definition), even a fairly weak one. Remember though, there is always the potential a tornado, so heed all NWS service watches and warnings (most of them though will just tell you to take shelter, which is always a good idea, especially in a severe storm of any kind.)

If you see a flooded roadway, do not drive through it, the depth of the water could be much greater than what your eyes decide. TURN AROUND, DON’T DROWN! (It seems you will hear that a lot on TV when they talk about rain.)

On that note, stay safe!

Watch out Northeast, there’s a storm brewing

April 2, 2015Posted in UncategorizedTagged current weather conditions, forecasts, high temperatures, Mid Atlantic, National Weather Service, New England, New York City Metro Area, Northeast, rain showers, severe weatherLeave a comment

Over the next one or two weeks there is the possibility for a lot, and we mean a lot of rain and thunderstorms to arrive in the Northeast.

First, we would like to talk about the current rain and thunderstorms in the parts of the Northeast, especially Pennsylvania and New York. The current storms rolling across the two Northeast states are bringing with them some lightning, hail, and localized flooding. These same storms are expected to arrive in most of New England and eastern parts of the Mid Atlantic by tomorrow night, less severe, but will still bring a lot of rain to these areas. Watch out for some flooded roadways, including and especially underpasses and some tunnels with poor drainage. DO NOT DRIVE THROUGH THESE ROADWAYS IF THEY ARE FLOODED, TURN AROUND, DON’T DROWN!

So to wrap it all up, be careful, and stay safe!
