Heavy rains and what!??

April 17, 2015Posted in UncategorizedTagged forecasts, high temperatures, Mid Atlantic, New England, Northeast, rain, snow, snow eventLeave a comment

Early next week a large rain event will spread from the Midwest and Southeast into the Northeast. But what you may not have known is that the same rain event will bring some of the frozen, fluffy stuff to Maine. Although not much is currently expected, the snow has the potential to cause some trouble on roadways (including I-95), from Monday evening on into early Wednesday.

Now back to the rainy side of this storm system. Early on in the week the rain that will move in has the possibility to include some thunderstorms and areas of heavy rain, this threat exists from Maine nearly all the way down the Eastern Seaboard outside of the Northeast.

In this case both the ECMWF computer model and the GFS computer model are agreeing that there will be a large rain (and some snow) event in the Northeast early on this week.

We’ll keep you updated as more information comes out, but enjoy the above average temperatures tomorrow!

Warm temperature invasion tomorrow!

For anyone who has been waiting for temperatures warmer than 70 degrees, tomorrow you’ll be glad.

Tomorrow across southern portions of the Northeast, temperatures could reach as high as 75 degrees. Some of these areas include the following; New Jersey, All of Pennsylvania except very northwestern portions, The NYC Metro Area, and other parts of southern New England.

For locations in the northern parts of the Northeast, temperatures will likely be at or above 50 degrees, warmer in areas in central portions of the Northeast though.

Although we would like to keep going on about the warmer, early summer-like temperatures, we would like to bring up that there is the possibility for a large rain event across the Northeast early on next week. Also, if anyone wants to know, the warm temperatures will go away after that storm…

We’ll keep you updated, and stay safe!

Okay, you can come out now, spring temperatures are really here!

Spring is here!

For nearly all of New England and the Mid Atlantic, spring temperatures are here!

With temperatures in New York and Boston expected to soar into the upper 60’s and 70’s, spring must really be here to stay, right?

Well, at least for now, there is the possibility for a little cold dip in the next two weeks, but otherwise, spring temperatures will dominate. Although this week will be somewhat soggy, spring temperatures will be around to make going outside at least in a way bearable…

For today and tomorrow though, spring is here, enjoy it while it lasts!

That’s really all for now with no large severe thunderstorm events expected over the next two days, so stay safe!

This weekend in the Northeast – ACTUAL SPRING CONDITIONS!

Across the Northeast, rain and thunderstorms will begin to move out into Canada and the Atlantic. With the storms exiting, warmer temperatures and clear skies will be entering. Across most of New England and nearly the whole Mid Atlantic, temperatures will be right near or even slightly above average. According to the GFS model along with most of the short range models and the European model, skies will stay mostly clear due to a large high pressure being situated over the area.

That’s all for now, but enjoy the clear skies and drier conditions while they last!

Woke up early this morning? Blame the thunder…

April 10, 2015April 10, 2015Posted in UncategorizedTagged Mid Atlantic, New England, Northeast, severe storms, severe weatherLeave a comment

This morning across the Northeast, thunderstorms have been disrupting the night. Most of these thunderstorms may not even show up as thunderstorms on radar (but some do) because most of these storms only quickly flare up for a little while, creating enough thunder to disturb the night for many, but not being around or strong enough to be registered. Even though temperatures in most of the Northeast are only slightly above freezing, thunderstorms are still occurring from Massachusetts to the Tri-State area. That is also sometimes why there can be thunder snow in the winter, or as they call it in northern New England now, October through June…

If you have already heard about the tornadoes in the Mid West, we can assure you that although the likelihood for them in the Northeast is low, there is a slightly elevated chance in southern portions of the Northeast.

Stay safe!

Today’s weather- stormy with a chance of baseball sized ice chunks and isolated tornadoes…

Weather 360 will no longer call our 7 PM (EST) post ‘The Latest’, instead, now we will bring in more information, especially about computer models, to all our posts, but will still save some more extra information for the 7 PM (This time is just an average for most of our evening posts) post.

Severe weather ahead?

Yes, although the title of this post is just a “bit” exaggerated, there is still the possibility of some (by some we mean a decent portion…) isolated tornadoes, and a higher chance of some (to use the NOAA’s words for severe thunderstorms just about everywhere severe storms could exist), large hail and damaging winds. Where (and when) will these potentially destructive storms occur? The answer to that question is most places in the Northeast and today into tomorrow evening. The most severe storms though will be situated in and around areas such as New York and Pennsylvania (that includes most other states surrounding the states mentioned.) Live in Upstate New York or somewhere in the rest of northern New England? You’ll be glad to hear that the severe threat will be further south, especially in the Mid Atlantic…

The Mid Atlantic and southern parts of New England have the greatest odds of receiving some of the severe storms making their way through the Mid West and parts of Pennsylvania and Maryland now. Be on the lookout for any watches and warnings put out by the National Weather Service.

The severe storms moving through the Mid West now may produce some (a few inches maybe) of snow, but more on the icy side, in northern New England.

For those in northern New England, keep your shovels and ice scrapers nearby, and for those in the rest of New England and the Mid Atlantic, go inside if you hear thunder.

Stay safe!

There was snow last night? Wasn’t it just April yesterday?

There was snow last night?

It is true, the snow fell mainly in Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, and Upstate New York last night due to the falling precipitation mixing in with the cold, below freezing air. Who was our big winner last night in terms of snow you may ask? KNOX COUNTY MAINE! You are our big winner! You received a whole fresh 6.7 inches of snow according to the National Weather Service!

Now that the celebrating is done…

We would like to move on to our next big weather event, the rain tonight in most of the Northeast, but even more wintry mess for you Maine, Vermont, New Hampshire, and Upstate New York! Yes it is true, now let us show them what they have won again! About a tenth or two tenths of an inch of ice is expected across the areas mentioned along with some more sleet and snow!

Okay, what about the rain?

In most of New England that isn’t cold enough and nearly the whole Mid Atlantic, precipitation will start to fall later today into tonight in the form of rain if it has not already begun, be careful, turn around don’t drown, meaning, DON’T DRIVE THROUGH FLOODED ROADS! (It isn’t a good idea…)

Also, be on the lookout for the potential of some severe weather affecting parts of New England the Mid Atlantic tonight into tomorrow.

Stay safe! And really, don’t drive through flooded roadways.

BEWARE! APRIL IS NOW CONSIDERED A MONTH CAPABLE OF PRODUCING WINTRY CONDITIONS!

BEWARE~ APRIL IS CAPABLE OF PRODUCING WINTRY CONDITIONS IN THE NORTHEAST UNITED STATES!

Well, can the Northeast ever catch a break? One moment, winter is wrapping up, the next, seemingly starting back up again!

Tonight and tomorrow morning there is the possibility that cold temperatures in New England could create the conditions that create wintry weather. Tonight in areas of southern parts of New England, sleet will mix in with rain, creating hazardous driving conditions for the morning commute, especially on I 95 in between Boston and New York. For northern parts of New England, sleet will mix in with freezing rain along with some snow tonight into tomorrow morning, also, creating some more hazardous driving conditions.

Be aware that some roads may also have a layer of black ice on them. Stay safe!

Wintry weather expected to impact parts of New England, TONIGHT!

April 8, 2015Posted in UncategorizedTagged New England, Northeast, rain, severe weather, wintry weatherLeave a comment

Tonight across New England there is the potential for some wintry mix due to the precipitation happening to fall the one night in April where temperatures are right around freezing in that area.

The freezing line will be just north of New York City, creating a possible icy hazard tomorrow morning for commuters. In Connecticut, southern parts of New York, and Rhode Island, the main threat will be sleet and rain together in the morning. In Upstate New York, Massachusetts, Vermont, New Hampshire, and Maine, the main threat will be freezing rain (ice) and some snow possibly mixed in will also create more hazardous conditions for commuters across New England.

Remember when we told you not to necessarily put away all the winter gear earlier? Now, if you took our advise, you will not need to work so hard to stay safe!

Thunderstorms rolling through Kentucky to impact the Mid Atlantic with more rain?

April 7, 2015Posted in UncategorizedTagged Northeast, severe storms, severe weatherLeave a comment

Right now, as this post is being written, a tornado warning is in effect for two different counties in the central part of the state. The question some may be having at their homes in the Northeast besides about the tornado in that area is if storms of the same intensity are expected to impact them.

Well, these same storms will impact locations especially in the Mid Atlantic, but likely not as capable of producing tornadoes as they are now in Kentucky. The thunderstorms that will impact the Northeast over the course of the next couple of days will be likely less severe and hopefully at most producing only hail (at least it is better than a tornado.)

Not much else to say at the moment, we will keep you posted here on Weather 360.
