Est. September 2014
Tonight, a large storm system moving in from the south and west will begin to move into the NYC area. The storms will consist first of mainly rain, but then along with the rain, thunder and lightning will begin to set in. This was a short post to lay out what will mainly occur tomorrow to help you be prepared.
Stay safe!
Across the eastern portions of the US, rain and thunderstorms are moving northeastward, moving closer to their last US destination, the Northeast, that including the NYC Metro Area.
What do we think in terms of timing?
Tomorrow the heaviest rain and thunderstorms will likely occur near NYC around noon, but the rain will start a couple of hours earlier, steadily increasing until it beings to taper off around 4 PM (in the NYC Metro Area.) Although that rain will end before dusk, some thunderstorms on the back side of the system could impact some isolated areas later during the night tomorrow.
Over the next several days, a new system for forecasting that Weather 360 will be using will start to create more accurate and advanced forecasts.
We’ll keep you posted, stay safe!
Across the NYC Metro Area (TOMORROW) some thunderstorms are expected to line up near NYC, some of these thunderstorms will have the potential to be severe, causing delays and hazards on roadways and possibly some hail damage to vehicles and windows.
Tomorrow across the NYC Metro Area, temperatures will be right around 60 degrees along with the potentially severe and heavy rains.
Please exercise extra caution outdoors tomorrow and if a severe thunderstorms or a tornado watch or warning, take appropriate action, (meaning take cover immediately.)
Before this post wraps up, Weather 360 will be using a new system to derive our forecasts over the next week or so, hopefully and as expected, this new system will give more localized and more accurate forecasts for all of the 31 counties and 20 million people in and around New York City.
Stay safe, and enjoy the clear skies today!
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!
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!
Of course, wet conditions rid an area of flies, well, at least for a bit before they come right back again. With some showers expected tomorrow across the Northeast from Maine to New Jersey, bringing with them, a brief, short period of time without many flies (a relief for some at least. But, what can be frustrating is when as soon as the rain is done and the sun finally comes back out, the flies return.
Storm timing
Tomorrow the rain will start out in western portions of Pennsylvania and New York very early in the morning, (so around midnight), the rain in those areas should end around noon though, letting the sun and the flies return earlier on in the day. For locations in the rest of the Northeast, the rain will start just before dawn, but still end before nighttime, allowing for some Mayflies to return before the sun completely sets.
Although the majority of the Northeast will experience mainly rain showers, there is the possibility for some brief periods of heavier rain and even thunder across the Eastern Seaboard.
Please exercise extra caution while outdoors tomorrow due to rain and some isolated thunderstorms.
Remember, at least the warm temperatures will stick around instead of leaving, again…
No, it is not what you are probably thinking, this time around the big threat will not be cool temperatures, but this time the only threat to outdoor plans is the rain that may come this weekend.
Although the weekend is still a few days away, the likelihood of there being a rain event across the Northeast has been steadily increasing as the GFS computer model and the European computer model (ECMWF) have both been suggesting that there may be a low pressure system that may sweep across the Northeast United States sometime later this weekend or very early next week.
Will there be a severe front to this storm system?
Yes, at the moment it does appear to look as if there may be a severe side to this system. Right now, the severe side looks mainly to be in southern and western portions of the Northeast (this could very easily change.)
Although there is the possibility of a severe side to this storm, in most of the Northeast, it appears at the moment to likely only to be rain and some thunder.
Be on the lookout for any short term forecasts or hazardous weather outlooks by the NOAA to see if your specific area may be at risk.
Stay safe!
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?
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.
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!
