HOT HUMID WEDNESDAY THURSDAY RAINY COOL FRIDAY AHEAD – Good morning everyone! As predicted yesterday, some isolated showers and storms moved through the New York City metro area, and just as expected, it would do nothing to quell the heat and humidity. Sun and clouds, heat, and humidity reign supreme today, with highs in the upper 80’s. We could also see a shower or storm pop up at any time as the sun interacts with the humidity and energy passes to our north.
STATIONARY FRONT PLAYS THE GAME THURSDAY AND FRIDAY
For tomorrow, we crank up the heat even more and keep the humidity. Highs tomorrow will be in the 90-95 degree region for most of the area and again, we could see a storm pop up at any time, especially in the afternoon. The main batch of rain associated with waves of low pressure riding along a stationary front to our north holds off a bit, and the best chance of numerous showers and storms will be after midnight tomorrow night. After that, periods of heavy rain and flooding thunderstorms will be with us into late Friday. As these waves sink further and further south, we will find ourselves in the cooler sector of this frontal boundary, with highs only 75-80 for Friday. Localized flooding in poor drainage areas is a strong possibility, so give yourself some extra time commuting on Friday.
Over the weekend, things will be slow to clear out on Saturday, but the second half of the day should be nice. Sun and clouds, especially in the morning, with highs in the low to mid 80’s. Sunday will be the best day of the weekend, with lots of sunshine, relatively low humidity for mid July, and highs in the mid 80’s. We’ll continue this pattern into the early part of the week with mid 80’s, but eventually the humidity will creep up and we watch for above normal temps and high humidity making a return for mid-week next week. As of now, we’re still looking at the possibility of an extended stretch of above normal temps and high humidity, possibly lasting 5-7 days before the prospect of our first sharp cold front of the season enters the picture.
For the marine forecast, today is looking like the best day until late Saturday and Sunday morning. Just keep an eye to the sky for any fast building, isolated showers and storms. Seas will start to build tomorrow, then 3-5ft seas all day Friday with an east wind. Expect rough conditions around the inlets until Saturday late morning/early afternoon when things begin to lay down. Early Sunday morning will be the best time to do some near-shore fishing with a smaller boat, with 2ft seas early before winds switch from the west to the south. We’re starting to enter the “dog days” of fluking as water temps start to climb above 70 in the back bays, so your best shot will be in the colder waters of the inlet and deeper waters on some structure out in the ocean. Sea Bass are running strong if you know where to find them and the bluefish are everywhere. For those who like to venture out in the 60ft or deeper range, in a week or two, start keeping your eyes peeled for any Skipjack, False Albacore, and Green Bonito.
Stay tuned as we watch all of the pieces of the puzzle.

HOT HUMID WEDNESDAY THURSDAY RAINY COOL FRIDAY AHEAD – Waves of energy along a stationary front drifting and sagging our way will make for an interesting Friday, but not before a hot Wednesday and Thursday.
Northeast Radar
Radar is getting busy, but most of the energy you see will go to our north. However, with sunshine and high humidity, we could see some storms pop up at any time. The biggest threat will be brief, torrential downpours.
