NYC ABOVE NORMAL THREE DAY STRETCH
Good morning everyone. If you’re waking up now, you may notice some scattered fog in areas of New York City as tropical air has settled back into the area. The muggy air will be brief, but the warmth is going to stick around for a few days. Meanwhile, next weekend looks like a split temp-wise.
REGIONAL RADAR
Rain is moving well to our north at this moment as a front draped across the Canadian border eventually swings our way. Expect variable clouds today, warm and humid, with the slight chance of afternoon showers and storms. Because it’s so sticky out, these storms could bring torrential rains to those who do see any action. Th biggest threat will be flooding in poor drainage areas; highs 75-80.
We increase the chance of storms during late evening and before midnight, then we begin the process of drying out and actually warming up.
LOCAL RADAR NEW YORK CITY
The passage of tonight’s front will get rid of the precip and tropical air, but a very light NW flow will help warm things up real fast and into the upper 70’s to low 80’s in most areas, even at the immediate coast. However, with our fast moving flow and a maritime pushback that I’ve been talking about, we get a front-enhanced day on Thursday; with humidity returning and highs in the low to mid 80’s (cooler at the shore with winds off of the cooling ocean). Then on Friday, we find ourselves on the other side of that front and a cool easterly flow; highs a seasonal upper 60’s to low 70’s, cooler at the shore with that easterly wind.
LOCAL RADAR PHILADELPHIA
As things become more clear, our weekend continues to look Jekyll and Hyde temp-wise. That easterly flow continues for Saturday, with sun and clouds; highs in the mid to upper 60’s. Then a warm airmass tries to drift our way again, with sunny skies and 75-80 degree temps IF the airmass can fully make it through. If we find ourselves on the cusp, look for more clouds than sun and cooler temps.
Either way, I think that warm air makes the trip eventually and we could have another warm stretch of 75-80 temps for several days. Somewhere in mid-october looks like the turning point in which the tropical-Pacific finally has less of an influence over our pattern and we hopefully return to the path we were on in terms of a seasonal October.
