NYC Dual Storms Possible Within Week’s Span
Good morning everyone. We’re watching what-will-be a fairly powerful system that’ll impact the New York City late weekend with heavy rain and strong winds, but we’re also watching what’s behind it. Signs are starting to play out a scenario that may give us a secondary powerful system the following weekend, possibly taking the same path, or maybe a little touch more offshore.
We’ll be watching things very closely, but for now the focus remains on the short-range forecast because we know this is a sure thing. Timing and details are below.
SATELLITE
For today, we’ll have sunshine and a near seasonable day. Winds are on the light side, and we’ll have highs in the mid to upper 40’s.
Clouds will slowly increase tomorrow ahead of our big storm, but we should see some AM sunshine. Highs a milder low to mid 50’s.
WEATHER RADAR
Look for a cloudy Sunday with winds increasing. Rain will head in some time between late morning and mid afternoon. Highs will be a blustery near 60 degrees. Look for rain, heavy at times overnight Sunday, with strong winds. Winds, especially along south facing shores of NYC and LI, could gust to 40-50mph. Further east, we could see 50-60mph gusts. This may equate to downed power lines and tree limbs in spots.
Rain continues for part of Monday morning, then winds go from the “windy” category to “breezy”z. Highs will be in the near 50 range, then dropping before sunset.
Tuesday looks like a sunny and chilly one with highs in the low 40’s, then mid 40’s for the rest of the workweek and quiet. We’ll keep an eye on our upcoming storm, plus the prospects for another one next Sat/Sun.
