Pattern change promises a return of real summer conditions

June 22nd, 2009 by Steven DiMartino

7:15 Am
Summer-like conditions will return to the forecast area and will do so in a short period of time. That means that humid air and temperatures in the 80’s and possibly 90’s will return to the forecast area. When the hot summer conditions return, I’m willing to bet that the conditions will feel hotter and [...]

June 8th, 2009 by Steven DiMartino

9:38 PM
A preview of the a potentially very active afternoon was seen this afternoon over much of southern Monmouth and Ocean counties of New Jersey this afternoon. A weak disturbance, a remnant from the MCS that impacted much of the Mid West early this morning, sparked off a cluster of showers and thunderstorms. These thunderstorms [...]

June 1st, 2009 by Steven DiMartino

8:45 PM
The showers and thunderstorms over the Ohio Valley, Mid West, and southern Great Lakes can be considered a calling card for what is to come through the next three days for the forecast area.

January 6th, 2009 by Steven DiMartino

7:27 AM
The first observation I noticed throughout the forecast area was how dry the air was. This is a big deal everyone for one simple reason. Evaporational cooling.
The precipitation seen over Delaware and Maryland will slowly push north today, as high pressure gives way over the next 8 to 12 hours. Clouds will continue to [...]

I want to direct your attention to the water vapor image to the left. Notice the brighter colors over West Virginia into Virginia?
