Significant winter storm expected Wednesday night through Friday

10:55 PM
There are times when as a forecaster, I look at a water vapor satellite and everything just comes together for me in terms of how I think this storm will evolve.  Usually it is a matter of just sitting back and watching the water vapor loop again and again, just observing the way the [...]

Got to know when to hold them, know when to fold them

9:30 PM
Yes, I love Kenny Rogers too and one of my favorite songs is The Gambler!
“You got to know when to hold ‘em, know when to fold ‘em.

Know when to walk away, know when to run
You never count your money, when you’re sittin’ at the table.
There’ll be time enough for countin’, when the dealin’s done.”
Well, [...]

Threat for rain decreases, but remains a possibility through the weekend

5:15 AM
Over the past 48 hours, many locations have received several inches of rainfall while other locations have received very little rainfall at all.  The complex factors driving this pattern have been seen to great details as mesoscale boundaries, jet streaks, and mid/upper level disturbances have each played a part in setting up areas of [...]

Pattern change promises a return of real summer conditions

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 [...]

Father’s Day Forecast not as wet as advertised

10:00 AM
The visible satellite picture this morning shows us that once again, yet another weekend has been spoiled by wet, soggy conditions.  However, I do have some good news for this afternoon.  Note that over the Hudson Valley and over eastern Pennsylvania that the clouds have started to break up and some clouds are lifting [...]

9:23 AM
Low pressure east of Long Island and south of New England has stalled and will impact the forecast area over the next several days.  Variable cloud cover can be expect today through Tuesday.  Scattered showers will be rotating through the coastal waters through this afternoon as the low pressure system slowly drifts east.  Showers [...]

Heavy rain and severe weather a significant threat

7:30 AM
The forecast for today through tonight is best described as significantly complicated and potentially very active.  The main theme is basically the progression of the warm front currently over southwesterly Pennsylvania through eastern Virginia.  I want to start with the fact that the surface low pressure system is further north and weaker than forecasted [...]
