A variety of winter weather returns for early next week

7:45 AM
High pressure will continue to dominate much of the northern Mid Atlantic today through Sunday with scattered clouds and temperatures returning to near normal levels.  In fact, many locations along the coast will push into the lower 40’s for highs, which will aid in slowly melting the snow pack over the region.
The next storm [...]

Rain and minor ice threat on tap today

8:39 AM

An intensifying low pressure system is moving through the Tennessee Valley this morning with heavy rain approaching southern New Jersey.  The heavy rain is expected to spread throughout the Philadelphia and New York City metropolitan area through this morning and become heavy this afternoon.
The hold of cold air is starting to give over most [...]

Cold conditions wither away this weekend

9:00 PM
The coldest day so far this winter season was experienced today with highs throughout the New York City and Philadelphia metropolitan areas in the 20’s and lower 30’s.  The stiff northwesterly winds through the day didn’t help matters, making temperatures fell like the mid to upper 10’s through the afternoon.  However, now high pressure [...]

Morning Thoughts- snow and ice start to give way

6:52 AM
Before the usual morning forecast, I wanted to give an update on the storm raging outside this morning.  The rain/ice/snow line continues to steadily push north, however many locations have already been impacted.  Many locations have already experienced moderate to heavy snow with accumulations ranging from 2 inches to 6 inches over the interior [...]

Evening Thoughts- lets get ready to rumble

9:35 PM
I have a feeling that I am going to be a very busy meteorologist through the New Year.  The active, cold pattern is well on the way of forming and organizing and the agreement on the GFS and ECMWF in the medium and long range guidance of the overall pattern structure is nearly uncanny. [...]

A Very Warm Periods Continues!

5:44 AM
All this warm weather is making me think of baseball! 
After a very warm day yesterday where temperatures soared into the 50’s and even 60’s, a cold front moved through last evening to knock temperatures back to more seasonable levels.  High pressure will move right over the forecast area today with clear skies and light [...]

Wet And Active Period Ahead

6:36 AM
Next week will feature a storm track that will begin over the southern Plains and head towards the eastern Great Lakes.  This type of storm track is NOT a snow producer, but has the potential to develop an ice situation for some locations in the forecast area.
On Monday, the cold front will clear the [...]

Thoughts On The Back End Of Precipitation

12:46 PM
A large area of precipitation associated with the developing surface low and the strong short wave driving through the Ohio Valley will move through the forecast area this evening.  
The temperatures at 850 MB quickly crash below freezing as this band of precipitation moves through.  So the key is to look at the current [...]

Ice, Ice, Baby

6:51 AM
Hey, where is Vanilla Ice anyway?  Last I heard he was destroying a VH1 studio.  
Anyway, freezing rain is falling heavily over central New Jersey and currently right over my location in Freehold.  My major concern is that in Freehold I am sitting at 28 degrees with freezing rain.  Trenton is in an even [...]

Cold Air Slow To Leave, But Eventually Will

6:35 AM
The cold air is being rather stubburn to leave the forecast area, however the signals are showing up as winds slowly shift to the east.  Before the warm air gets into much of the forecast area though, ice is going to be a significant concern through the morning hours from Philadelphia through central New [...]
