Atmosphere destabilizing once again

1:33 PM
As the cold front stalls over the New Jersey coast this afternoon, some of the low clouds have broken and has allowed the sun to break through.  As a result, the atmosphere is warming and becoming unstable.  With the frontal boundary remaining an area of focused low level lifting, this means the development of [...]

Atmosphere destabilizing

2:44 PM
Temperatures are rapidly rising over southeastern Pennsylvania, central New Jersey, and southern New Jersey.  Temperatures over the past two hours have jumped rapidly from the mid 50’s into the mid to upper 60’s.  This significant warming of the lower boundary layer is rapidly destabilizing the atmosphere as a cool mid level air mass remains [...]

Heavy Snow Is On The Way

7:22 AM
A large area of moderate to heavy snow is moving towards the forecast area and is already impacting eastern Pennsylvania.  Snowfall rates over Maryland, eastern Virginia, and Delaware are being reported as moderate to heavy.  The snow is associated with the strong upper disturbance that has been behind this whole storm from the start [...]

Moderate To Heavy Snow Entering Southern New Jersey

8:44 PM
Moderate to heavy snow has crossed the Delaware Bay and is now impacting Cape May, Cumberland, and 
Salem Counties.  Snow will accumulate quick as surface temperatures are well below freezing.  Snow accumulations are expected to range from 1 to 3 inches before a change over to ice and rain in the early morning Wednesday.

Clouds Cooling Fast Over The Forecast Area

8:06 AM
The IR satelite pictures the past few hours are showing a very interesting trend over southeastern Pennsylvania and southern New Jersey.  Clouds are cooling rapidly, suggesting that strong lifting is beginning to take place over these locations.  Expect precipitation to really begin to fill in over southern Pennsylvania and southern New Jersey over the [...]

Good And Bad News This Morning

6:20 AM
I think I’ll start with the good news.  The east wind has done its job as expected and has warmed the entire coastal plain above freezing including the major cities and surrounding suburbs.  Heavy rain can be expected through the day as the best dynamics continue to be present over the forecast area.  This [...]

Temperatures Falling To Supportive Levels For Accumulations

As we watch the precipitation build over southeastern Pennsylvania and southern New Jersey, I quickly want to cover the issue of the surface temperatures.  
For the most part, temperatures range from the lower to mid 30’s throughout the forecast area.  I think in this situation, that snow will accumulate at 32 to 34 degrees and [...]

Drought Page Updated

The drought data for October over southern New Jersey has been updated along with a discussion on the current events.  
Frankly, I don’t see much improvement in the situation going forward.

Drought Information Updated

The latest data is in for the month of September, and while the month ended up slightly above normal in the rainfall department, the overall theme once again is that the drought that began back in 2007 is still having an overall impact on the forecast area.  
Read my latest thoughts on the drought on [...]

Severe Thunderstorm Potential Increasing For Southern New Jersey

The remaining cold pool from an MCS this morning is rapidly moving east towards the Mid Atlantic coast.  While I believe the majority of the severe weather will be focused over Maryland and Delaware, parts of southern New Jersey will still be at threat through the afternoon hours as the atmosphere destabilizes.  
Through the rest [...]
