August 11th, 2009 by Steven DiMartino

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 21st, 2009 by Steven DiMartino

Heavy rain and severe weather a significant threat

June 20th, 2009 by Steven DiMartino

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 [...]

June 19th, 2009 by Steven DiMartino

The new 12Z model guidance is in and appears to have a better handle on the rainfall for Saturday.
The low pressure system is expected to approach the region by Saturday afternoon with scatter showers and thunderstorms. There appears to be less support for a strong MCS to develop, which would have brought a threat [...]

June 19th, 2009 by Steven DiMartino

7:15 AM
As low pressure exits the forecast area this morning, a brief break in the clouds and rainfall can be expected through the day. In case anyone forgot, that big bright ball in the sky is called the sun, and no we are not in Seatlle. Weak high pressure over the eastern Great Lakes will [...]
