Everything is on track for us to receive a good soaking today. It will not be raining all the time. The rain will come in waves, be heavy at times then nothing or only a drizzle.

There will also be gusty winds today in western New Jersey. The biggest threat will be the combination of rain + falling leaves = very slipper travel in sports. If you have ever walked on a bunch of wet leaves you know how slippery they can be. This is the first significant rain, with wind, and leaves we’ve had this fall so be on look out.

The storm could produce a band of heavy rain and wind in the middle of the night. There could also be some rumbles of thunder.

Warmer weather will continue today into tomorrow until a colder push of weather arrives later Thursday then cool into Saturday. Trick or treating continues to be fair but chilly on Saturday.

Get out an enjoy another nice weather day on Tuesday. Today should be similar to yesterday with the exception of some increasing clouds. The rain should hold off until after midnight tonight. Then we should see rain on an off for close to 24 hours starting early Wednesday morning lasting until the pre dawn hours on Thursday. Winds will be gusty as well on Wednesday. Good news is we need the rain and temperatures on Wednesday will be on the warm side.

If you do have any outdoor Halloween decorations you might want to secure them.

Western New Jersey will receive from 1-2″ of rain from this event. There’s even an outside chance there could be a rumble or two of thunder later in the day on Wednesday! Colder more seasonable air will arrive on Thursday and last into the weekend. At this time trick-or-treating looks dry and chilly.

A cold front is pushing through western New Jersey Sunday and will result in improving conditions this afternoon. There will be increasing amounts of sunshine and conditions will start to dry out. We only received about 1/10th of an inch of rain. More on the way Wednesday.

Fall colors are peaking in western New Jersey so get outside and enjoy them before you have to rake ’em!

7day

Monday and tuesday will be much more seasonable with high temperatures a few degrees below normal. Our next rain will be on Wednesday in to Thursday morning. This could be a good soaking of much needed rain as the remnants of Hurricane Patricia pass to our west. More details as we get closer.

Radar20151009-1525

As of 3:30, rain and some thundershowers is moving in from the NW. Keep an eye to the sky for the next few hours.

Radar20151009-1048

A cold front will be approaching the area later today. Some pre-frontal showers have already popped up and should be entering western New Jersey within the next hour.

After that we should have a little break then more activity later this afternoon. Don’t be surprised if you even hear a rumble of thunder! Yes it’s October but it does happen occasionally. Look for the afternoon showers to start as early as 2 pm but hopefully should be clear of the area in time for Friday night HS football!

Saturday Morning Update

sfcmap

Overnight western New Jersey picked up about another 1″ of new rainfall. That brings our 4 day total to 2.5-3″ of rain in the area. The rain was much needed and thankfully didn’t all come down at once.

Looks for the unseasonably cool and damp weather to continue today. Highs will only be in the low 50’s with scattered showers. Nothing should be a wash out but there will be some drizzle and showers at times. And the cloudy skies and north east wind will make it feel cooler than it really is.

Conditions should improve Sunday as hurricane Joaquin passes out to sea. Coastal flooding will continue to be an issue near the shore into early next week.

Speaking of next week, we should see the return of party sunny skies with high temperatures in the upper 60’s and low 70’s.

Moderate Rain On the Way

Radar show an area of moderate rain (green) moving north towards western New Jersey. Look for rain to start picking up in the next hour or two.

Friday Morning Joaquin Update

02. October 2015 · Comments Off on Friday Morning Joaquin Update · Categories: Hurricane · Tags: ,

115432W_sm

Overnight models continue to support the idea of hurricane Joaquin heading to the north and east and not directly impacting the US coast. There of course will be indirect effects.

12107076_1149187978444123_7260283343702031871_n

Rain will move back into western New Jersey this morning and remain on and off through the night. Showers should be the rule for both Saturday and Sunday. Heavier rain now looks to remain to our south with our area receiving between 1/2″ and 1″ of rain – perhaps a bit less to the north.

And let’s not forget about the wind. I already had a gust to 19 this morning and the day just begun!

7day

Post Joaquin we get into some nice fall weather.

Updates as warranted.
