Western New Jersey received about 1/3″ of rain so far as of Saturday morning. It should continue to rain steady until early afternoon. Then we should just have showers the rest of the day and start to dry out later this evening.
Happy Pi Day!
Western New Jersey should see a sunny morning with increasing clouds this afternoon. High temperatures should be in the mid 40’s. Clouds will lower and thicken tonight and look for rain to start around midnight. It might start a little sooner in eastern PA. As the map above reflect, the area should pick up 1/2” of rain, perhaps a little more. Most of the steadier rain will be overnight into Saturday morning. Saturday afternoon should be more showers.
Sunday looks to be the better of the two days but breezy conditions will make it feel on the cool side. Monday and Tuesday look to be nice days before a cold front comes through Tuesday night.
Western New Jersey enjoyed a beautiful afternoon on Wednesday afternoon as high temperatures went into the mid to upper 50’s. A cooler air mass has settled into the region for the remainder of the week. We should be having high temperatures in the mid to upper 40’s this time of year. Today we should be in the mid 40’s with plenty of sunshine but a stiff breeze will make it feel cooler than it actually is.
Friday will be similar to today but with increasing clouds in the afternoon. Rain should hold off to late evening then continue overnight into Saturday morning. This storm system has more moisture to work with than the last one. Western New Jersey area looks to received about 1/2” – 1” of rain. While this shouldn’t be enough to cause widespread flooding, the ground is still somewhat frozen and can’t absorb what it could if it wasn’t snow covered.
Everyone in western New Jersey enjoyed a beautiful day yesterday with high temperatures in and around 50! We also had quite a bit of snow melt. Stewartsville is down to 10” average on the ground.
Today we will see an increase in clouds with periods of rain arriving from 2-4 pm. Rain should end overnight. Look for 1/4 – 1/2” rain.
Wednesday looks to be even nicer than Monday with highs in the mid to upper 50’s!
Rest of the week looks good with some rain on Saturday.
After some light precipitation this morning western New Jersey is experiencing an exceptional Monday afternoon with temperatures currently approaching 50 degrees!
Clouds will be on the increase as a storm system to our south will bring periods of light rain Tuesday afternoon and night. At this time it looks to give us around 1/4” of rain. We certainly don’t want too much rain at this point that would could flooding with all the snow still on the ground.
Once this system passes Wednesday will shape up to be a great day with high temperatures into the 50’s!
Looking longer range we’ll keep an eye on a storm for later Friday into Saturday. At this time it looks to be mostly rain.
Temperatures in the mid 40’s will make for a nice Sunday afternoon in western New Jersey. It would be nicer if the skies was 100% sunny and it wasn’t so breezy but compared to what it’s been, let’s not complain. Monday should be a near normal day as well with highs in the mid 40’s. Tuesday will feature a storm to our south that I was hoping was going to stay to our south. It looks to move far enough north to possibly impact our area on Tuesday afternoon. Wednesday may be the pick of the week as we make an attempt at 50 degrees!
Enjoy the break in the weather while it lasts and get outside and do any chores that need to be done or take a nice snow hike!
No it doesn’t yet feel very Spring like outside but we’ll make some progress this week! Don’t forget to change your clock tonight before retiring AND change your smoke alarm batteries!!
Today western New Jersey should see partly sunny skies and high temperatures in the mid to upper 30’s! Don’t be surprised if we see some flurries overnight – nothing to worry about. Sunday looks even better with highs in the low to mid 40’s. Other than a chance of some rain later Tuesday into Tuesday night we should have what we will call a mild week even though it’s really only “normal” high temperatures for us this time of year. Will we hit 50 on Wednesday? Let’s hope so!
Spring forward!
Overnight lows were a bit higher that I forecasted for this morning in western New Jersey but I’m sure no one is going to complain 
. Today should be a nice day and we should get above freezing with mostly sunny skies.
I found the above graphic online courtesy of the NWS in Pittsburgh. I know there are a lot of people out there that are tired of winter in the north east and ready for spring. While I believe March will start off on the cold side, I look for some relief during the week of March 8th so hang in there!
Tomorrow morning we may see a few snow showers. A storm system is passing to our south. It now looks like it will get *very* close to our area. So we will certainly start off cloudy and see some flurries or snow showers tomorrow morning – especially in sections east and south of here.
We should end the week with mostly sunny skies but temperatures in the 20’s. Next chance of precipitation will be Sunday into Monday. More on that as we get closer.
well the little fella in PA did see his shadow. How that can happen on a cloudy day is beyond me (TV lights?!). But as you can see in the graphic above compiled by the NWS, he’s skills are not the best.
