Severe Thunderstorm Watch Cancelled for NJ

28. May 2015 · Comments Off on Severe Thunderstorm Watch Cancelled for NJ · Categories: spring, weather discussion, weather forecast · Tags: , ,

The severe thunderstorm watch previous in effect for today has been cancelled in NJ. Dryer more staple air has moved into the region and should not allow and *severe* thunderstorms to develop the rest of today.

There is a chance for some scattered shower especially to the east and south but most will not see any.

7day

 

Tonight should actually be not too bad as dryer air moves into the region. We should expect a low in the upper 50’s. The real question is to turn off the A/C or not. Friday will be in the low to mid 80’s but not too humid but probably warm enough for the A/C. Same for Saturday but there could be some late day showers or thundershowers. Sunday right now looks to feature a good chance of shower – let’s hope so since it’s been so dry lately.

Freeze Watch Tonight

7Day

 

Western New Jersey was able to escape freezing temperatures this morning due to a wind that never died down and cloudy skies most of the night. However another cold night is forecast tonight. In fact it’s forecast to be a few degrees colder than last night. So please protect any sensitive plants if possible.

Snow showers were experienced in many areas of western New Jersey yesterday with the cold air in place. Today, while still below normal, should not see any showers but temperatures will remain below normal with windy conditions.

Next week should see temperatures closer to normal for this time of year. Still no heat waves in site at this point. If anything it will remain at or slightly below normal temperature wise into early May.

 

Freeze Warning Tonight

7Day

 

The cold front moved through western New Jersey yesterday with some strong winds and a sharp drop in temperature. Stewartsville only recorded 0.08″ of rain but there was a 44 mph wind gust and a steep temperature drop when the front passed.

Today and tomorrow will be noted for unseasonably cold, windy and even a passing rain or wet snow shower (today only). In fact the NWS has issued a Freeze Warning for tonight and a Freeze Watch for tomorrow night. What does this mean? If you jumped the gun a little and planted sensitive plants outdoors, either bring them in tonight or cover them up. Generally it’s not safe to plant until May 10th in western New Jersey area.

The weekend looks better but we will be watching a storm system to our south hopefully stay there.

A fast moving cold front will visit western New Jersey this afternoon on Earth Day 2015 and give all areas strong gusty winds and even potential for thunderstorms with small hail in some areas. The National Weather Service has issues a special weather statement about the potential. The active period as of right now looks to be early afternoon. Showers could last until late afternoon or early evening.

7Day

 

What we will notice after the cold front passes is a return to colder than normal temperatures into the weekend. Day time highs will be in the 50’s with breezy conditions that will make it feel cooler.

Rainy Stormy Monday

RADAR

Everyone in western New Jersey has woken up to the sound of wind wiped rain this Monday morning. Look for moderate rain to continue until mid morning. Then the rain will turn more showery. In fact there’s a good chance the sun will come out this afternoon!

But don’t put away your rain boots just yet. A cold front will be approaching the region later this afternoon and evening and can bring some additional rain and thunderstorm. These thunderstorm will have the potential to be strong. As you can see in the above map the worse of it will be to our south and west.

7Day

Tuesday looks to be the winner weather wise this week. Then cooler weather and breezy conditions return for the remainder of the week.

Remember: April showers bring May flowers!

7Day

There’s only two bad things I can say about today’s weather in western New Jersey: 1) it won’t last forever and 2) it’s accompanied by dry breezy conditions that will cause us to once again be under a Fire Warning from 3 pm – 8 pm today. So please be careful with any outdoor fires and report anything that looks like one to 911 ASAP!

Warmer Weather On the Way

It may not feel like it yet today but warmer air is on the way to western New Jersey area. A warm front is having a very hard time making its way east today. As you can see in the above temperature map, warmer temperatures are to our west in western PA. I don’t think it will get here until later in the afternoon or early evening just before the cold front arrives. Expect some light rain showers later this afternoon. Some thunderstorm could be in extreme southern NJ and points further south.

7day

Take note of the high temperatures expected for the next several days. We should see high’s in the 60’s and perhaps some days near 70! So hopefully we can close the door on the cold and damp 30’s and 40’s during the day starting tomorrow.

Happy Easter!

Happy Easter everyone! Today will be a nice day for the most part with increasing high clouds and the chance of a sprinkle in spots this afternoon. High temperatures should be in the 50’s. It will be another breezy day but not as windy as yesterday.

Easter Weather Forecast

7Day

A cold front has put our warm temperatures to an end for now. Windy conditions today will greet temperatures that should make it to around 50. We will have a chilly Easter eve tonight so anyone getting up early for sunrise services should bundle up. Easter Sunday will feature partly cloudy skies with a slight chance of afternoon shower with highs in the mid to upper 50’s. Monday may be the pick of the week with partly sunny skies with highs in the mid 60’s. After that we enter an unsettled period (remember April showers) with periods or rain and showers into Wednesday.

Snow falls late on March 31, 2015

Snow falls late on March 31, 2015

In what continues to be an overproducing winter season in western New Jersey, yesterday evening’s changeover to wet snow over produced. Stewartsville received 0.8″ of wet snow (only on colder surfaces – roads were fine). Further to the north they received a little more. I heard reports up north of nearly 2″ and some secondary roads became snow covered.

7Day

Today will be a much nicer day but on the chilly side. We should have high temperatures in the upper 40’s with a good amount of sunshine. Thursday will be much warmer but also breezy. High temperatures look to climb into the low 60’s which will be welcome in the area. Showers will move into the area on Good Friday and continue into early Saturday morning. As of right now Easter Sunday looks like a cool start in the low 30’s.
