Hazardous stretch of cold weather for NJ

Dangerous cold continues today into the weekend. High temperatures will be in the teens and overnight lows in the single digits near zero, if not below zero later in the week.

As we look and temperature trends into February, both the 6-10 day and 8-14 day temperature outlook are below normal. It could be worse – you could be vacationing in Florida this weekend as they will have extensive freeze warnings down there.

As we turn our attention to the weekend and beyond, there will be a strong storm that will form south of us. That is a given. The big question is how far north it will travel or will it mostly go out into the Atlantic. As seen in the above graphic, the NWS is leaning towards the next storm staying mostly to our east. But also note that it has hazardous cold from 1/30-2/1. Brrr.

I know everyone is busy clearing up the snow, sleet and ice from Sunday. And today is a GREAT day to do so since it will be the WARMEST day of the week!!!

The next big story will be the cold this week. High temperatures in the teens and lows in the single digits to near zero!

And no one wants to hear this (except perhaps kids or snow plowing companies) but there is another potential snow storm either this coming weekend or Sunday into Monday. It is January after all!

Here We Snow Again, 2021 Style

Stewartsville Thursday morning as snow starts falling again

Another snowfall for 2021. We should all be used to this at this point. So far only a tenth of an inch at 7 am with more on the way.

NWS Snow forecast

The heavier snow bands appear to be setting up south of our area in the central-west area of NJ. As a result the NWS has shifted their forecast area of snow for 6-8″ to those areas. That is represented in the graphic above.

There is still a chance of some sleet getting mixed in or perhaps changing over to later today and this evening.

Most of the heavier snow will fall today during the day. the snow should lighten up later today and overnight. We should still see some periods of light snow and snow showers Friday morning. At this time I don’t see too much additional resulting from that.

Next Two Snow Threats Go South

NWS snow forecast ending Feb. 11, 2021 7 pm

In our rapid succession of snow threats, we have two more that will visit our area. For the most part, these will remain to the south of our area. But we may still get some accumulating snow.

The first one will arrive late Wednesday night or very early Thursday morning. The second one will be almost 24 hours later.

Both of these will impact southern locations more than northern locations.

I’m expecting a coating to 2″ of snow with less to the north and more to the south.

Looking ahead, there’s another chance of wintry weather late Saturday night into SUnday morning. If this verifies, this will be the second Sunday morning in a row of wintry weather. Right now this looks relatively light but could feature some mixed precipitation.

Multiple Chance Of Snow Next 7 Days

Stewartsville February 8, 2021

A cold morning in Stewartsville, NJ this Monday morning with temperatures in the lower teens.

Monday morning low temperatures

There were some areas in the upper single digits to the north. Clear skies overnight along with fresh snow and light winds caused the cold Monday morning.

NWS snow forecast for Tuesday

Enjoy the cold sunshine on Monday becasue another fast moving system will impact our area before sun-up on Tuesday. This will be a similar event to last Friday where we picked up a coating to 2″. My forecast is for a coating to 3″. The coating will be in southern areas and the 3″ to the north. The graphic above from the NWS shows this potential nicely.

Thursday forecast

Then another day of sunshine on Wednesday before another larger system impacts our area starting very late Wednesday or early THursday morning. This system will be multiple waves of low pressure that will move along just to our south and last until Friday morning. These waves will result in more snow than Tuesday but it should not be terrible. Early thoughts are 2-4 or 3-6.

Sat-Sun forecast

Our parade of storms continues with another fast moving system late Saturday lasting into early Sunday morning.

Don’t put the snow shovel away yet as another system could impact our area in the timeframe of next Wednesday. Temperatures looks to remain well below normal throughout this timeframe.

Windy, Cold Weather On The Way

sleet in Stewartsville on January 26, 2021

Stewartsville recorded 0.2″ of sleet and a tiny bit of snow in the past 24 hours. The storm is moving away today and we should start to see periods of sunshine this afternoon.

Another storm system will pass to our south later today and on Thursday. This will result in the winds picking up and gusting to 30-40 mph at time. This will usher down very cold air from eastern Canada.

The cold winds will result in below-normal temperatures for the next several days. After today, we may not see temperatures above the freezing mark until early next week. Friday and Saturday high temperatures will be in the 20’s. Overnight lows will be in the upper single digits to low teens.

Looking long range, our next storm signal is later Sunday into early next week. Right now it has the potential to be a bigger storm than the last one. It might also be a snow to mix situation for our area as well (especially southern locations). It could be a long duration event as well lasting from late Sunday into Tuesday morning perhaps. We’ll keep an eye on it and update accordingly.

Blustery Weekend On The Way

22. January 2021 · Comments Off on Blustery Weekend On The Way · Categories: snow, winter · Tags: , ,

You’ll want to be like Bernie and bundle up this weekend, especially Saturday as temperatures will likely struggle to get to 30. Winds will keep the wind chill in the teens.

Confidence is increasing that our area will see some wintry weather late Monday into Tuesday.

At this time the precipitation type looks to be mainly snow for our area but I can’t yet rule out a changeover or mix with some sleet or freezing rain, especially in southern locations. As it looks now if that happens it will be minor.

Timing wise looks to be later Monday into Tuesday. There’s a good chance the wintry weather will be in two parts. There appears to be a lull in the snow perhaps mid-day Tuesday with perhaps another, lighter round of snow before the day ends.

How much? Still too early to say. I’m thinking this will NOT be as much as the December event. At this time I’m expecting 3-6″ range.

Snow Showers Early Wednesday

19. January 2021 · Comments Off on Snow Showers Early Wednesday · Categories: weather discussion, winter

Today will be very similar to yesterday with clouds and sun and breezy conditions

A strong cold front will move through our area very early Wednesday morning that will result in some flurries or snow showers in sport. Look for a coating to perhaps a dusting in some areas. the map about shows the best chances for receiving 0.1″ of snow or more.

Quiet Weather First Week of 2021

04. January 2021 · Comments Off on Quiet Weather First Week of 2021 · Categories: weather discussion, winter

Happy New Year to all! Our weather the first full week of the new year should not be too exciting. Yesterday’s morning snow was exciting on the other hand! 1.6″ of snow in Stewartsville.

We should remain mostly cloudy with some breaks today. Tonight into Tuesday there is a weak disturbance that could bring us some flurries or snow showers to the area. Little accumulation is expected.

More sun that clouds return on Wednesday and remains for the balance of the week. We need to keep an eye on an ocean storm for Friday into Saturday that right now looks to stay to our south. Sometimes they have a habit of sneaking further north so we will monitor. temperatures overall this week will be slightly above normal. This temperature pattern looks to continue into mid month at lease.
