SPC has slight risk of severe weather to the north today

Today will be warmer and more humid than the last several days. This is due to a cold front approaching the area. There is a slight risk of some severe weather, mostly to the north as seen in the map above. Best chance and timing will be 3 pm – 9 pm and in the Poconos. All of the short term models have the showers deceasing as it heads to the south and east. Which is unfortunate since we are very dry in some areas of western New Jersey.

10 Day forecast

The rest of the week it will be still warm but less humidity than today. Warmer and more humid weather expected for the weekend. Nothing too unusual – typically summer time weather!

TS Chris

Elsewhere in the South East, Tropical Storm Chris is expected to become a hurricane latter today. But fret not, it will move to the north and east and not impact our weather unless you are heading to the shore where rip current will be increasing.
