Slow moderation of temperatures as winter finally loosens its grip!


I don’t think too many people are disappointed that we didn’t receive the anticipated snowfall yesterday as we only had flurries and then some late afternoon and evening sprinkles, however parts of southern New Jersey picked up 3 inches of snow.
Today’s weather will feature lots of clouds but temperatures will reach around 50, we may have a sprinkle or two during the day but most of the time it will stay dry.
No storms are anticipated the rest of the week and the weekend but a sprinkle can not be ruled out on Wednesday and Thursday.
The Easter weekend looks outstanding with plenty of sunshine and temperatures actually rising to to near normal for this time of year which is in the mid 50s.

The forecast: Today – Mostly cloudy with a slight chance of a sprinkle, high near 50.
Tonight – Becoming mostly clear later at night, low in the low 30s.
Wednesday – Increasing clouds with a slight chance of a sprinkle, high in the upper 40s.
Thursday – Mostly cloudy with a slight chance of a shower, high in the low 50s.

Have a nice day!

Snow moving into our area this morning!


Snow will be beginning around 11AM in the Clifton area and last into this evening, accumulations should mainly be in the 3 inch range mainly on colder surfaces.. I do believe with temperatures just above freezing most roads will just be wet. This will likely be the last snowfall of this extended winter season.
Dry weather and temperatures will slowly moderate the rest of this week and into the Easter weekend.

The forecast: Today – Snow developing around 11am and becoming windy, highs in the upper 30s.
Tonight – Snow ending around 10PM, total accumulation around 3 inches, little more to our south and a little less to our north..
Tuesday – Partly sunny, high in the upper 40s.
Wednesday – Mostly sunny, high in the upper 40s.
Thursday – Partly sunny, high near 50.
Friday – Mostly sunny, high near 50.
Saturday – Partly sunny, high in the low 50s.
Easter – Mostly sunny, high in the mid 50s.

Marine Forecast – Gale warning from later this morning into tonight for northeast winds gusting to 45 knots, seas building to 11 feet.
Outlook – Small craft advisories likely will be needed on Tuesday and Wednesday but drop below advisory levels from Thursday through the weekend.

Enjoy what should be the last snowfall of the season!

Pleasant weather this Sunday, snow still very likely on Monday!


Once again it is a chilly this morning with temperatures in the upper 20s with clear skies. During the day today we will have plenty of sunshine and with lighter winds it will be more comfortable than yesterday.
But winter is not done yet, a storm over Alabama this morning will redevelop off our coast on Monday, snow will develop around daybreak and continue into the evening, computer models are still inconsistent in the amount of moisture that will reach our area but I will stick with my previous forecast of around 4 inches with more over Central New Jersey.
After the storm passes we will have dry weather the rest of the week with a slow moderation of temperatures to even near normal by next weekend, normal highs for the end of March are in the mid 50s.

The forecast: Today – Mostly sunny, high in the upper 40s.
Tonight – Becoming cloudy with a chance of snow before daybreak, low in the low 30s.
Monday – Snow likely continuing into the evening, becoming windy, high in the upper 30s, total accumulation around 4 inches..

Wednesday – Mostly sunny, high in the upper 40s.
Thursday – Mostly sunny, high near 50.
Friday – Mostly sunny, high in the low 50s.
Saturday – Partly sunny, high in the low 50s.
Easter – Partly sunny, high in the mid 50s.

Marine Forecast: Today – Northwest wind to 15 knots diminishing this afternoon, seas up to 3 feet.
Outlook: Gale watch for Monday then small craft advisories possible Tuesday and Wednesday.

Enjoy the nice weather today!

Cool and dry weekend: Snow on Monday!


Today will feature plenty of sunshine and temperatures will be a couple of degrees higher than yesterday but a brisk wind will make it feel colder.
More sunshine on Sunday with lighter winds but clouds will increase later at night ahead of the next storm system.
Computer models are in a little better agreement now and snow is very likely on Monday into Monday night, my first guess that we will have around 4 inches of the white stuff but of course that forecast will probably change as we get closer to the event.
Dry with a slight moderation in temperatures as we move further into next week with temperatures reaching 50 by Thursday, still this is a few degrees below normal for this time of year..

The forecast: Today, sunny and windy, high in the upper 40s.
Tonight – Mostly clear, low in the upper 20s.
Sunday – Sunny, high in the upper 40s. Increasing clouds at night..
Monday – Snow beginning around daybreak and lasting through the evening, accumulation around 4 inches, high around 40.

Thursday and Friday – Mostly sunny, high near 50.

Marine forecast: Small craft advisory for winds gusting to 25 knots, seas up to 3 feet.
Outlook – Below advisory levels on Sunday but advisories will be likely on Monday that will last through the mid-week period.

Enjoy the weekend!
