Skies are partly cloudy early on this Friday morning and temperatures range form the mid 60s in the Clifton area down to the upper 50s further inland where there is some patchy fog.

Today we should see a mix of clouds and sunshine today it will be warm and humid, there is a low chance of an afternoon shower and thunderstorm.

The weekend will be warm and still rather humid but we should stay rainfree.

The latest computer models have Tropical Storm Jose coming closer to the coast Monday night through Wednesday depending how close to the coast will determine our weather, at the very least coastal areas will see an increase in waves and tides from the storm.

TODAY – SEP 15 – Partly sunny with a chance of an afternoon shower and thunderstorm, high in the low 80s.

TONIGHT – Mostly cloudy, low in the mid 60s.

MARINE FORECAST:  TODAY – South-southeast wind to 7 knots, seas 1 foot.

OUTLOOK – Possible small craft conditions for high seas Saturday and Sunday; advisories likely Monday and Tuesday as Jose comes closer to the coast.

TROPICS:  Tropical storm Jose is in the western Atlantic north of Puerto Rico, Jose is expected to intensfy into a hurricane today and then move northward off the East Coast.  Latest computer models have the storm close enough to the east coast to cause at least high seas.

Have a good day!
