Good morning everyone!

Skies are mostly cloudy to cloudy early on this Friday morning and conditions are not as sultry as the last few mornings with temperatures ranging from the low 70s in Clifton to the low 60s further inland, still these readings are well above normal.   Humidity is moderate with dew points in the mid 60s.  Winds are light easterly.

Today we will have considerable amounts of clouds and there is a chance of showers mainly this afternoon, with the clouds and an onshore flow temperatures will not rise much, remaining mostly in the upper 70s.

Still a lot of clouds around for Saturday but we should stay mainly dry, temperatures will be a couple of degrees higher than today.

Warmer on Sunday and there is a chance of mainly an afternoon or evening shower or thunderstorm, the humidity will rise with dew points reaching to near 70 by late in the day.

Very warm to hot and humid on Labor Day through most of next week as the Bermuda high pressure will again extend to our area.  Daytime highs through this period will again reach to near 90 and with dew points in the low 70s will make this coming week feel like the middle of summer instead of the first week of September.

Good morning everyone!

Skies are mostly clear early on this Thursday morning and once again it is unseasonably warm with temperatures ranging from the upper 70s in Clifton down to the upper 60s further inland.  The humidity is high as dew points are in the uncomfortable middle 70s.

A cold front will cross the area later this morning but now it appears there will be no showers with the front.  It will be a little less hot today and we should see a decrease in humidity with dew points falling into the 60s by this evening.

Much cooler Friday and Saturday as high pressure over New England gives us an onshore flow.  There will be considerable cloudiness both days with a chance of light showers.

Warmer on Sunday with a low chance of showers and thunderstorms.

Quite warm to hot again from Labor Day through much of next week as the Bermuda high will build back into the area.  It will be humid also but we should stay mainly dry through this period.  So the weather next week will be more like mid-summer weather and not September like.

THE FORECAST:

TODAY – AUG 30 – Mostly sunny, hot and humid, high in the low 90s.  A heat advisory continues in effect.

TONIGHT – Mostly cloudy and less humid with a chance of showers after midnight, low in the upper 60s.

Good morning everyone!

Skies are mostly fair early on this Wednesday morning and temperatures are starting off very high with readings ranging from near 80 in Clifton to some upper 60s further inland, the humidity is very high with dew points in the sultry mid 70s, winds are mainly calm.

Another very hot and humid day again today as the Bermuda high pressure continues to dominate our weather with a west-southwest flow of air.  Temperatures once again will rise to the mid to upper 90s and with dew points in the mid 70s will send the heat index to near 105 degrees.  Skies will be mostly sunny.

A cold front is expected to cross the area tomorrow morning with a chance of showers and thunderstorms, with more clouds it will be less hot and after the frontal passage it will become a little less humid.

An onshore flow of cooler air will be with us Friday into Saturday with a chance of light rain or drizzle along with considerable cloudiness.
