CLIFTON’S ALMANAC FOR SEPTEMBER 30TH:

RECORD HIGH: 86 – 2016 RECORD LOW: 36 – 1991

YESTERDAY’S HIGH: 61 LOW: 57 PRECIPITATION: 2.35″

Yesterday we had the 2.35″ of rain but New York City had 5-9 inches which caused massive flooding.

The storm system with some of the remains of ex-tropical storm Ophelia has moved further offshore but we will still have mostly cloudy to cloudy skies much of the day with a chance of a lingering shower mainly this morning. We should have clearing by this evening.

High pressure will then be in control of our weather on Sunday giving us plenty of sunshine and warmer temperatures.

High pressure will continue to dominate our weather next week with dry conditions along with above normal temperatures.
