Cold Weekend Expected (Jan 1-3)
First, I would like to wish the best social following on the planet a Happy New Year! Strong high pressure in the W. US is helping to squash the SE ridge in the Atlantic Ocean that’s been keeping New Jersey warm.

2016 looks to start with average to slightly-below average January temperatures which are cold enough for wintry weather. In addition, a storm signal in the January 8-12 period is supported by a favorable pattern. Let’s break the next few weeks
Precipitation from another Great Lakes storm will collide into a high pressure system passing through the NE US early this week. The high pressure interaction should help split and possibly transfer the low pressure E of Cape Cod before steaming
New Jersey weather will remain unsettled through at least Tuesday night as two areas of low pressure impact our region. The first will be weaker and track to our N through this weekend. This should only bring cloudy conditions, more
We’ve got a lot to talk about between temperatures and thunderstorms today as well as wintry weather early next week. Let’s dive right in. The above animation is a WeatherBell Analytics (used with permission) precipitation radar simulation from the 12Z
I don’t think we’re looking at anything crazy. But in addition to the rain, enough convective instability/dynamics should exist on Thursday to warrant thunderstorms in the E. US ahead of the cold front. We have another strong low pressure system
High pressure will remain parked in the ocean off the mid-Atlantic and SE US. Strong areas of low pressure will continue to move through the Great Lakes into Canada. This setup will keep it very warm and rainy through Christmas
Another low pressure system is spinning from the northern-central US into Canada and dragging a cold front through the eastern US. A surface low pressure disturbance should form out of the Gulf of Mexico and ride this cold front through our
This weekend remains modeled as a transient cold shot of air. Next week however and into Christmas looks incredibly warm for late December. After the cold moves through, high pressure should then position itself off the mid-Atlantic coast as another
A sub-990mb occluded low is moving through the Great Lakes and will eventually transfer to SE Canada. The attached warm front laid down some light rain overnight and helped contribute to AM fog. Now, we’re in the warm sector of the
