Discussion: The upper jet pattern this week looks meridional but progressive with an overall W/NW flow aloft. We’ll see the tip of a trough move through the region Wednesday-Thursday then an upper-low directly over NJ Saturday-Sunday. During these periods, temps
Discussion: With the exception of the immediate coasts, most New Jersey areas are into the 80s and even some flirting with 90. Today’s the last of the above-average temperature wave. A weak disturbance should approach with clouds and rain for

Discussion: The upper jet should remain over or just S of NJ for much of the near future. 500mb geopotential height analysis indicates correlating below-average height anomalies over NJ for the period ending ~May 8. Overall, that speaks most to
Discussion: The upper jet is somewhat inconclusive IMO but 500mb height anomalies tell the story better. For the next 10-14 days, we’re going to see lower heights over the E US in a series of colder/unsettled troughs. This should keep
Discussion: The upper jet should fluctuate either over or S of New Jersey for the next few weeks. This will correlate with a prolonged period of below-average geopotential height anomalies for most of the E US. At the surface it
Discussion: As of right now (Monday afternoon, April 17), a cold front is just passing through, powered by a Great Lakes trough/upper-low and surface low further N in Canada. This is going to set up a cooler/colder period this evening
