Warm and Unsettled
Discussion: Not too many changes in the evolution of this weekend’s forecast. We still have a slow-moving linear area of convergence that should push across NJ from NW to SE and meet up with a weak coastal disturbance. Not much

Discussion: The trough that dominated the weekend is moving out but the back-side of it is still around for today (Monday). 250mb wind and 500mb geopotential height analysis is concurrent in suggesting a ridge building behind the trough for much
Discussion: A rather zonal look at 250mb wind analysis regarding the upper jet. 500mb heights suggests an upper-low dominating this weekend but gradually giving way to nicer conditions with an approaching ridge for next week. That’s what will get us
Discussion: Real quick, the winds have subsided, and we’ll drop to a range of 40-50 across NJ tonight/overnight (Monday night) with low humidity. Tuesday should be the last pleasant day with nice conditions for a while. A series of lower
Discussion: The upper jet, observed at 250mb, is streaking across the Midwest US and splitting N and S over the Mid-Atlantic US. This is creating some divergence aloft to help power thunderstorms at the muggy surface. At 500mb I’m seeing
Discussion: Let’s call it what it was. After Friday’s rain and storms, beautiful conditions (pollen aside) settled across the region for Saturday through today. Tonight, we’ll lose that as a rain system moves in from the S from a decaying
Discussion: With no major features over the next week, the upper-jet looks rather inconclusive IMO. Stepping down to 500mb, again no major features. A current upper-low will move out after today (Friday) as ridging establishes across the Mid-Atlantic and NorthEast
Discussion: Temps tonight should drop to about 60 statewide, give or take a few degrees, as periods of rain continue moving through on-and-off. The upper low remains trapped to the S of the Great Lakes. It will reach peak intensity
Discussion: This weekend looks warm and stormy. An upper closed-off low will get stuck to the S of the Great Lakes and slowly meander across NJ from W to E over the next 5-6 days or so. We can thank
Discussion: The upper jet should dip over NJ this weekend but not too far S of NJ…more right over as a weak trough. This will allow a disturbance to pass through and bring rain, possibly thunderstorms, to NJ between late
