Conditions to Improve (Sept 19-23)

sun through clouds

We’ll start the week with some much needed rainfall however once clear, the week looks pretty good. Let’s break it down…

Monday (Sept 19) high temperatures should reach the mid-70s statewide. Skies should be mostly cloudy. Rainfall (anything from a half-inch to 2 inches) with embedded thunderstorms are expected throughout the day. Winds should be light out of the S/SE unless you are under a localized embedded thunderstorm in which case winds could become gusty. Overnight lows should fall into the 60s statewide as precipitation gradually decreases.

Tuesday (Sept 20) high temperatures should reach the lower-80s away from the ocean. Coastal regions could be held to the upper-70s. Skies should start cloudy with remnant AM showers possible. If temps and dews meet at the surface then we could see some fog during early AM hours. Conditions should improve throughout the day with sunshine possible by afternoon. Winds should be light out of the E. Overnight lows could dip into the 50s for NNJ elevations but should at least drop into the 60s for the rest of New Jersey.

Wednesday (Sept 21) high temperatures should reach the low-to-mid 80s statewide. Skies should be mostly sunny. Humidity should be felt moreso for coastal regions. Areas NW of the NJ Turnpike should experience a drier air mass. Winds should be light out of the N. Overnight lows should fall into the 50s for most. Immediate coastal areas could stay in the 60s overnight.

Thursday (Sept 22) high temperatures should reach the lower-80s away from the ocean. Coastal regions could be held to the upper-70s. Skies should be sunny and pleasant. Winds should be light out of the E/SE. Overnight lows should fall into the 50s for most. Immediate coastal areas could again be held in the 60s overnight.

Friday (Sept 23) high temperatures should again reach the lower-80s away from the ocean. Coastal regions could be held to the upper-70s. Skies should be mostly sunny with humidity making a noticeable return. Winds should be light out of the S/SW. Overnight lows should hang in the 60s for most. NNJ elevations might dip into the upper-50s.

An early look at the weekend indicates more of the same for Saturday with a cool-down for Sunday forward (highs in the 70s lows in the 50s). Should be fitting considering we’ll be a few days into fall. Add some football games, open windows and pumpkin-spiced stuff and we’re there. I’ll be watching Karl. Have a great week and be safe! JC
