Warming next week!

 Current conditions




There is strong high pressure extending out of the Midwest and Great Lakes. The cold front that went through is now off the coast of New England and is sitting just south of our region. Satellite is showing we have a lot of cloudiness Over a large part of New York state and northern into central new England. There is more in the way of a mix of sun and clouds Over Pennsylvania Southern New England and  the northern Middle Atlantic region.


Conditions across the region have temperatures  a little cool, but the light rain that fell as the front moved across the region is over and is dry today. The high pressure centered up over the eastern Great Lakes is going  to be dropping south and east heading towards the coast. Tomorrow that cold front is going to start head back north as a warm front.  As the high pressure moves across and eventually off-shore we're going to see more of a southern flow that's going to allow temperatures to warm a bit for our Sunday.

We're going to see a series of weak little disturbances roll through for much of next week. These are going to keep things unsettled.

Next week

As that warm front lifts northward for Sunday and Monday it will bring some rain showers. Even though it's going to be cloudy on Monday temperatures are going to spike and become much warmer.  Then for later Sunday through Monday as the other part of the system with a cold front approaches. When's will become more gusty. We're going to see more in the way of widespread rain and scattered thunderstorms. The warming trend is going to continue, but the rain and thunderstorms will still be around for Tuesday, Isolated storms could be on strong side; as these disturbances keep rolling through.  Wednesday looks to be a bit unsettled Across New York State into northern and maybe central New England as another disturbance moves across Canada. Much of Pennsylvania, Maryland, Delaware and New Jersey should escape most of the unsettled conditions. Accompanying this system we're going to see a slightly stronger cold front approaching and dropping across the region on Thursday. Ahead of the front temperatures are going to become very warm, due to gusty southern winds. As the cold front advances we're going to see rain showers and thunderstorms develop ahead of the frontal boundary. A few of these storms could be strong to severe.

With Thursday likely being the warmest day of the week. Behind the front we are going to cool off a little bit For friday into the weekend.
