Surface
chart and radar
We have a back-door
cold front pushing south out of Canada, this could bring a few rain showers
into parts of northern New England into northern New York State later this
afternoon and evening. But any showers will be short-lived. We could also see A
few showers and perhaps a few isolated thunderstorms could develop in the
afternoon across western New York State into northwestern Pennsylvania. Most of
the region should end up warm and mostly dry with only a slight chance for
rouge showers or perhaps a couple rumbles of thunder, due to the trough hanging
around overhead. Today will also be breezy.
We’re going to have a warm front approach the region tonight with scattered clouds. The winds are going to start coming out of the south at 5 to 15 mph.
TOMORROW
We’re still going to be under the influence of the trough. This will produce scattered clouds and isolated rain showers. The warm front is going to continue to approach and move through the region with increasing clouds and scattered isolated thunderstorms. Winds will be coming in from the southeast at 5 to 20 mph. With the southern flow temperatures are going to become warmer than today.
TOMORROW NIGHT
We’re going
to be watching a cold front cuts approach from the west. As this moves east the
severe thunderstorm threat is going to shift into our region and much of the
eastern United States. Ahead of the front winds will be from the southwest at 5
to 20 mph. There could be an isolated shower or thunderstorm ahead of the
approaching cold front.
Tuesday and
Wednesday are going to see near to or record high temperatures. Humidity is
also going to be quite high.
TUESDAY
The cold front will getting close to western parts of the region with increasing clouds. Scattered showers and thunderstorms are possible in afternoon into the evening.
The storm dynamics
should be lessening as the front moves in. But some of these thunderstorms
could be strong to severe. As the front moves into the heat and humidity. Here’s
a look at the SPC outlook for Tuesday.
The main risk from these storms will be strong damaging winds, heavy downpours, large hail, and frequent lightning. A couple of tornadoes can’t be ruled out.
WEDNESDAY
The cold front
will continue to advance across the region. Again, some of these storms will be
strong to severe, with the risk of high winds, large hail and sudden heavy downpours.
With all the humidity frequent lightning is also going to be an issue. Tornadoes can’t be completely ruled out. Our
high temperatures ahead of the front will be in the mid 80’s into the mid to
upper 90’s.
.
On Thursday the cold front will be moving into New England with showers and thunderstorms in the morning. During the day, skies are going to be clearing west to east. The cold front will be moving away from New England on Friday. There will be the risk for leftover showers, but these should be fairly isolated.
We going to have high pressure move in behind the front, this is going to cool us back off to around seasonal temperatures for the end of the week and through the weekend. Saturday is looking to be dry. But we will be watching an area of low-pressure approach on Sunday. This could produce scattered showers and thunderstorms
