Discussion

High pressure will remain in control of our weather into tomorrow, but then a strong cool front will push into the region by Thursday. This frontal system will bring much-needed rain to the area with an increasing chance for showers and thunderstorms later tomorrow and the likelihood of widespread showers and thunderstorms on Thursday. Following the front, cooler and less humid air will arrive on Friday and last through the weekend.

Discussion

High pressure will shift off the east coast this weekend and that will open the door for warmer and more humid air to move into the region from the southwest. In fact, high temperatures by Sunday and Monday will flirt with the 90 degree mark up and down the I-95 corridor from DC-to-Philly-to-NYC and the very warm weather should continue on Tuesday and Wednesday as well.

Discussion

High pressure will control the weather in the Mid-Atlantic region right through the upcoming weekend. Temperatures and humidity levels will remain comfortable for this time of year through tomorrow, but it’ll become increasingly uncomfortable this weekend with rising temperatures and humidity levels as the high pressure system shifts off the east coast. This shift in location of the high will allow for the development of a southwesterly flow of air this weekend and high temperatures will approach the 90 degree mark. Elsewhere, Tropical Storm Erika continues on a track that will likely bring this tropical system towards the Bahamas and then Florida by early next week.

High pressure builds in from the Midwest today and controls the weather around here for the rest of the week. Temperatures and humidity levels will be very comfortable for this time of year right through Friday, but it’ll become increasingly uncomfortable this weekend as the high pressure system shifts off the east coast and generates a low-level southwesterly flow of air.

Discussion

A weak frontal system is currently pushing towards the east coast and its passage will usher in another comfortable air mass for the Mid-Atlantic region. High pressure will control the weather from later today through the end of the week providing us with comfortable temperatures and humidity values.

Discussion

All in all, this looks like a pretty nice week in the Mid-Atlantic region. High pressure remains in control this morning across the Northeast US, but an approaching weak cool front should generate a few showers and thunderstorms later today and tonight. Humidity levels will climb somewhat ahead of the front, but it should turn more comfortable again post-frontal passage later tomorrow and the rest of the week looks quite comfortable.

Elsewhere, Danny reached a peak in intensity on Friday briefly reaching category 3 (major hurricane) status, but an increase in vertical wind shear and an encounter with dry air weakened the system to "tropical storm" status over the weekend. It will head into the area near or just south of Puerto Rico and Hispaniola during the next couple of days. Two more tropical waves are going to follow Danny across the tropical Atlantic over the next several days, but they also will battle some dry air in the overall environment.

Discussion

The very slow-moving cool front that has generated lots of rainfall for the Mid-Atlantic region during the past couple of days will continue to threaten the NYC metro region today with some shower activity. The weekend, however, will feature some lowering humidity values and while each day can have a shower or thunderstorm, some sunshine should also occur and temperatures should be rather comfortable.

Discussion

Waves of showers and thunderstorms associated with a slow-moving frontal system will affect the region from tonight through tomorrow night - and the rain will be very heavy at times. The atmosphere is full of moisture and is unstable enough to produce 2+ inches of rain in many spots along the I-95 corridor with localized flash flooding over the next 36 hours or so. This front will only crawl to the east coast and, in fact, will likely continue to cause some inclement weather (clouds, lingering showers) along coastal sections on Saturday and perhaps even into Sunday. Inland sections of the Mid-Atlantic will experience some improvement with a noticeable drop in humidity levels by the weekend.

6-Day NYC Forecast

Today

More clouds than sun, very humid, showers and thunderstorms possible later in the day, some of the rain can be heavy, highs in the low 80’s

Tonight

Showers and thunderstorms likely, some of the rain can be heavy, lows in the lower 70’s

Friday

Mainly cloudy, humid, occasional showers and thunderstorms, some of the rain will be heavy, low 80’s

Friday Night

Showers and thunderstorms still likely, some of the rain will be heavy, mild, upper 60’s

Saturday

Mainly cloudy, pleasant temperatures, still a shower and thunderstorm threat, near 80 degrees

Sunday

Mostly cloudy, comfortable, chance for showers and thunderstorms, low 80’s

Monday

Partly sunny, warmer, chance for showers and thunderstorms, mid 80’s

Tuesday

Partly sunny, pleasant, low 80’s

Discussion

The threat exists for torrential rain from tonight through tomorrow night in the NYC metro region as a very slow-moving cool frontal system inches across the region. This front will generate numerous showers and thunderstorms for the I-95 corridor and some of the rainfall will be heavy at times. In fact, many spots between later today and early this weekend will receive two or more inches of rain with only slight improvement for the weekend. Temperatures will hold in the 80’s for highs over the next couple of days due largely to copious amounts of clouds and the occasional rainfall.

7:00 AM | Numerous showers and thunderstorms from tomorrow through Friday and some of the rain will be heavy

6-Day NYC Forecast

Today

More clouds than sun, warm, humid, isolated afternoon showers and thunderstorms, highs in the middle 80’s

Tonight

Isolated showers and thunderstorms, mild, muggy, lows in the lower 70’s

Thursday

Mainly cloudy, not as warm, humid, showers and thunderstorms likely, some of the rain can be heavy, low-to-mid 80’s

Thursday Night

Showers and thunderstorms likely, some of the rain can be heavy, near 70 degrees

Friday

Mainly cloudy, a bit cooler, humid, showers and thunderstorms likely, some of the rain can be heavy, near 80 degrees

Saturday

Mainly cloudy, warm, still the threat for showers and thunderstorms, near 80 degrees

Sunday

Partly sunny, warm, chance for showers and thunderstorms, low 80’s

Monday

Partly sunny, warm, chance for showers and thunderstorms, low-to-mid 80’s

Discussion

A very slow-moving cool front will crawl across the region during the next few days generating occasional showers and thunderstorms and some of the rainfall will be heavy at times. Given the slow movement of the front, the threat for showers and thunderstorms will linger from later today into the weekend and many spots along the I-95 corridor will likely receive two inches or more of rain by the time the weekend rolls around. High temperatures will be confined to the 80’s over the next few days as a result of the abundant amount of clouds and occasional rain.
