May 2020 Observations & Discussions

Storm right over me now. Raining hard and bloooooooooooowing.

More to come, I think.

Radar is fired up. Does look like the heaviest lines may be in the more northern part of the region but I’m holding out hope down here.

This will die out after the mountains and the sun will have set long b4 gets to NJ and NYC area. That line is way more than 3 hours away it's still in western pa. I don't see much for NJ or southern and NYC atea. We will see.

Storms continue encroaching on the area.

Hit a high of 84.9*, what a gorgeous day, even got a little sunburn as I took a vacation day and just chilled in the backyard. It doesn't look like NENJ will see too much action besides rain and wind, nothing severe, we'll see...

Yawn not even a drop of rain. Another threat let down. What a surprise.

Meh. Run of the mill T’Storm here. Nothing severe, nothing special. Barring something bigger overnight, nothing to write home about. Once again New England wins.

It was raining heavily from 8:30 to 10 pm with some thunder in between. For sure a soaker. It would have been bad to be out in it. Wind gusts of 35 mph. Nothing crazy insane but definitely blowing hard, trees swaying, very heavy rain in bursts with a dash of thunder. A welcomed distraction

Got skunked again last night hardly any rain here in NENJ. But we'll make up for it soon. This is Tuesday, GFS gives us over 2" of  rain by Wednesday....




Nam is a bit slower and OTS

GFS bring it up the coast and EURO has nada goes from one run of 6" of to nada

GFS wetness

So much for the rainy week. If the current models hold we may not see a drop of rain until Wednesday night or Thursday. Looks like Arthur clips the Outer Banks and heads OTS as these things tend to do.

It looks like the sub tropical system will remain off the coast.

Memorial weekend not looking good

I guess Arthur may hangout down the shore (just off the coast)? I thought it was supposed to make a right and head away from us?

Hey Phil.  The weather for the holiday weekend wouldnt be from Arthur.  You are correct in that he will make a Right and head harmlessly OTS.  Soon.  The weekend weather will be a series of mid level shortwaves triggering precip because the air will likely be fairly humid. I dont think it will be a washout. As of now late Sat into early Sunday looks the worst but timing is everything.

Cheers!

figures though that a long holiday weekend will have unsettled weather. Not that I have anywhere to go but it would have been nice to be in my backyard with the sun out or at least a dry weekend

Saturday looks like crap!! Rainy and cool with highs in the low 60's!!
Record lows possible tonight!

Ahhh but 80's next week!

92% humidity. Raining. 65 degrees. A tea and a good book day.

Interesting how that area of rain over NYC and easten NJ is rotating like the center of a hurricane, is it the center of a LP?

Crazy day today this morning I woke up it was foggy and Very muggy as the afternoon went on we had On off heavy showersNow it’s very windy and chilly
