A mostly sunny week is on tap with temps ranging from mid 60s to low 70s. Expect rain showers Tuesday afternoon. The weekend is also shaping up to be dry though some models have a coastal storm off the coast. Bares watching

This is not a hot or summary pattern but a rather N to BN IMO as per the graphic below.
With the transition from an absolutely torch of a Nino to a La Nina the EPO is flexing its muscle here as Nino dies off.
Also there is no real heat on GFS going out - the 500mb pattern not showing this but cool nights and 70* type of days - normal for this time of year. May looks to end up BN if this comes to fruition. June I think at this time will be a near N month - patterns such as this do not seems to be breaking down anytime soon.

Would suck if the coastal comes to fruition this weekend. Would be a complete washout. Ridge tries to trap the trough over the east. Cut off low forms.

GFS is ugly with this look for the east coast IF it come sto fruition - cut off low in the MA region - perceptual marine onshore flow with this.

Been watching the weekend forecast like a hawk since I'm going camping this weekend on the east end of LI  and I'm essentially the outfitter for the group. It was looking good, but now we get a coastal popping on the models for this weekend. I try to avoid asking for personal forecasts, but if anyone wants to share their thoughts on the weekend forecast for the east end I'd appreciate it.

I'm preparing for the worst (and the GFS putting out 2" of wind driven rain is the worst), but hoping for a better forecast.

Same here I'm going on my annual golf trip with a big group of friends to ocean city Maryland on Monday and what looked like a great forecast days ago seems to be fading fast

it may end up being the second low that impacts us early next week rather than the weekend system.

with the dying super-nino high lat blocking, near record -epo, ao and nao, came on with a fury this spring (esp april and may). so my question is for anyone who can answer is, did the super-nino interfere with and overwhelm these tele connectors forcing them to remain in a positive state most of winter? if yes can we assume when strong el-nino rears it's ugly head in future years we can expect the same?

pete it seems like systems this spring have trended south and east as we get closer in time probably because of the near record high lat blocking. that blocking has relaxed some now but I would favor the s/e trend for the weekend system. east end of LI probably has the highest chance of seeing significant rain. models should have better handle by 12z Thursday.
