Midweek Nor'easter Update
The Nor'easter is tracking farther east (out to sea) which means a few things for us:
- It will still be windy, but the dangerously high winds (and the ones that could have wrought havoc on already hard-hit areas) will stay out to sea. Winds here will be 15-25mph with gusts of 30-35mph.
- The storm will be weaker, so the worst-case rain totals and flooding should not materialize.
- Only a quarter to two-fifths of an inch of rain will come our way, so the precipitation will be mostly light and intermittent.
- Some forecast models depict accumulating snow with this event, but due to a variety of factors (sun angle, surface temperature, ocean temps, etc.) any snow we see will be wet snow or a mixture, and will accumulate only on grasses. Accumulating snowfall only in higher elevations. Accumulating snow possible (2 to 4 inches) in central and northern NJ and northeast PA, especially on Wednesday evening. Most issues will be in New England.
- I don’t see travel problems (or school delays/closures) with this event.
Looking ahead...
High in the 50s on Saturday, 60s from Sunday through Tuesday. Partly to mostly sunny throughout, and no rain!
Tuesday 11/13 will have some rain, followed by colder temperatures - breezy with highs only in the 40s...
