Up to 78 with some breaks of sun. Do think we are looking at some wetter times come 9/23 - 9/26 period.

Some showers and light rain into EPA/DE
-
73 / 57 clouds fast approaching from the west. So another 1 - 2 hours of this splendid weather. Rain by later this evening / tonight, already showers into PA. Rain tomorrow with trough pushing through. By Tue (9/19) heights are rising into the east with flow going around and onshore flow Wed (9/20) - Fri (9/22) . Flow goes southerly by Sat (9/23) wit an overall warm and wet look as the Atlantic ridge slows anything down along the coast. Could be a very wet finish, should the Atlantic ridge be stronger itll push heaviest rains west but current tendencies this year looks like coastal warm/wet tropics potential finish.

Lee's extra tropical expansion (clouds) spoiling a weekend from NE-NJ east. COuld see clearing in next few hours
-
61 / 51 and partly cloudy. On the edgde of Lee's cloud sphere. May get clearing in the next few hours working sw to ne. Dry and clouds keeping it in the 60s/70s again especially in NENJ/NYC/LI, while C/S/W NJ near 80. Sun (9/17) looking like a very pleasant day near normal. Trough dig in and next shot at showers and rain Mon (9/18). Could see >0.75 - 1.25 of rain. Beyond there heights rise into the east but onshore flow keeps it a bit above normal for highs the next 5 - 7 days but warm min/ lows. The Atlantic ridge is building west by at (9/23) and depending on how strong it is (over forecast much this summer) could be very warm finish or a warm / wet finish.

75 looks to be the high here for the day. Just a wonderful day, although ragweed/hayfever seems high. Do think tomorrow may not be as cloudy as forecast with Lee curret view and motion. We will see.

65 / 47 and a lovely day. Lee causing some breezes, and clouds in eastern sections. Overall nice stretch of weather this weekend, near normal. Clouds on Sat (9/16) from Lee keep it in near 80 despite warmth from the hurricane - so a bit more humid. Trough pushes front through Mon (9/18) with showers and rain. Beyond there ridging into the east, even though heights being forecast higher, think we have some onshore and cut offs. We'll see still overall warm period coming up think we max in the 80s. Tropics and any cutof could yield a wetter scenario.

72 / 51. On way to a gorgeous stretch of weather through the weekend. Only clouds from Lee (maybe from NJ shore east) Saturday (9/16) and waves/surf. Mid upper 70s and then back near or low 80s by Sun (9/17). Mon (9/18) next shot at showers/rain. Ridging into the east but some onshore flow and you see potential for cut off low undercutting an any ridging, but overall warm finish to Sep, need to watch for rain chances if anything cuts of nearby.
