SACRUS

Clouds thinning into EPA and looks like we may get some sun this afternoon.

2.56 inches last night here in CNJ. Other areas in Monmouth. Middlesex with 3 - 4 inches. EWR getting clocked now.

77/76. Nearly 2 1/2 inches of rain overnight with persistent and prolonged thunderstorms. Like yesterday clouds should dissipate in the afternoon but unlike yesterday temps should stay below 90 with additional showers and storms through the PM. Sat we dry things out and warm it back up. Inland areas not impacted by coastal seabreeze will close in and resume the next stretch of 90s. Sun - Tue strong heat peaking MOn and Tue with 850MB temps near 22C which should translate to upper 90s and some stray triple digits. Have to watch storms Tue and stronger storms on Wed as front moves through and should bring temps back towards normal to close out July Thu (7/30) - Fri (7/31) Warm and wet opening to August. Western Atl Ridge nearby and retrogrades west into the Southeast at times and Rockies/Plains ridge ejecting heat at times that migrate east into the MW/GL and east. Humid, warm and at times hot with plenty of storms chances. Likely see 1 to 2 day surges of heat with plenty of storms and need to watch tropical activity as well. Can see a similar pattern evolve to what we have seen the last 10 days towards the second week of August with more ridging into the MW/OV and WAR nearby potentially hooking really raising heights.

Tropics ramping up. WAR looks to pulse / retrograde west at times with Rockies/Plains ridge occasionally pushing east. August looks wet and warm and maybe Tropics EC and GOM.

We'll see if its possible to eeak out some 90s tomorrow. Think it'll be tougher with clouds again / showers and 850 temps closer to 16C rather 18c like today. Saturday think is onshoreish for a period before the flow whips around. Sun - Tue very hot Wed toss up before front/storms.

Clouds dissipating now, lets see how temps respond.

That front coming next week Wed (ish) 7/29 could be some big widespread severe potential as it looks now. Could be interesting tracking near record heat to some big time storms. A real summer weather enthusiasts type of week. Perhaps even add some tropical tracking at some point next week for the Gulf.

Anyone else have a cache issue while posting real-time animated GIF of sattellite or radar images. Once posted in a thread even if several days later when posting a new image it goes back 24 hours. Really odd.

76/73 and mostly cloudy. Clouds stretch back to OH and pending on what can burn off today's highs may be capped in the 80s. More storms may also fire pending on where and any heating when it clears. Friday and Sat (somewhat onshore) we dry things out and stay warm near 90 before the next surge of heat arrives Sunday (7/26). Strong heat for 3 or 3/5 days Sun (7/26) through Tue (7/28)/Wed (7/29) before strong cold front. 850 temps surge to >18c Sun pm through Wed AM and may exceed 21C for a time on Mon and Tue. This offers the next chance of triple digits but likely more widespread 95(+) EWR/LGA may get there with enough sun. 850MB temps surge is closer to the area as currently forecast'd this week. Cooldown as ridge migrates west into the Rockies and Plains 7/29-30 through about Aug 2/3 pushing a trouh into the east before more heat is ejecting into the region. The early Aug period may feature more strong S/SW flow and greater humidity before strong heat returns beyond there. Western Atlantic Ridge looks to retrograde in the long range with strong ridge building into the upper Plains/GL and tropical activity potentially heating up in the Gulf of Mexico.

First rain since Fay (Jul 10) for a bunch of the area in the next 2 hours and this evening. Cloud deck should put the lid on any more heating and storms will subsequently follow. Overall felt like the hottest day here.

93/74 here HI of - super sweaty

Storm in NW-NJ and activity in E-C PA pushing east arrival near 4:30

clouds in PA to about Harrisburg, some burn off too. Think we are partly sunny through 1:30 for most. Should get most places to another 90. Time will tell.
