SACRUS

Only a brief period of sun before clouds and storms. Already clouds pushing into EPA and close to NJ. We'll see if the 90s streak breaks for all or if any mid day clearing can push temps to continue the heat wave. More storms overnight and into Tuesday, again ny period of clearing should push temps close to 90 Tue (7/26) and Wed (7/27) before more stronger heat builds back Thu (7/28). Fri (7/29) more storms with front coming through before a dry/warm weekend as the Western Atlantic Ridge builds west. Warm/humid and overall more rain chances through the end of the month and beyond.

Met offense as dry as Central NJ these days. 9PM Round up: LGA: 94 EWR: 93 TEB: 92 New Brnswck: 90 NYC: 89

I think the chances increase later tomorrow / mon night into Tuesday.

Reminded me of the heat in 2010 and the 60s / dry heat. Sat was a bit more uncomfortable.

Clearing pushing out the milky white clouds, some late highs between 3 and 5 PM n the cards as the surge of 850 temps roll in. Bright blue skies

Loop is down again

Euro is forecasting 850 temps >18c again Thu (7/28) and into Fri (7/29) wit >20c just south of the region. Depending on rain could be the next 95+ heat day, once past Monday.

http://synoptic.envsci.rutgers.edu/site/imgs/vis_nj_anim.gif Up to 90 here about in line with yesterday. A bit more clouds though but warmer airmass

EWR had four consecutive 100 or higher July 4 - Ju 7th in 2010 and 54 90 degree (+) days for the summer.

88/62 off a low of 70. Only clouds would limit area wide near or record highs today and tomorrow. 95 - 100 in the area with the hotter/ dryer spots hitting low 100s. Front approaches tomorrow with storms and clouds ahead of the main passage and depending on clouds from those advanced storms will determine if we get more stron heat on Monday (7/25). Tue (7/26) depending on how much rain / storms linger if the 90s plus heatwave streak is broken for the majority of the area. Wed (7/27) The W. Atlantic Ridge begins to expand west for what looks like a period into and beyond the end of the month. Initially its a Bermuda high type pattern through the end of the work week Fri (7/29) and into next weekend, more humid , warm and continued storm chances (much increased). At times it looks like the W .A.R will connect with the WC/ROckies ridge and pushe stronger heat into the area. The next shot at some stronger heat would be Thu (7/28) and Fri (7/29) and then the middle of the next week. Overall warm to hot pattern but should see much increased storm chances.
