pretty bad call for the warmth and storms today. Yes, areas to the extreme s and w did "warm up" but I more people than not stayed cold. The srefs were a big fail on the storms.

Yeah the cold NAM wiped the floor with all those SREFS this time. What was NYC's high today, 65?

GFS is warmer again next week...Tuesday looks like a warm day. 2m temps are into the mid 70's Tuesday & Wednesday.

We're definitely going to have warm 850s next week with the strong low over the Plains/Midwest and the continued lack of high-latitude blocking. However, it seems as if whenever we approach these chances for heat, they inevitably fall apart with strong S/SE flow and cloud cover/showers. The GFS has been showing lots of cloudiness in this warm sector as well, with the winds ahead of the cutter being almost due south.

Friday night/Saturday morning will be chilly with 850s around 0C as a line of showers approaches, definitely chances for flurries in the high country of NE PA, SE NY, NNJ...I think most of us stay in the 40s Saturday with low 50s possible in Downtown Manhattan, Central NJ, and the usual milder places:

Although warmth builds in Saturday night, a front approaches Sunday and cools us down again...the afternoon definitely should see temperatures dropping into the 40s/low 50s as more showers associated with a strong cold front approach the area:

Warm 850s arrive early next week but that huge high near the Canadian Maritimes is going to pump in a lot of easterly flow, and there should be some clouds around as well:

Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday are over 70 degrees on the 0z euro.

Saturday now has over 1.10" of rain. Easter Sunday is upper 50's with rain in morning and in the afternoon and Monday is in the 60's but will drizzle.

What a crappy pattern. I hope it doesn't rain on Easter.

Temp back up into the mid 60s in the city. Win.

The High temperature for many areas today will have been recorded overnight rather than during the day, it will struggle to get back to the mid 60's during the daylight even with the late April sun today. Interesting to also note with the temperature spike last night in the city, LGA went from 55 degrees at 12AM to 65 by 1AM. Impressive 10 degree jump given the hour, but that's what happens when the marine influence is pushed out immediately preceding spring time cold fronts. If everything was timed differently, and that passage occurred during the day, 80's would have occurred area-wide. So yesterday's failure to achieve forecast highs in some locations, was more an issue of timing rather than potential. Would not be surprised to have this repeated in the coming weeks. More optimistic that this is not a cool regime that we're in along the coast - it is a typical early spring time climate - the warmth and HEAT is VERY close-by.

It also keeps things unsettled, but it's not nearly as wet as the NAM in the short term.

yea... some fully sunny days with good mixing would be very nice.. at least if we can get that for a few days.. I can't tell you how frustrating yesterday was. Though we did break out into a lot of sunshine yesterday afternoon, the temps here didn't completely respond how I would have liked.. we stuck in the lower 60's.. winds stayed very light and we were never able to fully mix out the inversion from the morning unfortunately... I mean, it was still much nicer than being stuck in the 40's, but it would have been nice to get to over 70.

We are having a normal spring.While it may be a bit cooler than normal this month,it is by no means cold.The wet dreary rainy regime we are in is normal,even into a good chunk of MAY it can be nasty.April 1997 was very chilly,much worse than this.Heck,May 2002 was a chilly raw month as well.My front yard which was destroyed by the 9/16/10 macroburst and cost me over $10,000 to replace is loving this wet cool weather.

It's actually not cooler than normal, most places are actually running near to a bit above. In fact today is about as close to a "normal" spring day as you'll see. Average highs are in the low 60s and most places are in the 58-61 range as of 2pm with a few hours of daytime heating left.

yep. I just checked my report from my weather station for this April and I am running very slightly above normal so far this month.. already 2 inches above average as far as rainfall goes..

saturday might have a late high with a warm fropa around 19z

yea... saturday night is a little tricky too.. we get a warm surge but then it looks like a weak surface high wants to build in the following morning.. but winds upstairs are still rather brisk, so I don't think it's a night where temps will drop all that much.
