61 foggy, rainy, and breezy here on cape cod. We must be one of the coolest spots in the country right now. Got the fire going in late june.

Fire going and 61? Are you orginally from down south? lol

Also, i'm sure there was many locations around the country that were much cooler than the cape today. Hell, I'm sure Mt washington was atleast 10 degrees cooler! lol

line looks healthy..let's see if it survives. elevated but maybe a good light show.

Looks like it's going to be awhile before the storms make it into the nyc area.

I have some very heavy rains to my southeast heading directly for my area in the poconos right now. Mt holly issued a special weather statement for Monroe Pa, Sussex and Warren Counties in Nj for very heavy rains and winds up to 40 mph. I think Binghamton nws forgets my county sometimes lol.

It looks like a major squall line (linear system) tomorrow evening with significant winds 50 knts, that ends the backdoor wedge very late tomorrow. Looks like it will become elevated and sustained strong for the entire LI area as well. Looks like a possible 30% wind outlook in the cards for tomorrow with jet, elevated instability and outstanding shear. Isolated tornado spin up F0 to F1 tomorrow near warn front. It probably will be OVC for LI and NYC with sunshine just 15 miles southwest of NYC. There could be some mixing out of the ST OVC as the squall line approaches around 5:00 PM.

There's some clearing to the SW of NYC. Maybe some sun can help us out today.

Unless the warm front moves north I think Long Island and southern new england will be stuck in the fog and drizzle for most of the day. Areas south of Trenton will be the best locations for sun.

We'll have to watch the potential today for some storms to take on rotation near the warm front.

sounding is pretty Meh. Maybe we will get some weak rotation but i think the storms yesterday are going to be better than anything that comes up today

that sounding for OKX is not encouraging. Saturated close to the 900mb level, it is going to be tough to break that thick cloud layer.

LI sucks and TT are barely into slight severe.

I would be careful gauging a severe weather threat for the entire area from the 12z OKX sounding... Back southwest of NYC im interested to see what happens as we have low LCL's, good 0-1km srh and of course good surface based instability down near the clearing. The wind speeds do kinda suck though. We shall see.

Nice cell popped up south and east of Trenton

Agree...the models have the clearing pushing northeast into pretty much the far southwest portion of the OKX CWA. The severe threat is less to the northeast with the warm front struggling a bit there.

Regardless..there's 1500 joules of elevated cape already into Northeast New Jersey...so the storms should at least be able to maintain themselves, albeit elevated.

Any time you have a warm front in the vicinity..the potential exists for something nasty, especially with good surface heating to the south of it.

I have a 2:30 tee time at Great Gorge which looks to be in jepordy taking a look at the upstream radar out of PA. Storms are already firing over central jersey and new storms are popping up and gaining intensity in eastern PA. Probably another day with a limited severe threat. Wind damage and flash flooding look to be the main threats.

The NAM keeps most of the area dry until tonight. Too bad its been next to worthless lately. The HRRR also keeps us dry through at least early afternoon. I could see that happening but it wont last long enough to save my golf game. Those showers in PA are numerous and could evolve into a mesoscale rain event.

I'll take a good severe storm but you guys can keep the heavy rain producers. We are all flooded out again here in NJ. The sixth time this year we have gotten to at least minor flood stage.

absolutely, the elevated instability is more than enough to maintain whatever cells develop and move northeast of the warm front. This has happened the past 2 days. The storm with golf ball hail(though im skeptical of this) in Rockland county/damaging wind in SW Connecticut as well as both Supercells that entered NW Jersey Wed and Thurs. Surface was pretty darn stable in areas that saw some beastly storms.

Watch just issued for all of NJ except NE NJ, eastern PA, and Delaware.

Saw that. It appears the storms that pulsed over eastern PA earlier have lost a little bit as they moved east, no doubt in response to the more stable environment but more should fire, the question is what is left of them when they get to nyc metro and out of western south western jersey.
