Next 8 days averaging 67degs., or 7degs. AN.

Still thinking first 90deg. day/outbreak near 5/21-5/25.  Holiday weekend looks to be a clash between southeast ridge and a very cold Canadian airmass---probably wet.

Big spring warm up on the way. 50's and 60's along the South Shore beaches and upper 80's near 90 further inland. Ocean temps are still in the mid 40's. Pretty good Ambrose Jet set up with plenty of blowing sand down in Long Beach.

April ended at  -3.6.     This puts the year to date at a  -0. 18.   It took 3 negative months to wipe out the damage from Feb.

J    -0.9*31=-28     F   +6.7*28=+188     M   -2.4*31=-74     A   -3.6*30=-108   or  -22/120=-0.18deg. for the YTD. 

Temp. here is now 63, up from 48 at 7AM.

It will be one of those days where the fog races inland but only makes it to the bridge. And will only be a couple hundred feet thick. 

Luckly the SS scored a perfect spring day today with the light offshore flow

Up in the 70's earlier and now down the the 60's with a nice breeze off the water. The sea breeze is one of my favorite parts of living on the South Shore. I am not a fan of those summer 588+ dam ridge hot offshore flow days.

Got a full three hours on beach here w/o much of a wind factor.  One more warm/sunny day tomorrow, then it appears like clouds or more bust up the party Thur., Fri., Sat., Sun., Mon.  Decent temps. hold on so far it seems.

Next 8 days up to an average of 69degs., or about 8degs. AN.

While the GFS cries 'How dry I am' for the next 10 days---CMC has some rain on the 6th. & 10th.  High CAPE on 4th/5th so might change.

Rossby Wave Train looks cooler than recent runs for rest of May/June.   It has June/July/Aug. period a little AN however.

If the NAM is right, we see severe in the area Thursday and maybe Friday.  SPC “slight” risk area is closer to best forcing but parameters are great near NYC if something fires, with plenty of speed shear for organized storms and lots of CAPE.  Nested NAM looks like it wants to fire some splitting supercells near Port Jervis and coverage should remain scattered, so anything that does fire down by NYC won’t turn into our usual messy line in 45 minutes.  Probably nothing but something to monitor at least while we armchair chase the Plains.
