The SPC actually scaled back the slight risk for portions of NJ and placed them in a marginal risk for now. We will see if things get bumped back further north in later outlooks.

Out of my subforum - but just an FYI - looks like there was an error. The outlook was amended about 1hr after being issued. Larger extent to risk area in your region.

I like the York/Lancaster/Chester county areas as a potential hotspot for an elevated risk for a tornado tomorrow around 17z-20z. Models showing some supercells forming and rolling through the area. Hodographs are very curvy due to the insane shear and wind profile up above, the LCL looks to be around 400-500 meters which is favorable too. If any sun can pop out for a time and boost SBCAPE values, watch out. Could be an interesting time tomorrow. Oh, and check out the 12z NAM. Snow on wednesday?

I saw that (for Wednesday)... is that a modified Wiggum rule effect?

Was a degree warmer for a low here this morning compared to yesterday (36 vs 35) and it took a bit for the temps to creep up from that with the overcast that comes and goes with breaks of sun, but currently 66 and warming nicely now.

Just watched Ch6/Accu weather, really going nuts w/the wind tomorrow w/a forecast of up to 70mph. I seen winds up to 50mph which is strong.....somewhat rare gust up to 60mph....but 70mph w/o a tropical storm is really rare. Considering a good dump of rain and the predicted winds stuff will come down.

Weird because alot of the 10m wind charts are 25-30 nothing higher. I've seen 10m much more aggressive in the past.

pretty calm out here now, one gust 25mph so far hopefully we luck out and it’s not bad. 

I think there are 2 more events to come - lifting of a warm front (with associated precip) and then the arrival of the strong cold front with the possible severe thunderstorms later this afternoon I think.
