Morning thoughts…

It will be variably cloudy and very warm. Showers and thunderstorms are likely, especially this afternoon and evening. High temperatures will reach the upper 80s and lower 90s in most of the region. Likely high temperatures around the region include:

New York City (Central Park): 90°

Newark: 95°

Philadelphia: 92°

The very warm weather will continue through the weekend.

Normals:

New York City: 30-Year: 84.5°; 15-Year: 85.1°

Newark: 30-Year: 85.9°; 15-Year: 86.9°

Philadelphia: 30-Year: 87.0°; 15-Year: 87.5°

South shore drought lives on, storms had no chance once they reached the sea breeze. That plus losing the daytime heating killed it. We need a more organized synoptic system to get the rain where it’s needed. Not a drop east of the Verrazano. 

Same here, but no sea breeze.  When you are in a drought, it finds any excuse NOT to rain.  Not even a drop...

Only a brief relaxation of the WAR in mid-August before getting stronger again during the 2nd half of the month. This fits with the rapid warming of the Western Atlantic. The marine heatwave has boosted the Atlantic SSTs near the all-time warmest for this time of year.

78/70 , 0.78 in the bucket.  Mostly cloudy this morning will cap highs today a bit, any larger breaks of sun will see low / perhaps some mid 90s.  Western Atlantic Ridge builds the bermuda highw and   Florida style pattern with pop up storms, some soakers the next 60 hours, mainly evening and overnight.  Boundary nearby to enhance training storms.  Hot, humid and stormy, sun out near / low 90s next few days with breaks of sun , Miami style..  Monday again could be less wet ahead of the front and more strong heat potential for an over performer  day. 

Front and subsequent trough comes through Tue (8/9) and with it more normal temps through next Thu (8/11) / Fri (8/12) before overall warmer pattern returns next weekend.  Rockies / Plains ridge looks to re build in Kansas and piece of that heat looks to push east.

RGEM is showing almost nothing for today too. This was another example of why we should be skeptical anytime the models show a good event several days in advance. As usual it fell apart and the terribly dry pattern continues. Just isolated activity the next couple days. Have to hope we get lucky today or tomorrow, but the luck here has been terrible so there's a good chance we won't get anything significant. Maybe we'll have a little better chance when the front comes through later tuesday or wednesday.

It's pretty incredible how bad they've been and it may turn out that last night was the most active day we'll see during this stretch

Old saying....When in drought leave it out.  Meaning rain out of the forecast in longer range 3-5 day forecasts.  This is a terrible pattern. Some will get lucky with heavier totals next 24-48 hours but not widespread and nothing that is going to end horrible dry spell for large portion of the area.

I dont expect widespread drought busting rains til fall or a tropical system but this still looked promising for at least a decent amount over the next 3 days. We'll see, maybe the models will be wrong again

Totally agree.  At this point the hit and miss showers are not going to cut it.  Fall coastal or tropical system will be what is needed to start reversing or fix in one fell swoop (if very wet TS) the negative rainfall departures.   This pattern is not going to cut it.  Only positive I see is if WAR remains dominate and westward enough is that any tropical system at least has a chance to affect the east coast either by coming up the coast of Gulf landfall and then remnants coming up along or east of the mountains.  Nothing happening over the next 1-2 weeks that's for sure.  Lets just hope the WAR can nose west enough to allow for that pathway down the road.  All the clouds this morning are doing the atmosphere no favors in terms of instability today.

POU and LGA are among the NY 90° day leaders at 20 through the 4th. Places like Newark and Freehold are at the top in NJ with over 30 days. Philly to Harrisburg have the most 90° days in PA.
