MANDA Posted May 21, 2023 Share Posted May 21, 2023 Had .48" rainfall here. Double what I was expecting. I'll take it. Once to the Delaware River amounts dropped off to near nothing. The wetter models over NJ were very overdone and the drier models were underdone. Long Island into SNE did the best which is what nearly all the guidance had. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WestBabylonWeather Posted May 21, 2023 Share Posted May 21, 2023 This leads to low pressure and offshore moisture being drawn in from the SE and E at some point during the holiday weekend from the ECMWF, and a bit later out in time from the CMC GEM. It may work out that this offshore moisture does not get tapped, depending on how the upper level low forms and manifest itself. In the meantime strayed form consensus guidance a bit and added more cloud cover and added slight chance PoPs for the start of the weekend. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

donsutherland1 Posted May 22, 2023 Share Posted May 22, 2023 Tomorrow will be fair and mild with readings reaching the lower and middle 70s. After mid-week, cooler air will overspread the region. Typically, a very warm April is followed by a somewhat cooler than normal May in the Middle Atlantic region. With the guidance now showing a late week cool shot, the probability of a somewhat cooler than normal May has increased. The ENSO Region 1+2 anomaly was +2.4°C and the Region 3.4 anomaly was +0.5°C for the week centered around May 10. For the past six weeks, the ENSO Region 1+2 anomaly has averaged +2.57°C and the ENSO Region 3.4 anomaly has averaged +0.28°C. Neutral ENSO conditions will likely prevail through at least mid-spring. El Niño conditions will very likely develop during the summer. The SOI was -25.87 today. The preliminary Arctic Oscillation (AO) was +2.162 today. On May 19 the MJO was in Phase 6 at an amplitude of 1.853 (RMM). The May 18-adjusted amplitude was 2.018 (RMM). Based on sensitivity analysis applied to the latest guidance, there is an implied 52% probability that New York City will have a cooler than normal May (1991-2020 normal). May will likely finish with a mean temperature near 63.0° (0.2° below normal). 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TWCCraig Posted May 22, 2023 Share Posted May 22, 2023 Forecast for today is sunny, but today is akin to a day with tons of high level clouds/cirrus due to all the smoke in the sky from the wildfires. It gives that dull, gloomy feeling to what should be a sunny day. Bummer 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
