Well, when you have a consistent pattern of many storms staying well north and west of the area, combined with high winds and low humidity, yes. And this will only get worse as we head further into spring or summer, unless we have a consistent pattern change or get lucky with a couple of super soaker events.
-
I could see that, with the fading sunlight and moving into drier air. Be nice to get some showers out of it though. Wouldn't be a bad thing.
-
That's going to be exciting in a couple of hours if that holds together. Derecho? That line had it's origins at least as far back as western Ohio.
-
Really impressive day/night temp swings. 29/76 out at Walpack, Sussex County. Probably see something similar tomorrow.
-
Same here. My anemometer isn't working properly, but they were probably the worst of the day so far. Unbelievable the wind here these past few months.
-
Yeah, looks like nothing is coming of it, other than a few spritzes or a brief downpour. Looks like I'll be watering.
-
Sparta plowed and salted our street. The plow was warranted but the salt was completely unnecessary. Currently getting a lighter end sleet/snow mix and 34 degrees.
-
Just finishing up a heavy band that lasted about a half hour. I'm up to 3" on parts of the grass and 1.5" on the street. No plows have been through.
-
2.25" on the grass, less on the sidewalk and pavement, but all surfaces covered. 32F with moderate snow. Nice!
-
The longest summer days are already at 8:30 sunset time in this area, as we are on DST from Early March-Early November. Making DST permanent would only impact on the remaining four months of the calendar year, as we would be eliminating the "Fall Back" in early November. Whenever this discussion comes up, it quickly becomes confusing for a lot of people, which is why it would be interesting if it passed, because I don't think a lot of folks understand what it will actually do (or not do).
-
I don't think it affects summer sunsets, but yeah, mid winter sunrises would be well after 8:00 AM.
-
Looks like it's incoming shortly. I was just saying to someone that a sunny 15-20 degree day with no wind and snow on the ground is nicer than a day like today in the upper 30s, damp, raw, and breezy. I don't think they were sold. Seeing a bit of spring snow tonight would make it worth it though. We'll see.
-
That might've been the same one that produced feet of snow in the Adirondacks on Memorial Day Weekend.
-
Few spritzes here and there, but the bulk of it going north. Looks like a small line has filled in that might get here in an hour or two. Temp 50 and overcast, and with a breeze, feels every bit of 30. A sunny day at 35 with no wind would feel better.
-
Christ, this is almost like a summer night. Temp 67, DP 63. Looks like temps are still in the mid 70s to the south. It's a good cure for dry skin.
-
1.25" with the thunderstorms last night. I'll take it. Dramatic cooldown from the 70s and humid yesterday afternoon to the 30s this morning, with wind chills in the 20s.
-
One hell of a light show out this way. Nearly constant thunder for the past half our with continuous flashes. Pretty incredible.
-
Thunderstorms here the past 3/4 hour. Light to heavy rain, along with decent lightening. Happy Spring!
-
Well west would be consistent with much of the pattern over the last 8 months.
-
On the Rutgers website, find New Brunswick and check the 5 minute data. Am I seeing a 23 degree drop in five minutes between 18:50 and 18:55?? Or am I nuts? Check Holmdel. 24 degree drop in fifteen minutes?
-
Someone might end up quite disappointed tomorrow, even if that front sets up 20-30 miles different from what's forecast, that's going to be a HUGE difference in temps.
-
What is that, like 80 in Sparta and 50 in the city?
-
Actually a nice day today with not too much breeze. High 47. I was expecting clouds this afternoon, but the sun stayed out, enough for a short hike that wasn't too cold.
-
It's damn lucky the outcome wasn't worse. That bus is destroyed. This wind is becoming tiresome. I don't recall seeing any wind advisories posted.
-
0.75" overnight. Not bad, matched most forecasts for my area.
