NJwx85 Posted May 5, 2017 Author Share Posted May 5, 2017 Lots of convection breaking out over SE VA. Most models bring that activity right through NJ tonight. It should be scattered, but looks more developed already than modeled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NJwx85 Posted May 5, 2017 Author Share Posted May 5, 2017 High res models including the NAM and RGEM did an excellent job of picking extreme NE NJ as the winner today. The heaviest band has trained right over the greater Newark area. Not surprised EWR is close to 3". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks like we are finally getting back into a more active pattern after a relatively long stretch of quiet weather over the last several months. I think this will be a much more active summer which will hopefully spill over into the fall/winter months as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
