Wednesday Evening Weather Update = Spring is here

-
Updated:2350z/19:50/7:50pm

---------------------------------FORECAST-----------------------------------

TONIGHT - Lows in the mid 40's, clear for the most part.

THURSDAY - Sun in the morning will transition to clouds towards the afternoon/evening as a coastal storm develops well to the south of us. Highs in the low 60's.

FRIDAY - What was suppose to be a nor'easter hitting us is now an ocean storm that will head out to sea, that being said we could see a few showers in the afternoon. Otherwise, mostly cloudy maybe some sun and highs near 60°.

SATURDAY - Partly sunny and we get back into the low to mid 60's, sunny for the most part as High pressure builds over the area.

-------------------------FORECAST DISCUSSION-------------------------

Liked the warmth today eh???? Well...lets get back to slightly cooler temps and then back to much warmer temps...such is spring!

Tomorrow will be slightly cooler as we get an east flow off the ocean, as we all know ocean breezes during the day will bring cooler temps - its why we love the beach! Quickie little "lesson" in basics of sea breezes: During the day the air warms very quickly compared to the water (takes a lot more energy to heat water then land) and this warm air rises and creates lower pressure over the land then water. Cool air over the water sinks, and this is our High pressure...now of course this can be altered if there is another system to change it, but in general, because of the pressure gradient between land and water, we get wind. During the night this usually reverses....OK, Now tomorrow will be a bit more of a "sea" breeze, easterly flow will cool things down a bit.

NRG will dive south from the lakes (short wave) thursday night to help our Nor'Easter (misser) to form and so we cannot rule out a slight slight chance of showers in the evening-nighttime...but I doubt it.

Overall the upper trough that has been affecting our area will begin to retrograde this weekend, but during this time we cannot rule out some showers friday night as some "spokes" of nrg drop down and out. High pressure will begin to build over the area to our east and ridging to the west, temps warm up...SW flow in the beginning of the week as the Jet moves north will bring some warm warm temps to the start of the week...high 70's and likely 80° to low 80's maybe, upper air pattern all over the place right now and cold front looks to come through around same time might mess our temps up a bit...we shall see! Signs shifting to a nice and warm may, not too warm but not too cold, and Florida will get a nice break into cooler temps smile emoticon

Have a great night!

About Us

Remy Mermelstein - I am 16 and in 10th grade at Irvington High School in Irvington, NY. My love for weather has been around all my life, starting with my absolute obsession with winter and snowstorms since I was a toddler. In addition to weather, I pursue an active life in architecture, interning at a local architects office (Website can be found HERE) and doing many community projects, building, designing and landscaping. I am pursuing a pilot’s license as well, and my knowledge and love for weather helps greatly when flying. My weather page, Weather or Not in the Rivertowns with Remy Mermelstein has been up for about a year now, and I update it at least every other day or more with the latest in weather. I study weather extensively on my own time, and am extremely active in the forums on many weather sites, my favorite being Weatherbell where the knowledge of some of the world’s greatest forecasters are available to me, as well as the massive community of meteorologists, climatologists and pure hobbyists this world has. Dillon and I are also currently working with Joe D'aleo on Science Research involving correlations and effects between the NAO/AO/AMO/PDO...etc... Every day brings a new realm of learning to us here at Weather in the Hud, and every day we learn more. So thank you for joining us here to read our forecasts! And, as always, if you have suggestions, advice about our posts, or the weather and our forecasting PLEASE tell us - we are still students and we recognize that, and want to learn as much as we can. Thank you.

Dillon Palmieri – Hi! I am a sophomore at Irvington High School in New York. Like my colleague Remy, my obsession with meteorology started at a young age when I became fascinated by tornadoes at the age of four. From there, my interest in the field expanded to winter storms, severe weather, and finally grew enough for me to want to create my own weather forecasts. Starting last spring (2014), I began officially doing weather forecasts for the public in the Hudson Valley region with Remy on our Facebook page Weather or Not in the Rivertowns. Our popularity quickly grew into hundreds of followers as our forecasts were consistently accurate and provided detailed information that would otherwise not be provided for a specific area such as the Hudson Valley. I also am currently working with Joe D'Aleo, a very well-known meteorologist employed at Weatherbell on a science research project studying the effects of the AMO, PDO, NAO, and AO on global climate. I wish to thank you for visiting our site and please know we welcome any and all input from our followers to make our site better.
