A fee degrees cooler today, but a little more cloud cover too this afternoon
Rain/Storms
Most of the wet weather will occur to the west. There is a marginal risk for severe weather. Rain will be moving southeast, most of the mid/upper level winds are from the northwest, which will steer rain/storms southeast.
Computer Models
Some of the models, like the HREF below, show rain making its way to SNJ this evening. There is a chance for an isolated storm to pop up in Philly and down into SNJ. Delaware has a better shot at rain with the low pressure moving through late tonight and overnight.
Pattern Change
We are currently in the middle of a pattern change. Active bering sea low pressure and North Atlantic High pressure are helping to establish a ridge-trough pattern in the U.S. we will be looking at the completion of this pattern around Friday and continuing into at least the middle of next week with average to slightly below average temps.
