Another Day of At Least Cloud Issues Showers Possible For Long Island
Yesterday’s washout on Long Island was confined just to Long Island where 2 to 3 inches of rain fell especially in Suffolk County where rainfall amounts were on the high end of that range. Looking at the satellite pictures and loops, the little coastal low offshore that was responsible for all this remains pretty much in the same place. It is a little weaker today than yesterday but expect showers to develop around the low. Bands will probably back westward and northwestward which means it could be downpouring one minute and partly sunny the next.
SATELLITE
Daytime heating will enhance some of the rain but judging from the radars this morning, the arc of heavy rain bands appear to be further to the east today than yesterday and coming into Southeastern New England rather than Long Island. Still the bands of showers are evident on the local radars and they will be an issue from time to time today. With all this going on, highs to day will be just in the 70s with a light onshore wind continuing.
WEATHER RADAR
The low finally weakens enough tonight that it gets ejected eastward and we can get the higher temperatures and humidity that have already arrived just to our west to move in on Tuesday. We will see sunshine back Tuesday with highs reaching the low and middle 80s. Wednesday Thursday & Friday will be very warm to hot and humid with highs inland in the mid 80s to near 90. I will throw in the chance for a pop up shower or thunderstorm Wednesday and maybe a slightly higher chance of a thunderstorm Thursday and Friday.
