Long Island Weather Improves Slowly Over The Next Few Days

Rainfall overnight from the cold front was in a range of about an inch or so. A few places getting a bit more and a few getting a bit less. We have lots of leftover clouds around this afternoon and there will be some breaks of sun in the mix. Temperatures have settled into the 40s and should remain there for the rest of the day. We are done with the rain as it has all moved out to the east. No additional showers are in the forecast.

Low pressure on the cold front has moved to our north and the New England regional radar is showing heavy rain and some snow in New England and Northern NY. Otherwise as we look to the west and south the Mid Atlantic regional radar is quiet.

Tonight will start with leftover clouds but we should clear out later tonight. Lows should bottom in the lower 30s. Sunday looks like no worse than mix of sun and clouds with highs in the mid 40s.

Monday brings an upper trough through early in the day and that will allow for some clouds and maybe a snow shower passing through. Then we should go to a mix of sun and clouds with highs in the upper 30s to lower 40s. Tuesday continues the sun and clouds scheme with highs in the upper 30s the near 40.

We remain in a very suppressed (or “depressed”) pattern this week thanks to the super strong Greenland/Davis Strait block in the North Atlantic so the next weather system that comes along in the southern jet stream passes well south of us late this week. This will keep us under a cold northwest flow and that low will allow for slightly colder air for the second half of the week. Wednesday will see highs in the 30s to near 40 and highs Thursday and Friday will be in the 30s. In order for weather systems to reach us we are going to need to see the block relax somewhat in the Atlantic. Weather models are hinting at a possible slight relaxation long range in the block today but we can’t be certain of that at the moment. For now it will be chilly and dry until further notice.
