Weather Synopsis: Wednesday June 26, 2013

The heat across the Northeast continues today as we brace for yet another 90+ degree day here in the New York City Metropolitan area. Along with the heat the humid air mass in place over the region will also give us the chance for pop-up thunderstorms in the evening.

 The storms will become more wide spread I think overnight tonight, through the day on Thursday and on into Friday as a low pressure system moves into the region from the Ohio river valley. This system of low pressure will make the atmosphere more unstable, this will increase the chance of precipitation in our area through Friday. On the plus side, the increased cloud cover will keep the temperatures at bay in the 80 degree range, however it will still feel rather muggy as this humid air mass continues its grasp over the region. What about the weekend? well its looking muggy and wet, though not a complete washout there is a chance of rain with the greatest chance of precipitation on Sunday.
