Severe storm risk Sunday covers Pennsylvania, New York & New England ahead of humidity relief

The weekend begins with what is left of a dry air mass that arrived yesterday. It is going to be short lived but we do have a better longer lasting dry air mass for next week. Today sees dew points go up but slowly. We should see some sunshine though there is a warm front setting up to the south and radars are popping up some light showers in parts of Southern Pennsylvania and Southern New Jersey but I don’t expect them to be a big deal. Most highs today will be in the low to middle 80s.

Tonight we will see a warm front move northward and that will set off some showers and maybe a thunderstorm or two in some places. Overnight temperatures will likely hold in the upper 60s and lower 70s for the most part and that sets us up for a very warm and humid Sunday. A cold front will be approaching and there likely will be showers and thunderstorms running around especially Sunday afternoon into the evening. The Storm Prediction Center is indicating the possibility of severe weather with a 15 percent chance for severe storms from Northeast Pennsylvania, Northern New Jersey north and east to the Hudson Valley and much of Southern, Central and Eastern New England. A marginal risk for isolated severe storms lies to the south across the Southern halfs of New Jersey, much of the rest of Pennsylvania south into Maryland and Virginia.
