THE LOW OFF THE COAST OF NJ MAY ACTUALLY DRIFT SOUTHWARD BEFORE FINALLY MOVING OUT TO SEA... AFTER A COOL DOWN EARLY THIS WEEK, A WARM UP SEEMS LIKELY

That low pressure system that brought us the rain on Friday is actually going to try to take one more swipe at us today (Monday). This is the storm that wreaked havoc in parts of the Northeast over the weekend. (See my post from yesterday). The low is expected to drift southward before drifting out to sea. This southward push coupled with some energy and moisture on the low's western side may bring us some showers or sprinkles today. The NW breeze will keep us a bit on the cool side. Tuesday will be another cool day, but temperatures are expected to slowly inch up later this week. Spring is just a week away so I think it's safe to say that winter weather is over for Hampton Roads. I grew up in Northern New Jersey and I could remember seeing snow well into April. Back in 1982, there was a blizzard up there on April 6th which snowed out the New York Mets home opener. I can still see the front page of the NY Daily News that showed a picture of Shea Stadium covered in snow. That's it for now. Have a great day.
