It looks like this won't be such a bad week for weather and water conditions, right now. This week will start off dry during the day Monday with scattered showers and thunderstorms moving in Monday Night, Tuesday and Tuesday Night. Dry conditions will return again for Wednesday through Friday. Highs will vary from mid 80's to upper 70's this week with overnight lows varying from the mid 60's to upper 50's. Water conditions look good for all locations all week except for Wednesday. Wednesday could bring Small Craft Advisories especially for areas from Barnegat Inlet South and all Midshore to Offshore locations. Water temperatures are holding with rivers and bays in the upper 60's and 70's, while inshore northern waters and midshore to offshore waters are in the lower 60's and inshore southern waters are in mid to upper 60's. Surf conditions looks normal except for Wednesday conditions could become moderate.
Low pressure will track from the Great Lakes into Southeastern Canada into Monday. A weak cold front associated with it will settle in our area Sunday Night into early Monday. A secondary cold front should then arrive Tuesday with a weak low pressure system forming along it. High pressure will then build into the area on Wednesday and Thursday before shifting to our east Friday into Saturday.
The weekend looks good right now. Dry conditions with more sun than clouds and highs into the low to mid 80's. Water and surf conditions look good too for all locations. Hope this holds true as the weekend nears.
There is an Invest in the Caribbean which should only affect Central America and Mexico if it becomes anything more than a low. There is a chance of severe weather across central portions of the US this week, too, but very small areas with very low chances.
