I’m a third-year atmospheric science student at Cornell University who has been blogging about the weather since 2011. While I’m not officially a meteorologist, I have accumulated a bit of experience forecasting both local weather (in western Maine and New Hampshire) as well as national/international weather during my time writing for weather.us and weathermodels.com. I also have experience programming in Python, teaching concepts in weather forecasting, and communicating forecast information to general audiences.

Warm And Sunny Today

Hello everyone!

Today will feature more of the same with warm temps and sunny skies. A cold front without any cold air behind it passed through last night but its only significant impact will be to bring slightly drier air into the region today on NW winds. These NW winds will act to fend off any significant sea breeze as well as raise temps due to downsloping. Highs will rise into the mid to upper 80’s inland with low to mid 80’s in the mountains and along the immediate coast. Skies will be mostly sunny.

Hot And Sunny Today

Hello everyone! 

Today will feature sunny skies and increasing temps as warm air spills into the region on SW winds. Look for highs in the upper 70’s in the far north and along the coast while the interior warm spots likely get into the low 90’s. Skies will be mostly sunny and no precip is expected. Showers and storms arrive tomorrow.

Warm With A Few Clouds Today 

Hello everyone! 

Today will feature warm temps, slowly increasing clouds, and the low chance for a shower inland. Highs will climb into the upper 60’s to low 70’s at the coast and the upper 70’s to low 80’s inland. There is a low chance that a shower forms in the foothills though most should stay dry. Clouds will increase this afternoon but skies should remain clear in the morning hours.

A Lovely Summer Day Today

Hello everyone!

Today will feature warm temps, sunny skies, and dry conditions as high pressure slides south over the region. Highs will rise into the 70’s for most with low 80’s in the usual warm spots. Skies should remain mainly clear and no showers are expected. 

Enjoy!

Warmer Today 

Hello everyone! 

Today will feature warm temps, partly cloudy skies, and the chance for an afternoon shower. Highs will range through the 70’s region wide today with a few 80 degree readings possible in the usual warm spots. An afternoon shower or storm could pop up later in the day but they are expected to remain widely scattered and low impact. The vast majority of the area will likely remain dry.

Warm And Sunny Today 

Hello everyone! 

Today will feature clear skies, light winds, and warm temps. Highs look to climb into the 70’s for most with some low 80’s possible in the usual SW interior warm spots. Some clouds are possible along the coast this evening as a backdoor cold front arrives but aside from an occasional sprinkle here or there things should remain dry.

Warming Slightly, Still Cloudy And Breezy

Hello everyone!

Remember yesterday? Yeah that’s basically today’s weather in a nutshell except about 5 degrees warmer and a hint sunnier. Look for highs in the upper 50’s to low 60’s north and upper 60’s to low 70’s south. Skies will remain partly to mostly cloudy but a few more sunny breaks are likely today. Winds will remain busy with gusts again to 30 mph. The chance exists for a spot shower especially in the mountains as with yesterday but no significant rainfall is expected.

More Cool Temps And Gusty Winds Today

Hello everyone!

Remember yesterday? Yeah that’s basically today’s weather in a nutshell. Welcome to June, the way boring weather should(‘nt) be. Temps will once again range from 50 in the far north to 65 in the far south. NW winds will once again gust above 30 mph though yesterday’s 40 mph gusts are unlikely. Skies will once again be partly to mostly sunny with more clouds in the afternoon/evening hours. Just like yesterday, there is the slight chance for a shower here or there with the greatest threat in the mountains.

Windy And Warmer Today

Hello everyone! 

Today will feature gusty winds, clearing skies, and warm temps. Winds behind a cold front could gust over 45mph today and scattered power outages are possible as a result. Highs will rise into the upper 50’s north and low 70’s south. Skies will be brighter the closer you are to the coast.

Cool And Cloudy With Showers Today 

Hello everyone! 

An MCS (Mesoscale Comvective System) is currently over NY state this morning and moving east. This will result in showers and possibly a rumble of thunder over southern areas this morning into early this afternoon. There is the chance that a few showers could pop up this afternoon as low pressure moves east along a warm front draped to our south but the real instability and the real storms will remain south of the area. The mountains should stay mainly dry today. Winds will be much calmer but temps will still be stuck in the low to mid 60’s for all.
