Good Sunday and Happy Easter! Our big day features better weather across the Commonwealth as our pattern calms down for a while. This calm pattern will be accompanied by a mild setup that threatens to turn warm later in the week.

Let’s begin with today and roll forward. Highs hit the 60s for all those outdoor festivities on this Easter Sunday.

The temps slowly climb Monday and Tuesday with calm weather continuing. Highs reacth 70 or better by Tuesday.

Those temps then continue to climb for the middle and end of the week with readings flirting with 80 at some point. At the same time, low pressure is spinning along the Gulf of Mexico and there’s an outside chance for this to become something tropical or subtropical. Crazy, right? Well, maybe not so much nowadays.

That system can throw a few showers or storms in here by Friday with the potential for another system to work in behind it a few days later…

The models do try to bring a deepening trough into the easter

 

 

My last post focused on the longer range forecast from one of the main seasonal models, Canadian SIPS. One of the other main seasonal models is from the EURO, but this doesn’t go as deep into the year as the Canadian SIPS.

It does offer us a full look at what it thinks will happen over the summer. Just like the Canadian, the EURO Seasonal has a tame temperature summer…

It differs from the Canadian with the rainfall forecast as it shows a slightly wetter than normal summer…

I’ll take tame summer temps with slightly above normal rainfall.😎

Have a Happy Easter and take care.
