Will There Be Severe T-Storms Tomorrow? Find Out!

          The past several days have been filled with threats for strong to severe thunderstorms. So will tomorrow be the same kind of thing? Well it really depends on where you exactly live. If you are in Ohio or New York, you don't need to be concerned, but if you are located in Eastern PA, most of New Jersey and on the central and western part of the Del-Mar-Va, you run into some small problems. This area is where some storms could turn on the strong side, so just keep an eye on the radar tomorrow! Also keep in mind of the flash flood threat because we have has lots of rain and a little to much in some places. Here is tomorrows severe thunderstorm forecast.  Be sure to stay tuned in to Northeast Weather Action for the latest weather forecasts and updates, have a great Friday night!



Today's Severe Thunderstorms Threats - Nothing Like Yesterday

          Today there will be some isolated strong thunderstorms, but mainly more shower activity and a few embedded storms. Yesterday we had many flash flood warnings and several severe thunderstorm warnings, as well as even a few tornadoes in Pennsylvania. But that was yesterday, today is not expected to be anything close to that magnitude.

          Overall there is a low threat of strong to severe storms across the region with a moderate threat which is still not noticeable, in New Jersey and on the Del-Mar-Va. This is the area where some wind damage in storms are possible. So you don't have much to worry about when going to outdoor activities. Here is today's severe thunderstorm threats forecast, have a great day and stay tuned to Northeast Weather Action for the latest forecasts and updates on all northeast weather action!

Full Weekend Weather Forecast

          As far as weather conditions go, isolated thunderstorms with some rain showers in Northern Maine. Temperatures should be in the 70's and 80's widespread throughout the region.



Updated 7 Day Rainfall Forecast

          Overall significant rain is still expected to fall everywhere in the region. Here is the updated 7 day rainfall forecast.


Now Through Late Next Week's Rainfall Forecast : To Be Wet

       In the past few weeks, we have not had much rain across the region. In the next 7 days, several storms will give every area in the region a high chance of seeing a significant amount of rain. It's looking like the most rain will fall in Eastern Pennsylvania and Eastern New York, where around 4 - 5 total inches of rain is expected to fall in the next 7 days. In the next week, just about every other day an individual storm will arrive in the region just to soak areas that have all ready had a shower. So just how much rain are we in the northeast as a whole expecting, well here is the forecast for the next 7 day's rainfall all in one combined forecast.


Today's New Severe Thunderstorm Threats Forecast

         Today will likely be the worst day of the week when it comes in terms of strong to severe thunderstorms. There will likely be widespread thunderstorms especially in New York and Pennsylvania. The storms could pack damaging winds and very heavy downpours. Here is the updated forecast for the t-storm threats index.

Wednesday's Updated Severe Thunerstorm Index

          The threat today will be the smallest of the week overall. Isolated strong storms could be upon some areas but no real widespread severe t-storm threat is expected. But stay right here to Northeast Weather Action because it is looking like tomorrow and Friday could hold significant threats for severe thunderstorms! Here is today's updated severe thunderstorm index.

Today's Updated Severe Thunerstorm Threats Index

          Today is going to have the same general threats as yesterday, but possibly an elevated threat level in some areas. Thunderstorms today are looking to be just as widespread as yesterday packing the threats of damaging winds, small hail, and cloud to ground lightning. The chance of tornadoes today is very low. The rest of the week could hold even higher probabilities for strong to severe thunderstorms so make sure you stay right here at Northeast Weather Action for the latest forecasts and updates, as there will be many. Here is today's updated severe thunderstorms threats index. Stay safe and have a great rest of your Tuesday!

Monday - Wednesday Severe Thunderstorm Threats Forecast

          The chance is there for strong to severe thunderstorms because of the hot and humid air. These factors will provide instability in the atmosphere and flare up thunderstorms. The threat is not all that big and the thunderstorms will not be that widespread. Here is the forecast for tomorrow through Wednesday.

Tomorrow's Severe T-Storm Threats

             Tomorrow will definitely not pack the magnitude and widespread nature of strong and severe thunderstorms as today, but there will still be a decent threat of storms. The area with the highest threat of strong to severe thunderstorms tomorrow will be from central Ohio and into southern Pennsylvania, then sliding over to the Jersey Shore. Damaging winds and small hail could be imbeded in severe thunderstorms, so watch out for the threat of that. this forecast also has futurecast radars for those who love graphics! Stay safe and have a great evening!




Today’s Severe T-Storm Threats

          It's has been several days since we have had a large scale severe weather event. But today looks to end the cold streak, with a severe thunderstorm watch already prompted across southern New England and eastern New York. With severe thunderstorms firing up, today could have more of an expected severe threat because of the original thinking, while was the majority of the action in terms of severe weather was going to stay Maryland, and to the south. Here is the new map for today's severe thunderstorm threats, and read after the map to see the descriptions of each category.


Extreme Threat: There is an 80 - 99 percent chance you will see a severe thunderstorm within 30 miles.
Significant Threat: There is a 60 - 79 percent chance you will see a severe thunderstorm within 30 miles.
High Threat: There is a 40 - 59 percent percent chance you will see a severe thunderstorm within 30 miles.
Moderate Threat: There is a 20 - 39 percent percent chance you will see a severe thunderstorm within 30 miles.
Low Threat: There is a 1 - 19 percent percent chance you will see a severe thunderstorm within 30 miles.

What Happened To The Severe Weather Today?

        As yesterday, the thought was that today we were going to have one of the strongest and most intense severe weather outbreaks of the year. Everyone from the Storm Prediction Center to Northeast Weather Action predicted this. So why didn't we get severe thunderstorms? Well that is a very good question and has a few general answers. I'm sure people from Southern Pennsylvania to Northern Virginia were woken up by a line of severe thunderstorms this morning. Well that line of severe thunderstorms really robbed the atmosphere of all of the instability and shear that was predicted to be present throughout today. After that line of showers and storms passed through the region, we were socked in by clouds which completely ruined the chances of severe thunderstorm formation for today. So in general, the line this morning acted as a shield and protected the area from severe storms.

          When you look at the radar, you see intense severe thunderstorms in Virginia or off the coast. Well now you might ask, why do they have severe storms and we have nothing? Very good question once again, but yet again has answers. The reason is because those locations didn't see the squall line in which we did. This in which opened the door for severe weather and didn't close the door on instability, which we here in the Northeast, had the door closed on by. Many people are grateful for this occurrence, but for the storm chasers, no no no, not today! As always be sure to stay tuned to Northeast Weather Action for the latest updates, forecasts, and outlooks on all northeast weather action!
