And we do indeed continue on storm watch we mentioned for the past couple of days, this will be a long duration storm and yes, our nor'easter will continue with probably the worst weather coming during the overnight period in early Sunday morning.
Waves of heavy rain coming in strong winds and high tides continue to be a problem. However, I think the success of high tides, maybe three to four more high tide cycles will not be quite as high as Saturday morning's high tide.
I think you're maybe about a foot less, so some good news there, but we still have to be very vigilant because the high tides will still be way higher than they should be.
Sunday, we're looking at windy conditions with some more rain Monday and Tuesday, gradual improvement.
I think by Tuesday, we could all put this behind us. Heavy rain and wind coming through during the overnight period, wind gusts to 44 miles per hour.
Now watch what happens though during the morning time, we have a bit of a break around lunchtime with wind still pretty strong, but then another wave comes in for Sunday night with more heavy rain and winds not quite as strong.
Heading into Monday as we wake up and head back to work, still have some rain around, still have some gusty winds around.
But watch, you can see the twist by Brooklyn, that's the area of low pressure spinning up and heading out.
And finally, by Tuesday, lighter winds and probably some sunshine breaking through.
So we dry it out after the storm is over, high rain chances the next two days, but then we really dry out as we head into Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday.
And the temperatures will respond nicely with highs getting back up to where they should be, or maybe even a couple of degrees higher.
Overnight, rain likely, heavier times, strong gusty winds, that will be the story.
For Sunday, not quite as windy, not quite as rainy, but still certainly a day we will not really want to be outside.
And then our extended forecast, lingering showers on Monday, drying out on Tuesday.
And then the best is coming mid to late week with high temperatures Wednesday, Thursday and Friday up into the 70s with partly sunny skies.
Again, we have another 36 hours to get through with the storm, then things will finally improve Monday and Tuesday.
