Our weather by contrast could not be more opposite or nicer for tonight and right through the weekend. Other than occasional passing clouds it will be partly to mostly sunny Saturday and Sunday with highs both days in the mid to upper 70s with very low humidity.
Tonight & Saturday night will be nice and cool. In some places it will be very cool with lows in the upper 40s across some of the valley areas in Northwest New Jersey, Eastern Pennsylvania, the Hudson Valley and interior Connecticut. Monday should be another nice day before onshore winds and clouds start to come into the picture on Tuesday. There are no storms on the horizon for us, tropical or otherwise.
