.WHAT HAS CHANGED... The Severe Thunderstorm Watch for the southern portions of our areas has now been cancelled.

.KEY MESSAGES... 1. Low pressure moving by just to our south will continue to bring some showers and storms to the area through this afternoon before these move offshore early this evening.

2. Another cold front is expected to approach the region late this week, bringing more chances for showers and storms. This will last at least into the first part of the weekend.

KEY MESSAGE 1...Low pressure moving by just to our south will continue to bring some showers and storms to the area through this afternoon before these move offshore early this evening.

As of late afternoon, the severe thunderstorm watch has now been cancelled. While some heavier showers and an occasional rumble of thunder may still be possible, the severe threat has now diminished.

Heading into this evening, the system will be quickly departing so showers/storms and any lingering severe threat will come to an end by 8 PM. The remainder of the night will be tranquil.

KEY MESSAGE 2...Another cold front is expected to approach the region late this week, bringing more chances for showers and storms. This will last at least into the first part of the weekend.

Another cold front is expected to approach our region late in the week bringing the potential for showers/storms as early as very late day Thursday into Thursday night. Deep layer shear will be fairly strong but the forcing does not look to be terribly strong and could also be centered more north of our area. This could limit the severe weather potential. This is still a few days away though and things could change.

At this point it is likely that the aformentioned front with its associated showers and potential storms is likely to linger into Saturday keeping at least the first part of the weekend on the unsettled side. Precipitation chances diminish by Sunday into early next week.

Marine
Some showers/storms will be affecting the waters for the rest of this afternoon into this evening and could produce locally strong winds over 34 knots. Outside of this convection wind gusts should remain below Small Craft Advisory levels. Showers/storms move east of our waters overnight with relatively tranquil conditions over the waters to follow through Wednesday.

Outlook... Wednesday through Sunday...Sub SCA (Small Craft Advisory) conditions.

Rip Currents... Today, winds will be out of the south to southwest around 10 mph, turning to the north to northeast at 10 to 15 mph with gusts up to 20 mph in the afternoon. Breaking waves will be 1 to 3 feet with a light southeasterly swell with a period around 6 seconds. As a result, there is a LOW risk for the development of dangerous and life threatening rip currents for the Jersey Shore and Delaware Beaches.

On Wednesday, winds will be northwest in the morning, turning southwest around 10 mph in the afternoon. Breaking waves will be 1 to 2 feet with a light southeast swell with a period around 7 seconds. As a result, there is a LOW risk for the development of dangerous and life threatening rip currents for the Jersey Shore and Delaware Beaches.
