Area Forecast (July 20 to July 26)

This forecast is valid for Union, NJ

I'm back at Kean University, for my summer research, that's why the forecast will be for Union, NJ and the surrounding area. Hope you all enjoyed your weekend of sunshine and pleasant weather conditions because this week looks to be very rainy. For today we can expect mostly cloudy skies with a high near 80. For tonight, that high pressure which has been over us, giving us this dry weather, will be moving off shore as there is a possibility for showers before midnight. With that high pressure moving offshore, a warm front from the south will move in, though we won't be feeling the effects of the warm front until Wednesday. A deep upper level low will move in along the East coast for Tuesday as we can expect showers throughout the day. The temperature will be slightly cooler with a high near 73. For Tuesday night, expect a possible thunderstorm before midnight with heavy rain, patches of fog and a low near 64. Another wave of low pressure will move into the region for Wednesday as it looks to bring another chance for rain after 3 pm, and the temperature will rebound. Expect a high near 85 and mostly cloudy skies. For the rest of the week, expect more unsettled weather, with a chance of showers possible and a high temperature in the mid 80s for each day.
