Skies are clear at daybreak this morning with a temperature of 60 degrees in Clifton to the 50s in most of the inland areas, humidity is quite low.
Yesterday the Clifton area only received .11″ of rain as we were in between the areas that had much more as Southeast New England recorded over 2 inches and parts of extreme Northwest New Jersey into the Hudson Valley had over an inch.
This weekend will be the 5th one in a row of very pleasant summer weather. Today will be sunny with very low humidity for July as dew points will be in the 40s, high temperatures will be seasonably warm reaching the 80s, winds will be a bit brisk due to Arthur that is moving into the Canadian Maritime area.
Sunday will again be pleasantly warm, humidity will rise only a bit with dew points still in the comfortable 50s.
Warm to hot weather early next week as we should reach the 90 degree mark by Monday, humidity will be higher but not as steamy as we experience early this week.
A slow moving cold front will cause some showers and thunderstorms on Wednesday followed by slightly cooler and drier conditions for the end of the week.
