For the first time this month, favorable migration weather patterns are setting up for the NYC region and perhaps beyond. In checking the local forecast on Accuweather, it is predicted that winds will shift SW this afternoon and remain generally light and steady SW through tonight and at least until 1am Saturday morning, when there may be a shift to SSE to SE. there is cloud cover forecasted for certain periods with some isolated thunderstorms. Depending on when those t-storms hit, it could make things even more interesting, but don't let me be too optimistic ! So it looks like Friday and maybe Saturday could be the day(s) we've all been waiting for. But of course, this forecast could change in the next hour. so keep your fingers crossed and bins at the ready !
