I’m basically the one man band here at NY NJ PA Weather. Web design and all. Here is a little about me. I grew up in Freehold, New Jersey. I guess you can say I’ve always had the “bug” for the weather. As I grew older, I became focused on forecasting, especially winter weather forecasting. That’s my specialty to be honest. I love a good snowstorm. After graduating from Freehold Borough High School (were I spent 3 1/2 years as the school’s first and only official meteorologist), I went

Over the past several days, I have been tracking the approach of then hurricane Ida, which was entrained into a Sub Tropical disturbance and is now phasing with a Polar disturbance over the Mid Atlantic coast.
