Heavy rain from overnight has for the most part moved out to the east as a cold front has passed southward. This is going to be the coolest day since early June thanks to a frontal boundary to the south across Southern Pennsylvania and Southern New Jersey. North of the frontal boundary we are looking a a northeast wind and that will keep temperatures from getting out of the 60s in areas just north and northwest of NYC. Most highs will reach the lower 70s except for South Jersey and points southward where highs will reach the middle and upper 70s. We will see lots of clouds today but not much in the way of additional rainfall.

As Debby moves up the coast, it will interact with a trough moving out of the Great Lakes, eventually merging with that system's cold front. This will bring a period of heavy rain to western New England, with lesser amounts and less time in the rain heading farther east and south in New England.
