Interestingly, the surface winds dominated last night’s non-migration. While winds at 800mb were out of the northwest, those at the surface were strong and out of the east/southeast. Last night’s radar showed no migration over New Jersey, nor over the northeast as a whole. Monday night looks like the next possible migration event, with winds forecast out of the North.

Thanks for the post. That sounded like a fun day, and it really helps having field reports posted alongside the radar as a level of groudtruthing.
Cheers
