CLOUD COVER

The cloudiness this morning had been predicted last night.

Cloudiness should dissipate from west to east.

Last night’s 2 AM (06 UTC) run of the major models show varying times for the cloudiness to break for sunshine.   Most of the short range models (RAP, HRRR) have sunshine by 10AM-12 noon.

However, NAM, NAM-NEST and the GFS are a bit slower with the cloud clearing, having some cloudiness lingering until 1-2 PM here in the Philadelphia area.

GFS percentage cloud cover forecast 1 PM Saturday.   (Click on image for a larger view.)
