Synopsis:
Arctic high pressure will settle over the region today providing abundant sunshine but despite the bright conditions readings will remain below freezing. Once the high slips off the coast the return flow will bring up milder temperatures. In response to the approaching mild air clouds will increase Tuesday and a bit of spotty light snow, sleet or rain is possible during the afternoon. A January thaw is on the way for the rest of the week. Highs will be near 50º Wednesday through Friday. Say goodbye to the snow on the ground.

Tuesday:
