Spring Like Wednesday. Potential Significant Snow Thursday…

 

Synopsis:.

Rapidly changing weather conditions will occur in the next 48 hours.  A warm front will push through tonight with rising temperatures and scattered showers. Lows will be higher than the average high for the day.

On Wednesday a cool front will push offshore during the morning with a few showers. The majority of the day will be dry with the sun making an appearance from time to time. The cold air is lagging behind by about one hundred miles. For this reason Spring-like readings are expected. Highs will be around 60º.

A dramatic change will take place Wednesday night into Thursday. Cold air will rush into the region. At the same time an area of low pressure will move in from the Mid-Atlantic and off the NJ coast. The latest computer models are more robust with the storm’s strength and precipitation. A mix of rain and snow will develop late Wednesday night and turn to snow quickly by early Thursday morning. There is the potential for a plowable snow of 4″-8″+ (map above). The snow could come down heavy at times during the morning. These amounts are highly subject to change but the potential of a significant snowfall has increased. The snow will taper off mid-day to early afternoon. Please Stay Tuned.
