Sct’d AM Showers. Becoming Very Windy. Sun Returns…

 

Synopsis:

An intensifying storm will move from Eastern PA to Southern New England today. Skies will be cloudy this morning with areas of fog. Showers will return by mid to late morning. Temperatures will spike for a few hours from the City and the South and East into the 50s to near 60º as the warm sector moves North. As the storm moves away from the region very strong West winds will develop from late morning through mid afternoon. Gusts between 45-60mph are possible. The highest wind gusts look to be South and East of the City. Isolated power outages and downed trees are possible.

The sun will make an appearance this afternoon.  Readings will start off mild but temperatures will fall during the afternoon as colder air rushes in.

The weekend looks decent for February standards. Saturday will be tranquil and cool under a mix of sun and clouds. A few flurries are possible Sunday morning, otherwise skies will be partly sunny.

A weak system will move in from the West on Monday. Showers are possible. There’s just no cold air to support snow.

Tuesday will be partly sunny with above average readings.

Stay Tuned.
