Synopsis:

A January thaw is upon us as our flow will continue out of the Southwest through today. It will be April-like with readings some twenty degrees above average. Clouds will dominate and passing sprinkles are in the forecast as the atmosphere is moisture laden. A cool front will swing through early Friday morning and bring our readings down at least ten degrees from today’s highs (still temps will be well above average).

Colder weather will return this weekend.. A strong, cold high will be to our North as a stationary front throws moisture to the North.  All the models have gone significantly lighter with the precipitation field. At this time flurries or snow showers are possibility later Saturday and Saturday Night. This will not be a big deal.

Today:

More clouds than sun. A sprinkle is possible. Spring-like. Highs in the upper 50s, 60s over Central and Southern NJ. Breezy. Southwest wind at 15-25mph.

Tonight:

A passing shower, otherwise mostly cloudy. Lows will be in the mid 40s in the City, the 30s inland. Southwest winds will become Northwest late and increase to 10-20mph with higher gusts.

Friday:

Partly sunny. The thaw continues. Highs in the mid to upper 40s.  The average high for this time of the year is 38º.

Saturday:

Sun will give way to increasing clouds. Colder. Highs in the mid 30s. Chance of flurries or snow showers later in the afternoon and at night.

Sunday:

Mostly sunny and seasonal with readings in the upper 30s.

Monday:

Partly sunny with highs around 40º.

Stay Tuned.

Synopsis:

A January thaw is upon us as our flow will continue out of the Southwest through the end of the week. Say goodbye to the snow on the ground.  Temperatures today will be well above average.  A more significant warm front will move into the area tonight with a period of rain.  Thursday will be April-like with readings some twenty degrees above average.

Looking down the pike, our next shot of wintry weather comes late Saturday afternoon and Saturday night. A strong, cold high will be to our North as a stationary front throws moisture to the North. The potential is there for Light snow.  The question is-how much moisture will work into the immediate tri-state area?  As of this writing the computer models are not robust at all with precip amounts-meaning not a significant snowfall. Possibly just some flurries. Stay tuned.

Today:

Partly sunny and mild.  Highs in the lower 50s. Southwest winds at 10-15mph.

Tonight:

Rain developing by late evening. Mild. Steady to slowly rising temperatures. Lows will be in the 40s to lower 50s. Southeast to Southwest winds at 10-15mph.

Thursday:

More clouds than sun. A sprinkle is possible. Spring-like. Highs in the upper 50s.

Friday:

Partly sunny. The thaw continues. Highs in the upper 40s.  The average high for this time of the year is 38º.

Saturday:

Sun will give way to increasing clouds. Colder. Highs in the mid 30s. Chance of light snow or flurries later in the afternoon and at night.

Sunday:

Partly sunny and seasonal with readings in the upper 30s.

Synopsis:

The high pressure system that gave us our bitter blast will slip off the coast today . The return flow will bring up milder temperatures. In response to the approaching mild air clouds will increase today and a bit of spotty light snow, sleet or rain is possible during the afternoon (this won’t be a big deal, map above). A period of rain is expected tonight. A January thaw is on the way as our flow will continue out of the Southwest through the end of the week. Say goodbye to the snow on the ground.

Looking down the pike, our next shot of wintry weather comes Saturday night and Sunday morning. A strong, cold high will be to our North and a warm front pushes in from the South. The potential is there for snow or a mix at night into Sunday morning. Stay tuned.

Today:

Mostly cloudy, not as harsh. Spotty light snow, sleet or rain is possible in the afternoon mainly over the Northern half of the area. This won’t be a big deal (if it occurs at all).  Highs in the 30s to around 40º. South wind at 5-10mph.

Tonight:

Steadier rain will develop. Which may begin as a mix well inland. Steady to slowly rising temperatures. Lows will be in the 30s to around 40º. Southwest winds at 5mph.

Wednesday:

Partly sunny & mild. Highs in the lower 50s.

Thursday:

Partly sunny continued mild. Highs in the mid 50s.

Friday:

Partly sunny as the thaw continues. Highs in the lower 50s.

Saturday:

Increasing clouds. Colder. Highs in the mid 30s. Chance of snow or a mix at night.

Stay Tuned.

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.

Today:

Sunny. Cold.  Highs in the upper 20s. Northwest winds will become Southwest at 5-10mph.

Tonight:

Partly cloudy. Steady temperatures. Lows will be in the mid 20s in the City, the teens inland. Southwest winds at 5mph.

Tuesday:

Mostly cloudy, not as harsh. Spotty light snow, sleet or rain is possible in the afternoon mainly over the Northern half of the area. This won’t be a big deal (if it occurs at all).  Highs in the 30s to around 40º.

Wednesday:

Morning showers, afternoon sun. Mild. Highs around 50º.

Thursday:

Partly sunny continued mild. Highs in the lower 50s.

Friday:

Partly sunny as the thaw continues. Highs in the lower 50s.

Synopsis:

The second punch this weekend will be the bitter blast.  Despite plenty of sunshine temperatures today will remain well below freezing.

Synopsis:

The storm that dropped anywhere from 10″ of snow in spots over Eastern Long Island to just a trace over the Northwestern counties will continue to pull away overnight.  Snow, heavy at times over Eastern Long Island will come to an end by late evening.  A frigid airmass will move in.  Sunday will be the coldest day of the season so far.  Wind chills will be harsh.

Synopsis:

Periods of snow of varyring intensity will fall into the afternoon. There will be a sharp cutoff to the snow to the West.  The map above is the possible accumulations expected by evening.  The Western sections of each band will feature the lower amount within the range.  If the storm jogs a bit to the West areas farther inland will see more snow.  At this time Coastal NJ and Eastern Long Island will be in the jackpot zone for the highest amounts (snow amounts above).  Well inland a bit of dim sunshine is possible with high clouds.  The snow will end from Southwest to Northeast during the late afternoon and evening.  Snow will most likely quit over Eastern sections by late evening.

The cold blast is the other top story for the weekend.  Highs will be below freezing both days with lows in the teens.

Saturday:

Snow likely from I-95 corridor and to the East, mostly cloudy well inland. Highs in the mid 20s. North wind at 10-20mph.

Tonight:

Snow ends East, becoming mostly clear and frigid. Lows in the upper teens in the City, near 10º North and West wind chills near 0º. Northwest winds at 10-20mph.

Synopsis:

A bit of snow is expected to develop later this evening over the Western ‘burbs and around Midnight around the City and East as a weak low pressure system moves up and off the coast. This will not be a significant snow. Most areas will receive a coating to two inches. Isolated 3″ amounts are possible over Central NJ. The snow will end by sunrise for most. Eastern Long Island the flakes will quite by mid morning. The sun will return soon after with slightly below average temperatures.

Now, to the snow threat for coastal and Eastern areas on Saturday. The latest computer models have nudge the snow shield Northwest with the developing offshore storm. It’s a not a huge jog, but enough of a concern to include the potential of some snow for Coastal areas, possibly the City, and especially Long Island.  Could a few inches fall out East. It’s a possibility, not a certainty. There a still a some time to fine tune this forecast. Just be aware of the potential. Farther inland skies clouds and some sun is expected.

The cold blast is the other top story for the weekend.  Highs will be below freezing both days with lows in the teens.

Tonight:

Light snow will develop between 9pm and midnight. Lows in the upper 20s in the City, near 20º inland. West wind at 5mph.  A light accumulation of a coating to two inches is expected by sunrise (snow map above).

Friday:

Early morning flakes east, otherwise becoming partly sunny. Highs in the mid 30s. Northwest wind at 8-12mph.

Saturday:

Mostly cloudy.  A threat of some snow for the coast and Eastern areas.  Highs in the mid 20s.

Sunday:

Mostly sunny and cold.  Highs in the mid to upper 20s.

Monday:

Sunny. Cold.  Highs in the upper 20s.

Synopsis:

January has made it’s presence known. Temperatures today will be much colder than recent days. Highs will be near seasonal averages.  Sun will give way to clouds as high pressure moves offshore.

A bit of snow is expected to develop later this evening and into early Friday morning as a weak low pressure system moves up and off the coast. This will not be a significant snow. Most areas will receive a coating to two inches. The snow will end during the early morning commute.

A cold blast will move in for the weekend.  Temperatures will remain below freezing.  Another low will develop off the Carolina’s and move up and off the coast, sparing our region of any snow.  The cold will be the top story.

Today:

Sun to clouds, colder. Highs in the mid 30s.  Diminishing West wind at 10-15mph.

Tonight:

Light snow will develop between 9pm and midnight. Lows in the upper 20s in the City, near 20º inland. West wind at 5mph.  A light accumulation of a coating to two inches is expected by sunrise (snow map above).

Synopsis:

The low and cold front that caused the wet weather has moved off the coast. Any clouds will give way to sunshine. The cold air is displaced 200 miles West of the front. For this reason temperatures will very mild today. Winds will increase dramatically during the afternoon and much colder readings will be with us by tonight.

January will make it’s presence known by Thursday as temperatures will be near average. There is a chance of a bit of light snow or snow showers Friday morning. It doesn’t look to be a big deal as the sun will soon return. The cold temperatures will be the main story. Another low will move up and off the coast over the weekend. At this time it looks to remain offshore. None of the computer models have the storm affecting the area significantly at this time. Stay tuned.

Today:

Sun and clouds, mild. Highs around 50º. Becoming windy in the afternoon. West wind increasing to 15-25mph with higher gusts.

Tonight:

Clear to partly cloudy. Much colder. Lows in the mid to upper 20s in the City, near 20º inland. West wind at 15-25mph.

Thursday:

Partly sunny and much colder. Highs in the mid 30s.

Friday:

Mostly cloudy with a chance of snow showers in the morning, otherwise becoming partly sunny.  Highs around freezing.

Saturday:

Partly sunny and cold.  Highs around 30º.  Eyes will be on a offshore storm.

Sunday:

Partly sunny and cold.  Highs in the upper 20s to around 30º.
