Synopsis:

High pressure will move over the region today.  This will result in diminishing winds and sunshine that will give way to high clouds.  It will be very cold with readings not getting above freezing.

Our next precipitation maker will be late tonight and into the weekend.  Frigid high pressure will be moving off the coast at the same time plenty of moisture will be working in from the South and West.  The cold air will be hard to dislodge.  Light snow should break out late tonight and continue into Saturday morning.  Amazingly, the warm air will win the battle and the snow will change to rain along the coast and eventually inland as a warm front moves into the region.  There could be a prolonged period of ice North and West of the City Saturday. Snow accumulations are expected mainly North and West of the City where several inches may fall before the changeover.  The latest computer guidance suggest a weaker punch of snow and a slightly warmer atmosphere.  This development has lower snow amounts for the region Saturday morning (map above).

The second punch will be an approaching cold front on Sunday.  A wild temperature swing will occur this weekend.  It’ll be the the tale of two seasons with Winter-like conditions Saturday morning-cold and some snow to Spring-like conditions Sunday morning- temperatures rise well into the 50s ahead of the front!  Rain and windy conditions are expected Sunday. The arctic front will move in during the afternoon and temperatures will again plummet.  Hang on!

Today:

Bitterly cold under mostly sunny skies (high clouds will work in during the afternoon).  Highs in the mid 20s.  Thankfully the wind will diminish . Northwest to Southwest wind at 8-12mph.

Tonight:

Thickening clouds with light snow developing after midnight. Temperatures will actually rise through the 20s to near freezing by morning along the coast. Inland,  readings will rise through the teens and 20s. Southwest wind at 5mph.

Saturday:

Snow early, changing to rain along the coast. An accumulation is possible before the changeover. A period of freezing rain is possible inland before the changeover.  Temperatures will rise into the 40s by late day in the City to near 40º inland.

Sunday:

Cloudy, windy and warm with periods of rain.  Highs well into the 50s during the morning. Temperatures will fall into the 30s and 40s during the afternoon.

Monday:

Partly sunny and very cold once again.  Highs only near 30º.

Tuesday:

Sunny and not as harsh.  Highs in the mid to upper 3os.

Stay Tuned.

Synopsis:

The Arctic Express has arrived and will be accompanied by the coldest air of the season so far.  This cold will be dangerous. Wind chills will be in the teens along the coast to near 0º well inland Thursday (map above). Below zero wind chills are expected Thursday Night.  Scattered snow showers and snow squalls are possible just about anytime into tonight.  Any one of these squalls can drop a coating of snow in a very short period of time. Wind Advisories and High Wind Warnings have been posted for wind gust of  50mph-60mph later today and tonight.

Our next precipitation maker will be Friday Night into the weekend.  Frigid high pressure will be moving off the coast at the same time plenty of moisture will be working in from the South and West.  The cold air will be hard to dislodge.  Snow should break out Friday night and continue into Saturday morning.  Amazingly, the warm air will win the battle and the snow will change to rain along the coast and eventually inland.  There could be a prolonged period of ice North and West of the City Saturday. Snow accumulations are expected mainly North and West of the City where several inches may fall before the changeover.

A wild temperature swing will occur this weekend.  It’ll be the the tale of two seasons with Winter-like conditions Saturday morning-cold and some snow to Spring-like conditions Sunday morning- temperatures rise well into the 50s!  Another Arctic front will swing through Sunday afternoon. Temperatures will again plummet.  Hang on!

Synopsis:

A cool front will approach the region by mid-day and bring an end to the rain and freezing rain by late morning or early afternoon. Icy conditions will be experienced well North and West this morning.  Please use caution. Skies will break for some sun this afternoon.  It’ll be mild with readings in the 40s to around 50º at the coast.

High pressure will build in from the Midwest for Tuesday with more tranquil conditions.  The Arctic Express will arrive for Late week accompanied by the coldest air of the season so far.  This cold will be dangerous. Wind chills will be below zero Thursday Night and Friday. Snow lovers, the pattern unfortunately doesn’t favor East Coast cyclogenesis at this time.

Today:

Mix, freezing rain or rain inland (depending on your location) in the morning. Rain at the coast. The precipitation will taper within a few hours of mid-day. Late day sun is possible. Highs in the 40s to around 50º at the coast. Southwest to West wind at 10-20mph.

Synopsis:

Scattered areas of light snow is expected this afternoon and evening as a system develops to our West. This initial area of snow could leave a coating in spots by the evening hours. Snow Lovers, unless you live well North and West of the City this will be a dud. The primary low over the Ohio valley will be remain the dominate feature.  This will result in a warmer atmosphere for our area. High pressure in Quebec will supply the cold air, but the high will lose its influence over the coastal plain. The snow will change to rain at the coast and farther to the South during later Sunday night and Monday morning.  A minor accumulation is possible here before the changeover.  Inland the cold air will be stubborn to erode. This will result in higher snow amounts with a change to freezing rain and or rain for some areas. The possible snow amounts are above. This will not be a significant wintry event, but it will remain active with several shots of Arctic air heading into Christmas.

This Afternoon & Evening:

Areas of light snow, especially North of a Trenton, NYC line. A dusting to a coating is possible by evening. Temperatures will be in the mid to upper 30s. Northwest wind will become South at 5mph.

Tonight:

Snow will go over to a mix of freezing rain and sleet inland.  Along the coast the snow will go over to rain.  There maybe a lull in the precipitation during the evening with steadier precipitation moving in toward midnight.  Rising temperatures overnight-rising through the 30s and to near 40º at the coast by morning. Inland temperatures will rise through the 20s to near freezing by sunrise.  South wind at 5-10mph.

Monday:

Mix, freezing rain or rain inland (depending on your location) in the morning. Rain at the coast. The precipitation will taper within a few hours of mid-day. Late day sun is possible. Highs in the 40s to around 50º at the coast.

Tuesday:

Partly sunny. Highs in the mid 40s.

Wednesday:

Partly sunny. Highs in the mid 40s.

Thursday:

The Arctic Express arrives..  Partly sunny, windy and very cold.  Highs in the upper 20s to around 30º.

Synopsis:

A significant season changing airmass has moved into the area. Plummeting temperatures and gusty winds are anticipated into Saturday under a mix of sun and clouds as a cold pool of air works in from Canada.   Temperatures will remain in the 30 through the weekend. The winds will abate on Sunday making for a somewhat more comfortable day.  Clouds will thickening and snow showers are likely later in the afternoon as a system develops to our West.

Snow Lovers may have something to cheer about especially if you live North and West of the City. The latest European model TAKEN VERBATIM (2nd map above) shows a hit of snow Sunday night into Monday morning.  There has been a notable change with the latest computer guidance.  The primary low over the Ohio valley will NOW remain the dominate feature.  This will result in a slightly warmer atmosphere for our area.  Yes, high pressure in Quebec will supply the cold air, but the high will lose its influence over the coastal plain. The snow will change to rain at the coast and farther to the South during Monday morning.  A minor accumulation is possible here before the changeover.  Inland the cold air will be stubborn to erode. This will result in higher snow amounts with a change to freezing rain and or rain for some areas.  Stay tuned.

Today:

Partly cloudy, breezy and much colder than recent days. Highs in the upper 30s. Northwest winds at 15-25mph with gusts to 30mph. Wind chills will be in the upper 20s and 30s.

Tonight:

Partly cloudy, colder. Lows in the upper 20s in the City, near 20º inland. Northwest winds at 15-25mph and diminishing.

Saturday:

Partly cloudy, breezy and cold. Highs in the mid to upper 30s.

Sunday:

Any morning sun will give way to thickening clouds. Snow showers are possible during the afternoon. Highs in the mid to upper 30s.

Monday:

Snow and freezing rain inland. Rain at the coast. Highs in the upper 30s, closer to freezing North and West.

Tuesday:

Partly sunny. Highs in the mid 40s.

Stay Tuned.

Synopsis:

A significant season changing airmass will move into the area by Friday. A cold front will move trough the region and keep our temperatures in the 30s.  Plummeting temperatures and gusty winds are anticipated into Saturday under a mix of sun and clouds.   Sunday will be more tranquil as the winds abate.

Snow Lovers may have something to cheer about. The latest European model TAKEN VERBATIM (2nd map above) shows a hit of snow Sunday night into Monday morning.  The primary low over the Ohio valley will weaken as a secondary low tries to take shape off the NJ coast. This will supply the moisture. High pressure will be in Quebec supplying the cold air. Will the warm air to the South win out or will the cold air be locked in so much of the time the precipitation will be snow?  The snow has a good chance of mixing with or changing to rain at the coast and farther to the South during the day on Monday. The event is still 3-4 days away. No way is this etched in stone. Just want you to be aware of the potential. Stay tuned.

Tonight:

Mostly clear, colder. Lows around 30º in the City, the 20s inland. Northwest winds at 15-25mph.

Friday:

Partly cloudy, breezy and much colder than recent days. Highs in the upper 30s. Northwest winds at 15-25mph.

Saturday:

Partly cloudy, breezy and cold. Highs in the mid to upper 30s.

Sunday:

Morning sun, afternoon clouds. Highs around 40º.

Monday:

A chance of snow early with rain or a mix likely at the coast. Highs in the upper 30s.

Tuesday:

Partly sunny. Highs in the mid 40s.

Stay Tuned.

Synopsis:

A significant season changing airmass will move into the area by Friday.  There will actually be two cold fronts that will bring down the Winter-like chill.  One cold front will pass the area on today, the second on Friday. The map above shows  the Arcitc air invading the Northern Plains tomorrow. Now, our temperatures won’t be nearly as cold but plummeting temperatures and gusty winds are anticipated Friday and Saturday.  I’m keeping any eye on several pieces to the puzzle for Monday into Tuesday.  A snow/mix threat is on the table. The potential has increased for snow, especially for interior.  Stay tuned.

Today:

Partly sunny and becoming breezy by afternoon. Highs in the mid 40s. West wind increasing to 15-25mph.

Tonight:

Mostly clear, colder. Lows around 30º in the City, the 20s inland. Northwest winds at 15-25mph.

Friday:

Partly cloudy, breezy and much colder than recent days. Highs in the upper 30s.

Saturday:

Partly cloudy, breezy and cold. Highs in the mid 30s.

Sunday:

Morning sun, afternoon clouds. Highs around 40º.

Monday:

A chance of rain and or wet snow. Highs around 40º.
