Synopsis:

Tonight will be the coldest night of the season so far as Arctic high pressure moves in from the North. Wind chills in most regions morning will be below zero. Well to the North Wind chills will be between -10 to -20º (1st map above).

Please dress in layers during this bitter blast. The layers tend to deaden the air in between and in turn keep your body warm.

Frigid air will continue to funnel in on Friday.  Mainly sunny skies are expected with a biting wind.

On Saturday the winds will have abated some as the cold high settles over the region. Abundant sunshine is expected with readings remaining below freezing.

By Sunday, all eyes will turn to a developing system to our South. Sun should give way to increasing afternoon clouds. I am continuing to keep Sunday afternoon snow-free.

The potential has increased for snow Monday and Tuesday. It all depends on the track a storm that will be developing off the Mid-Atlantic coast and where the heavy axis of snow sets utp. Could this be a classic snowstorm, yes, if all of the ingredients come together. Remember this is a potential and not a certainty. Some rain is also a possible over Southern sections. The threat is there for this system to be of long duration and contain high winds. We’ll fine tune the forecast and give more details as time goes on.

Stay Tuned.

Tonight:

Clear, frigid and windy. Lows in the mid teens in the City, near 10º inland. Northwest winds at 15-30mph. Wind chills near 0º or below.

Synopsis:

Early clouds will give way to some sun today as systems remain weak over the Northeast.

A strengthening storm will move off the Carolina coast Thursday. This will result in increasingly strong winds under a mix of sun and clouds. Readings will remain just above freezing. It will be harsh out by the afternoon.

Arctic high pressure will funnel in the coldest air of the season so far on Friday. Mainly sunny skies are expected with a biting wind.

On Saturday the winds will have abated some as the cold high settles over the region. Abundant sunshine is expected with readings remaining below freezing.

By Sunday, all eyes will turn to a developing system to our South. Sun should give way to increasing afternoon clouds. I am keeping Sunday afternoon snow-free at this time. You will be hearing a lot of chatter about a possible storm into Monday. Take anyone’s forecast that far out with a grain of salt. You know my motto: Keep it here for a no nonsense, no hype forecast.

Synopsis:

A low to our South will move toward the region today. It’ll throw on and off light snow or snow showers our way starting later this morning. On and off light sleet, freezing rain mixed with the snow will likely occur in the NYC vicinity and to the South. Central and Southern NJ will mainly experience rain. This system will basically fall apart over the region so significant snow will not occur. A coating to 2″ of snow is likely in areas where snow is the predominate type of precipitation (Well North of NYC). A icy glaze and a light coating of snow will accumulate in the mix zone. No accumulation is expected over Southern areas. The map above depicts the precipitation type during the mid afternoon.

On and off light snow, mix and light rain will continue tonight.

Early morning showers of mixed precipitation and snow showers will give way to some sun as the weak system pulls off our coast on Wednesday.

A strengthening storm will move off the Carolina coast Thursday. This will result in increasingly strong winds under a mix of sun and clouds. Readings will remain just above freezing.

Arctic high pressure will funnel in the coldest air of the season so far on Friday. Mainly sunny skies are expected with a biting wind.

Tonight:

Occasional light mixed precipitation. Light rain to the South. Lows in the lower to mid 30s in the City, 20s inland. Northeast winds at 5mph.

Synopsis:

Low pressure over the Central Appalachians today will begin to move toward the region. Sunshine will give way to late afternoon clouds. Clouds will thicken tonight but it will remain dry.

As the low moves just to our South it will throw on and off light snow or snow showers our way for Tuesday. On and off light sleet, freezing rain mixed with the snow will likely occur in the NYC vicinity and to the South. Central and Southern NJ will mainly experience rain.. This system will basically fall apart over the region so a big snow will not happen. A coating of snow is likely in areas where snow is the predominate type of precipitation. No accumulation is expected over Southern areas.

Early morning showers of mixed precipitation and snow showers will give way to some sun as the weak system pulls off our coast on Wednesday.

All eyes then turn to a developing Carolina storm on Wednesday night and Thursday. The computer models are in good agreement that this storm will intensify rapidly and move off the Virginia coast and not up the coast, sparing the region of snow. It will be windy and cold as the storm cranks offshore Thursday. A mix of sun and clouds is expected.

Behind the Atlantic storm, Arctic high pressure will funnel in the coldest air of the season so far on Friday. Mainly sunny skies are expected with a biting wind.

Synopsis:

Canadian high pressure will settle over the region today resulting in abundant sunshine. Readings will struggle to crack the freezing mark. Thankfully, the winds will have abated some.

Low pressure will be over the Central Appalachians on Monday. Morning sun will give way to afternoon clouds. As the low moves just to our South it will throw light snow or snow showers our way for Tuesday. This system will basically fall apart over the region so a big snow will not happen. A coating of snow is the thinking.

Residual mositure Wednesday morning may result in a few snow showers, otherwise skies will be mostly cloudy.

All eyes then turn to a developing Carolina storm. The computer models are in good agreement that this storm will intensify rapidly and move off the Virginia coast and not up the coast, sparing most of the region of snow. This is not totally etched in stone, but confidence is fairly high being this far out in time (which is rare).  It will be windy and cold as the storm cranks offshore under mostly cloudy skies. A period of light snow is possible for Southern areas.

Synopsis:

Strong high pressure over Canada will influence our weather this weekend. Sunny skies are expected with below average temperatures. Today, the wind will add a bite. Sunday will be more tranquil.

Low pressure will be over the Central Appalachians on Monday. Any sun will give way to increasing and thickening clouds. As the low moves just to our South it will throw light snow our way Monday Night. The low will weaken and move offshore on Tuesday. Light snow is likely for the majority of Tuesday. An accumulation is likely but this does not look like a major snowfall at this time. The early thinking is possibly a coating to a few inches.

The sun will return Wednesday as a cold Northerly flow continues.

The next system looks to pass well to our South Thursday.
