Synopsis:

Happy Hanukkah!

A wave of low pressure will develop on an offshore front today. A period of rain is likely for areas South and East of the City with wet snow North and West of the City. Even in the City and some coastal areas the rain will go over to wet snow during the afternoon. A light accumulation is possible North and West by late day. Isolated amounts of 3″ are possible over the highest elevations.

Tuesday will be the calm in between systems. Abundant sunshine is expected as Canadian high pressure influences the region. It will be cold.

All of the computer models are in general agreement that a storm will affect the region for Wednesday afternoon into Thursday morning. It is quite rare for all of the models this far out to basically have the same output. For this reason the potential continues to increase that a significant snowfall will occur for most of the tri-state area. A mix is also possible at the coast and to the South. It is way too early to call for amounts, just know that if the track remains the same with the models today that a plowable snow and then some will occur. Early call thinking is 6″ to 12″. A Winter Storm Watch is in effect for Wednesday into Thursday morning for parts of NJ. These Watches will be expanded to include areas to the North and East within the next 24 hours.

Thursday morning snow will end and the sun will return.

A tranquil close the the week is expect behind the storm on Friday.

Stay Tuned.

Synopsis:

A storm over the Canadian Maritimes and high pressure over the Tennessee Valley will cause the pressure gradient to be tight today. All this means in layman terms is the wind will be busy and will add a bite as readings will be hard pressed to reach 40º. Skies will start off grey but the sun will win the battle by afternoon.

Tonight will be mainly clear with all readings below freezing. Winds will diminish.

A weak disturbance will move out of the Eastern Great Lakes and through our region on Wednesday. This will result in more clouds and possible flurries. The sun will shine more so later in the day.

By Thursday, temperatures will finally get just above average with abundant sun as a West to Southwest wind develops as high pressure moves over the Southeastern states. Hanukkah begins at sundown Thursday.

Friday also looks like a winner with readings a few degrees above the average high of 48º.

The weekend will start off mild with a mix of sun and clouds.
