Dry and mild weather for the last day of 2016 and the first day of 2017!


Skies are partly cloudy early on this New Year’s Eve morning and temperatures range from around 30 in the Clifton area to the low 20s further inland, winds are light.  There may be some black ice on untreated roads and sidewalks leftover from yesterday’s snow showers.

A weak warm front will cross the area today and a southwest flow of milder air will be with us, skies will be partly sunny and highs reaching the 40s.   Tonight will be mostly cloudy and temperatures at midnight will not be that harsh at all with readings at midnight in the mid 30s.

New Year’s Day’s weather will be mild and dry with light winds.

A low pressure system will cause precipitation Monday and Tuesday mostly falling as rain but may begin as a period of freezing rain and sleet Monday morning, temperatures will be slightly above normal on Monday but well above normal on Tuesday.

A cold front will cross the area Wednesday morning followed by much colder air by late in the day.

Cold and dry weather is expected for Thursday and Friday.

The possible storm for next weekend still looks like it will be too far offshore to give us any problems but still bears watching.

Windy and cool today with some possible snow showers! Dry and cool tomorrow! Mild and dry on New Year’s Day!


We have partly cloudy skies early on this Friday morning and early morning temperatures are a bit above normal ranging from the mid 30s in the Clifton area to the upper 20s further inland, winds are from the west averaging around  10 mph.   Some areas do have some black ice due to yesterday’s rain so be careful heading out early this morning.

A strong low pressure system that gave us the rain here yesterday and the heavy snow in parts of inland New England has moved into Quebec, a strong westerly flow of seasonably cold air will be with us, some gusts may reach 35 mph, also there is a chance of some snow squalls especially further inland where a quick coating may occur.

High pressure will be in control of our weather tomorrow and on New Year’s Day and now looks like it will remain dry throughout this period, temperatures will be near normal on Saturday and above normal on New Year’s Day.

A complex low pressure system is expected to give our area rain Monday into Tuesday that may begin as snow Monday morning, tempertures will be on the mild side.

Still mild on Wednesday with a possible lingering shower followed by dry and colder weather for the end of next week.

The storm that I mentioned yesterday for next weekend may be too far out to sea to give us any significant snow but this system still bears watching.

 

THE FORECAST:

TODAY – Cloudy and windy with a chance of snow showers, high in the low 40s, wind gusts 30-35 mph possible.

TONIGHT – Partly cloudy, low in the upper 20s.

Snow this morning quickly changing to rain! Windy with possible snow showers on Friday!


Skies have become overcast early on this Thursday morning and temperatures range from the upper 20s in the Clifton area to the low 20s further inland, winds are light.

A low pressure system moving into the area today will cause snow to develop around 7-9 a.m. and mix with and then change to rain as warmer air moves in, accumulations of about 1/2 inch is possible in the Clifton area to up to 3 inches in our northern and western suburbs before the change over.  The storm will rapidly intensify near Long Island and move up to New England coast tonight and give some inland areas of New England 1-2 feet of snow.  Here the rain should end by late this afternoon and it will become windy.

Friday will be a seasonably cold day and windy with a chance of some snow showers which may accumulate well inland.

New Year’s Eve should be mainly dry with continued seasonably cold temperatures with much lighter winds, however a weak disturbance may touch off a snow or rain shower after midnight.

New Year’s Day should be a pleasant day with milder temperatures.

A complex low pressure system is expected to give us precipitation Monday and Tuesday with most of it falling as rain but some may start as snow Monday morning, Tuesday will be quite mild with highs in the 50s.

Looking further ahead it now looks like colder weather will with us toward the end of next week and a possible coastal low may give us some significant snow next weekend.
