Skies are mostly fair early on this Friday morning and temperatures have fallen to the upper teens in the Clifton area to the low teens further inland, winds are brisk out of the west.  Some black ice are on untreated roads and sidewalks so be careful heading out this morning.  Here in Clifton I recorded 8.5 inches of snow from yesterday’s storm.

Today will be a dry and cold day as high pressure builds into the area, winds will be a little gusty this morning but diminish by this afternoon.  A weak warm front approaching the area will cause increasing cloudiness tonight with a some light snow late tonight into Saturday morning, at this time accumulations will range from a dusting to an inch.

Milder on Saturday as another high pressure moves into our area, temperatures will reach the 40s.

Rain is likely on Sunday as a storm develops and moves north of the area, this storm will rapidly strengthen and cause more heavy snow for New England on Monday.  Here it will be dry on Monday but quite windy.

Seasonable temperature Tuesday through Thursday of next week, some models are indicating another storm for Wednesday but at this point most areas will stay dry.
