Good morning!

Skies are clear early on this Monday morning and temperatures range from the upper teens in Clifton down to the low teens further inland, winds are a little gusty out of the northwest.

CLIFTON’S ALMANAC FOR JANUARY 20TH:

AVERAGE HIGH: 36 AVERAGE LOW: 21

RECORD HIGH: 59 – 2006 RECORD LOW: -5 – 1994

YESTERDAY’S HIGH: 42 LOW: 25 PRECIPITATION: TRACE

Strong high pressure building from the upper midwest will give our area a sunny but cold day, winds will be a little gusty this morning diminishing this afternoon.

The high pressure will dominate our weather through Friday with dry conditions and slowly moderating temperatures.

Precipitation is expected over the weekend as a low pressure system moves into the area, depending on the track of the storm as there may be just enough cold air to cause some wintry precipitation especially to our north and west, although at this time it appears that most of what falls will be in the form of rain, but stay tuned.
