CLIFTON’S ALMANAC FOR FEBRUARY 15TH:

AVERAGE HIGH: 40 AVERAGE LOW: 24

YESTERDAY’S HIGH: 36 LOW: 15 PRECIPITATION: NONE

Another quite cold day will be with us today but with plenty of sunshine and light winds it will not feel as harsh as yesterday. High pressure will be over our area.

As the high pressure moves offshore a southwesterly flow will develop, temperatures tonight will not be nearly as cold with lows staying in the 20s. With plenty of sunshine tomorrow temperatures will be much milder.

Another dry and mild day on Monday.

The only precipitation next week should be on Tuesday and again this time it will be warm enough to just cause some rain.

After a seasonably mild Wednesday temperatures will be colder Thursday and Friday but has been the case this winter the cold air will be in and out in a hurry with milder air again expected next weekend.
