Good morning everyone!

Skies are mostly clear early on this Wednesday morning and temperatures have fallen to the lowest of the season so far with readings at 5 a.m. ranging from 28 in Clifton down to 19 at Walpack. Winds are light out of the northwest.

CLIFTON’S ALMANAC FOR NOVEMBER 24TH:

AVERAGE HIGH: 51 AVERAGE LOW: 33

RECORD HIGH: 72 – 1979 RECORD LOW: 13 – 1989

YESTERDAY’S HIGH: 42 LOW: 30 PRECIPITATION: NONE

High pressure will be over our area today with sunny skies, high temperatures will be a few degrees higher than yesterday with much less wind.

Very pleasant weather for Thanksgiving Day with partly sunny skies and highs well up into the 50s.

A strong cold front will cross our area Friday morning with showers that possibly may mix with some snow across higher elevations to our north and west. The front will be followed by clearing but it will become cooler with strong winds gusting to 35 mph or more.

The weekend looks to be dry and chilly as high pressure builds into the area.

Our first snow of the season is possible Monday morning as a weak trough will be in our area. At the present time only a low chance of light snow is expected as the trough intensifies too far offshore to give our area any significant snow.
