Skies are cloudy early on this Monday morning and there are some flurries falling in parts of the area, temperatures range from the low 30s in the Clifton area down to the mid 20s further inland, winds are light.
A weak upper air disturbance causing the cloudy skies this morning will move offshore and we will see some sunshine this morning but another disturbance will cause an increase in clouds again by later this afternoon, temperatures will be near normal with highs in the low 40s.
A frontal system will likely give us some light snow changing to rain on Tuesday, accumulations inland may be around one inch before the changeover. A deep low pressure will then intensify to our north bringing down colder air Tuesday night with increase in winds.
Wednesday will be a very cold day with highs mostly in the 20s and with winds gusting to 35 mph will bring wind chill values down to the single digits.
Dry weather on Thursday with slowly moderating temperatures and less wind.
Another low pressure system will give us a chance of snow showers on Friday followed by a dry weekend with near seasonable temperatures.
