SUNDAY JANUARY 14, 2018 5:45 A.M.
The area has mostly clear skies early on this Sunday morning and temperatures are quite cold ranging from the low teens in the Clifton area down to some single digits above zero further inland, winds are gusty out of the northwest.
Today we will enjoy plenty of sunshine but it will be very cold again today but with a little less wind than on Saturday, highs will be in the upper 20s. Arctic high pressure over the upper midwest will dominate our weather.
Another very cold day on Monday as the Arctic high will move eastward to near Maine, however the winds will be lighter.
A weak disturbance on Tuesday may give us some snow showers but with slightly milder air moving in the snow may mix with rain in the afternoon, little or no accumulation is expected.
Another disturbance will give us a chance of snow once again on Wednesday but at this time it appears that the low pressure will be weak and further offshore, still something to watch.
Thursday will be quite cold and dry.
Milder Friday through the weekend and we should remain dry.
Looking ahead for what is worth indicates that above normal temperatures will be with us the last part of this month into early February.
