Good morning!    Our area has mostly clear skies early this morning and temperatures range from the upper 20s in the Clifton area down to the lower 20s further inland, winds are from the west.

Today we will have mostly sunny skies this morning but with more clouds this afternoon, temperatures will be seasonably cold and there will be a brisk westerly wind to make it feel colder.

Mostly sunny with continued seasonably cold temperatures on Sunday but with less wind than today.

Still watching out for a coastal storm that is expected to develop on Monday and move up the coast, at this time most computer models have the storm well out to sea with little or no effects to our area but the system still bears watching in case later runs of the models have it coming closer to the coast.

Mainly dry weather the rest of the week, temperatures should be below normal Wednesday and Thursday with a warming trend starting on Friday.

Good morning everyone!   Skies are mostly cloudy early this morning and temperatures range from the upper 20s in the Clifton area down to the low 20s further inland, there is a light westerly wind.

Today we should see variable amounts of clouds. It will become breezy as low pressure moves further off the coast and high pressure builds from the west, there is an outside chance of a flurry especially inland.

Dry weather with seasonably cool weather over the weekend as high pressure builds closer to the area.

Another coastal low is possible on Monday, the models are still all over the place with  this storm, with the GFS continuing to show a path closer to the coast which would give our area a few inches of snow, while the European model still has the storm well offshore with minimal affects to our area.

Dry weather for the rest of the week with continued below normal temperatures.

Good morning!   Skies have become mostly clear early this morning and temperatures have fallen to the upper 20s in the Clifton area down to the lower 20s further inland, winds are light out of the northwest.   Yesterday in Clifton I recorded 14 inches of snow, much higher amounts just to our west and much lower amounts were recorded just to our east.

High pressure building in will give us a mostly sunny day today with seasonably cold tempertures with most highs in the lower 40s.

Seasonably cold weather with dry conditions Friday though the weekend.  We should have some melting during the daytime but overnight temperatures will dip to below freezing causing refreezing on untreated surfaces.

Another possible coastal storm on Monday.  At this time the GFS has the storm close enough to the coast to give us accumulating snow while the European model has the system well offshore with limited affects to our area.  So again stay tuned.

Good snowy morning!    Light snow is falling across the area and temperatures range from the low 30s here in Clifton to the upper 20s further inland, winds are light.   At 5:30 a.m. about an inch of snow has accumulated mostly on colder surfaces.

The coastal storm is expected to move from the Delmarva coast to just south of Long Island by this evening, snow from this system will become heavy by mid morning and continue through the afternoon before tapering off around 9 p.m. tonight.   Accumulations will average 14-18 inches with some higher amounts possible.  There is a chance of some thundersnow this afternoon.  The snow is wet and with winds gusting to 30 mph it is possible that there may be more power outages.

The storm will move away on Thursday and it will be seasonably cold with highs in the 40s, but with a higher sun angle will help melt some of the snow.

Seasonably cold weather to continue through the weekend with mainly dry conditions.

There is a chance of rain or snow early next week but most of the computer models have the storm well to our south and east to seriously affect our area, but it is still a system to be watched.

THE FORECAST:

TODAY- MAR 7 – Snow becoming heavy at times, high steady in the low 30s.

TONIGHT – Snow ending around 9 p.m. low around 30.  Total accumulations 14-18 inches.

Good morning!   Skies are mostly clear early this morning and temperatures range from around 30 in the Clifton area down to the upper teens further inland, winds are mainly calm.

A weak high pressure moving through the area will give the area dry conditions, we should start off mostly sunny but see an increase in clouds this afternoon, temperatures will be seasonably cool and the winds will be much lighter than the last few days.

A low pressure is expected to develop off the Delmarva coast tonight and intensify as it moves northeast. Snow from this system will begin late tonight and continue through Wednesday ending late Wednesday night; the heaviest snowfall will be from late tomorrow morning into the evening when snowfall rates may be between 1-2 inches an hour.  Total accumulations should be around 8-12 inches with some areas receiving up to 16 inches.  There is even a chance of thundersnow.   Winds will pick up but not be nearly as strong as we experienced on Friday.

High pressure then will build into the area providing dry weather Thursday through the weekend, temperatures will be seasonably cold.

Another low pressure area may give us some rain or snow early next week.
