Freezing rain this morning changing to all plain rain this afternoon! Dry the rest of the week!


The temperature in the Clifton area at daybreak is 33 degrees with light rain falling, however the surface is still cold so the precipitation is freezing on untreated sidewalks and roads so be careful if you have to go out this morning.  Further inland temperatures are below freezing with a mixture of sleet and freezing rain falling.

A winter weather advisory is in effect until this afternoon as we will have freezing rain in our area until temperatures rise into the upper 30s in the Clifton area, however inland the precipitation will continue to be freezing rain most of the day with some ice accumulation.

Clearing will take place on Tuesday but it will be cold.

After a cold morning on Wednesday temperature will moderate in the afternoon along with mostly sunny skies.

Dry weather will persist the rest of the week into the weekend with temperatures near normal Thursday through Saturday and then above normal on Sunday.

Dry and cold today! Not as cold on Sunday! Winter mix of precipitation likely on Monday!


We have clear skies early this Saturday morning and temperatures are quite chilly once again ranging from 13 degrees in the Clifton area to some single digits in the normally colder inland spots, winds are from the northwest around 10 mph.

Today will be another chilly day with highs only reaching the low 20s despite plenty of sunshine.

After a very cold Sunday morning temperatures will moderate in the afternoon and high temperatures will be around ten degrees higher than yesterday.

Monday will be a messy winter day as moisture from the south moves into the area, look for a mix of snow, sleet and freezing rain to arrive around daybreak and may change to plain rain in the afternoon changing back to snow before ending Monday evening.  At this time it looks  like the Clifton area will receive less than a inch of frozen precipitation but inland a couple of inches of snow and sleet may accumulate.

Becoming sunny on Tuesday but temperatures will be cold once again.

Sunny on Wednesday with moderating temperatures.

A storm is expected to develop off the southeast coast on Thursday, at this time it appears it will be too far south to affect our weather but still it is a system to watch.

SUNDAY – Partly sunny and not as cold, high in the low 30s.
