Sunday will be partly cloudy with a slight chance of showers in the afternoon (flurries north) highs in the upper 40s.

Dry period almost the rest of next week with a substantial swing in temperatures.
Monday and Tuesday will be quite chilly with highs just a bit above 40 degrees in fact Tuesday’s morning low may drop down into the teens…

Significant warming trend for the mid and later part of next week with highs in the 50s and 60s, with the only chance of showers will hold off till later on Friday…

We should some breaks in the clouds today and it will be cool with highs in the 40s.

The weather people have this day as the first day of the spring season despite the fact that the Vernal Equinox this year is on March 20th..

This past winter season December 2011 thru February 2012 was the second warmest in Central Park since they started their records in 1869 and February 2012 was the warmest February on record.. The warmest winter was ten years ago 2001-2002.

After yesterdays rain, (snow inland) precipitation will gradually end by noon, highs here will be around 50 degrees but there will be a large spread of temperatures with the high in the low 40s in Sussex County to the low 60s in Cape May county..

Friday will be dry with highs in the upper 40s, it will cloud up towards evening with rain developing around midnight.

A warm front will be moving to our north so Saturday we will have showers with highs near 60 degrees, a cold front will be moving through in the afternoon that may cause a rumble of thunder with some showers.

Sunday will be mostly fair with highs around 50.

Dry Monday and Tuesday and the highs will only be in the low 40s which is actually below normal for this time of year…

Wednesday and beyond we look for a rather impressive warm up with the period from March 7th through the 15th may be mainly in the 50s and 60s…

It now appears the temperatures are a little warmer today than foretasted yesterday so the precipitation will be mainly in the form of rain which will begin shortly before noon today and continue though Thursday morning, some sleet may mix in when the precipitation starts today but no accumulation. Well north of us across the hills of Passaic and Sussex counties will have an inch or two of snow but even up there what is falling will change to rain later today.. Highs today will be in the low 40s..

Tomorrow the rain will end with highs climbing close to 50 degrees.

Dry on Friday but becoming cloudy with rain developing late at night, high in the upper 40s.

Saturday we will have showers and milder reaching 60 degrees..

Sunday dry and a bit cooler high near 50.

Right now Monday and Tuesday look dry but cooler with highs in the mid 40s.

Still looks like a major warmup towards the end of next week with highs reaching the 60s.

Today Tuesday will be another fine late February day although a bit cooler with highs around 50 degrees.

Tomorrow is when the weather goes downhill, we will have a cloudy start with precipitation starting around noon, the Clifton area will be right on the rain/snow/mix line with just rain to our south and snow and ice to our north. Best guess for accumulation right now is a coating around here, 1-2 inches in Morris County, 2-3 inches in Sussex and northern Passaic County and more as you head up to upstate New York. The precipitation will continue till Thursday afternoon but it should change to rain even up north as temperatures rise into the 40s. Clearing Thursday night..

Friday will be dry with highs in the upper 40s..

Next chance of precipitation will be on Saturday but this will be all rain or rain showers as reading go up into the 50s.

Sunday looks dry with highs in the upper 40s.

The long long range looks quite mild again next week especially from mid-week on as March looks like it will continue with generally above normal temperatures..
