Moisture moving into our area this morning will cause some light precipitation that may fall as a mixture of snow and sleet in the Clifton area before changing to plain rain this afternoon. Further inland snow, sleet and freezing rain may coat the ground. Precipitation changes to all rain in all areas tonight and will become heavy at times, winds will also increase..
Heavy rain will persist on Wednesday with a total of 2-3 inches likely, winds will continue to be strong and temperatures will rise into the 50s by tomorrow morning.
The storm will start moving away on Wednesday night and some of the rain may end as snow or snow flurries especially inland.
Thanksgiving Day will be quite cold and windy but not quite as harsh as we experienced on Sunday.
Below normal temperatures will continue Friday into Saturday with a moderating trend on Sunday, no precipitation is expected although there may be a chance of a shower on Sunday.

Have a very pleasant Tuesday!

After some record low temperatures this morning today will be less brutal than on Sunday! Heavy rain Tuesday night into Wednesday morning that may start as snow or sleet Tuesday afternoon!


Record low temperatures this morning in the area with clear skies and light winds as most readings are in the teens.  Yesterday was a very unusually cold day for November with highs not getting out of the 20s, that was the first time since 1989 that this occurred in November and with winds gusting to 40mph made it feel even worse.

Today we will add a couple of degrees to yesterday’s high temperature but with much less wind it will feel much less uncomfortable.

Tuesday we will see an increase of clouds with light precipitation in the form of a mix of snow, sleet and freezing rain may occur by noon, most likely inland. As the strong storm moves up the coast warmer air will move in changing all the precipitation to rain. Heavy rain will fall mainly from Tuesday night into Wednesday morning with 2-3 inches expected.  Temperatures will rise into the 50s by Wednesday morning.

The rain will taper off Wednesday afternoon and may change briefly to snow inland before ending early Thanksgiving morning.

Thanksgiving day promises to be a cold windy day but not as bad as on Sunday with most highs in the upper 30s.

Dry weather and seasonably cool weather Friday into the weekend with a slight warming trend towards Sunday.

 

The forecast: Today – Increasing cloudiness, high in the mid 30s.

Tonight – Mostly cloudy, low in the upper 20s.

Tuesday – Mix rain and sleet likely by the afternoon changing to rain, high in the low 40s.  Heavy rain at night.

Wednesday – Rain, heavy at times tapering off by the afternoon, high in the mid 50s.

Thanksgiving Day – Clearing and windy, high in the mid-upper 30s.

Friday – Sunny, high in the upper 30s.

Saturday – Sunny, high near 40.

Sunday – Partly sunny, high in the mid-upper 40s.

 

Marine Forecast: Today – West-northwest winds this morning to 18 knots becoming westerly to 13 knots, seas 5 feet this morning, diminishing to 2 feet this afternoon

Outlook – Sub-advisory level conditions on Tuesday, but advisories likely Tuesday afternoon through Thanksgiving Day.

 

Have a nice day!

 

Extremely cold and windy Sunday! Storm to give area mainly rain Tuesday night into Wednesday!


Brrrr it is cold and windy outside as Arctic air arrived last night giving us even a brief dusting of snow. Temperatures this morning are ranging from near 20 degrees in the Clifton area to the teens further inland, wind gusting above 30MPH are dropping wind chills to the single digits…
Some sunshine today will not help much as highs struggle to get above the 30 degree mark and with winds gusting to 40mph will make it feel unusually cold for this time of year. A wind advisory is effect along with a red flag warning due to the possibilities of brush fires.
By early morning on Monday we may have record low temperatures in much of the area.
During the day on Monday temperatures will be well below normal but with less wind it won’t feel as harsh as today.
The well advertised storm for the middle of the week now appears just to be a soaking rain event with the only possibility of snow or ice falling will be very well inland of our area in the beginning and maybe the end of the storm.. The timing of the precipitation is from late Tuesday night into Wednesday afternoon.
1-2 inches of well needed rain is likely. Still some questions on the track of the storm, the European model has it moving just to our west and if that is the case temperatures on Wednesday may rise into the 50s… The American model has the storm just offshore. Both models outcome would give us a well needed soaking of rain as this fall has been so dry.
The storm will move away Wednesday night and Thanksgiving day will be chilly and breezy but not as cold as today.
Seasonably cold and dry Friday into next weekend.

The forecast: Today – Mostly sunny, very windy and cold, high only around 30. wind gusts to 45mph.
Tonight – Mostly clear with diminishing winds, low in the upper teens.
Monday – Increasing clouds, high in the mid-upper 30s.
Tuesday – Cloudy with a chance of rain in the afternoon, high in the low to mid 40s. Rain likely at night.
Wednesday – Cloudy with rain likely in the morning with a chance of rain in the afternoon, high in the mid-upper 40s.
Thanksgiving Day – Mostly sunny and breezy, high in the upper 30s.
Friday – Mostly sunny, high in the upper 30s.
Saturday – Mostly sunny, high in the low 40s.

Marine forecast: Gale warning issued till midnight tonight for northwest winds gusting to 45 knots, seas 3-6 feet.
Outlook – Sub-advisory level conditions on Monday into Tuesday but advisories likely Tuesday night through Thanksgiving Day.

Keep warm and go Giants!
