Discussion
A cold front will swing through the region today and it will begin a pattern change to colder that will be aided by a significant stratospheric warming event. A second frontal system will arrive late in the weekend and temperatures will take another notch down as we move into early next week. In recent years that featured a significant stratospheric warming event during the latter part of January, the month of February generally turned out to be colder-than-normal throughout the Northeast US.
