After a mild day on Thursday, colder air has pushed into the region following the late night passage of a cold front. Winds will kick up as well today with gusts to 40 mph quite likely throughout the Mid-Atlantic region. Low pressure can produce snow showers in the NYC metro region on Saturday and then a stronger system could throw some rain and/or snow this way early next week.

The country is sharply divided today in terms of temperatures with record-breaking warmth in the East and bitter cold in much of the western half of the nation. In addition to the cold, accumulating snow is falling in a swath from the Upper Midwest to northern New England from a storm system that has impacted a large part of the nation in recent days. Snow is also falling across many western states and blizzard warnings have been posted in of all places the southern part of California. In fact, for the first time ever, blizzard warnings have been issued by the San Diego office of NOAA’s National Weather Service for the San Bernardino Mountains.

After a mainly cloudy and cool Thursday, the next cold front will push through in the overnight hours resulting in a chilly and increasingly windy end to the work week. It remains quite chilly on Saturday and weak low pressure can produce some snow shower activity in the region, but its moisture content will be rather limited. Another system threatens to bring us some precipitation during the early part of next week.

A cold front pushed through the region late yesterday and today will turn out to be chilly with mainly cloudy skies. Rain is likely by later in the day as low pressure pushes to our northwest and there is an outside chance that sleet mixes in at the onset. On Thursday, temperatures should climb to the 50’s and there can be a couple of additional showers in the region. Another cold front passes through tomorrow night ushering in colder and windy conditions for Thursday night and Friday. Low pressure could produce some snow shower activity around here on Saturday, but the moisture content for this system appears to be rather limited.

The overall weather pattern across the eastern US has been active in recent weeks and there is reason to believe it’ll remain quite energetic over the next couple of weeks. In fact, the Mid-Atlantic/Northeast US can become quite a “battle zone” region with the development in coming days of high-latitude blocking across Greenland/Northeastern Canada at the same time high pressure ridging persists over the Southeast US. There will be times when the SE US ridge shows its strength with warm air surging northward into the Mid-Atlantic region and other times in which the high-latitude blocking flexes its muscle resulting in cold air dropping southward from Canada into the northeastern part of the US.

The week will start off on the mild side in the NYC metro area, but it turns colder by the mid-week. There can be a shower later today, but any rain is more likely to develop later in the evening. Low pressure at mid-week can bring us some rain, sleet and/or snow and -after a milder day on Thursday - it’ll turn colder again by week’s end.

A strong cold front will pass through the region this morning ushering in a cold air mass for tonight and Saturday. Winds ahead of the front this morning will be from the southwest and then will shift to a northwesterly direction in the afternoon and temperatures will fall into the 40’s. Temperatures late tonight will bottom out in the mid-to-upper 20’s and be confined to the mid 40’s for highs on Saturday afternoon. Temperatures will rebound on Sunday and Monday as high pressure shifts to a position off the east coast allowing for the formation of a low-level southwesterly (and milder) flow of air.

A warm front will result in some PM shower activity around here and temperatures will again reach unseasonably mild levels in the low-to-mid 60’s for afternoon highs. A cold front will head this way later tonight bringing with it additional showers that will last right into the morning hours on Friday. It’ll turn much colder on Friday night and Saturday, but this cold snap will be rather short-lived as temperatures should rebound noticeably for Sunday and Monday.

The next couple of days will be unseasonably mild in the Mid-Atlantic region with low-to-mid 60’s on the table in the NYC metro region for afternoon highs. As a front approaches on Thursday, the chance for showers will be on the increase and winds will pick up in intensity as well. After the frontal passage on Friday, it’ll turn much colder for Friday night and Saturday, but - as has been the case with most recent cold snaps - this one will be rather short-lived. Temperatures will begin a noticeable rebound on Sunday and the milder pattern will continue early next week.
