CLIFTON’S ALMANAC FOR MARCH 29TH:
AVERAGE HIGH: 54 AVERAGE LOW: 35
RECORD HIGH: 83 – 1985 RECORD LOW: 22 – 2015
YESTERDAY’S HIGH: 44 LOW: 28 PRECIPITATION: NONE
The high pressure that gave us the chilly day yesterday is moving off the coast and we will have a southwesterly flow of milder air today.
Partly sunny and milder on Monday with a continued southwest flow.
Tuesday and Wednesday will be unseasonably warm with highs both days approaching 80 degrees. There is a low chance of light showers Tuesday morning. On Wednesday a front to our north will likely give us showers and thunderstorms Wednesday afternoon and night.
The front will be in our area Thursday through the start of the weekend and each day there will be a chance of showers. There is a question if the front moves to our south or remain just to our north, this will affect our temperatures. If the front stays to our north high temperatures will be in the 70s each day but if the front move further south we would have an onshore flow of cooler air with highs only in the 40s and 50s.
