Skies are clear over the area early on this Tuesday morning and temperatures are the coldest since early last March, the reading in Clifton has dropped to 7 degrees with temperatures just below zero in the colder suburbs, winds are still gusty and wind chills values are below zero.
NOTE: My weather station has stopped reporting, I will probably have to change the outside battery and I will wait till it gets warmer to change it.
Today we will have plenty of sunshine but temperatures should remain below freezing all day but with much less wind.
It will become milder tomorrow after a chilly start and highs should reach the low 40s which is slightly above normal.
Mild and dry weather Thursday and Friday.
Rain will be likely over the weekend as we will be affected by two separate storm systems. It will be mild so almost all of the precipitation will fall as rain although some of the colder suburbs may have some freezing rain or sleet early Saturday.
Another Arctic airmass will bring back colder weather next week.
