Skies are partly cloudy early on this Tuesday morning and temperatures range from the low 40s in the Clifton area to the upper 30s further inland, winds are light.
High pressure will build into our region from Ontario and give us a mostly sunny day but with high temperatures around 10 degrees lower than what was recorded on Monday. Freeze warnings are in effect for much of the area tonight as clear skies and light winds will cause temperatures to fall to the freezing mark in the Clifton area to the 20s inland.
Another cool day on Wednesday along with mostly sunny skies.
A low pressure system will approach the area on Thursday with rain moving into the area in the morning that may briefly start as snow especially inland where an inch or so may accumulate over higher elevations of northwest New Jersey and the Poconos. Rain will taper off to showers and should end by Friday morning.
A weak disturbance will give us a chance of light showers on Saturday and Saturday night, with dry conditions and seasonably cool temperatures on Sunday.
At this point Halloween looks to be dry with seasonably cool temperatures continuing.
