WEDNESDAY FEBRUARY 15, 2017 5:58 A.M.
Skies are partly to mostly cloudy early on this Wednesday morning and temperatures range from around 30 in the Clifton area to near 20 further inland, winds are mainly calm. My wind indicator did thaw out yesterday around noon and is operating properly now.
Today we will have a mostly cloudy day but it will be mild with temperatures rising to well up into the 40s, a weak cold front will cross the area this afternoon possibly accompanied by a brief shower, winds will be light but pick up tonight after the front goes through.
A strong storm is expected to develop offshore tonight and is expected to give our area high winds on Thursday but not as strong as we experience on Monday, temperatures will be seasonably cold. Less wind on Friday with continued seasonably cold temperatures as high pressure moves south of the area.
Pleasantly mild conditions are expected for the weekend with plenty of sunshine, highs both days should rise to the 50s.
Continued mild and mostly dry weather early next week.
