Good morning!

Skies are cloudy early on this Wednesday morning and temperatures range from the low 30s in Clifton down to the mid 20s further inland. There are many icy patches on untreated surfaces so be careful heading out this morning. Yesterday in Clifton I measured 2.0 inches of snow and ice.

Skies will become mostly sunny this morning and be partly sunny this afternoon, it will become windy with gusts around 32 mph, with the sunshine temperatures will moderate into the low 40s.

Thursday will be a dry with mild temperatures and less wind.

It now appears that Friday will turn out to be mostly dry with only a slight chance of a shower as a cold front approaches the area, ahead of the front it will be quite mild with highs reaching the 50s.

Colder and dry on Saturday.

The next chance of snow will be on Sunday as a weak low pressure moves northeast off the coast, too early for details but as of now that rain or snow will develop in the afternoon and continue as snow at night.

Dry weather early next week with seasonably cool temperatures.
