Rather nice weather today! Coldest air of the season so far tomorrow through Monday with freezing temperatures likely!

Skies are mostly cloudy early this Friday morning and there are some showers across the Poconos into extreme northwest New Jersey, temperatures range from around 50 in Clifton to near 40 further inland, winds are light.

A weak cold front will be crossing the area this morning that will give us some cloudiness and a possible shower this morning mainly inland, clearing will take place by this afternoon and temperatures even behind the front will still be seasonably mild.

A stronger cold front will cross the area on Saturday but will come through with no precipitation, the front will be followed by the coldest air of the fall so far, high temperatures will be more than 10 degrees colder than today and drop off to the 30s by Sunday morning, it will also be breezy, freezing temperatures are likely especially inland.

Cold air will continue Sunday and Monday and Sunday night may be even colder than Saturday night.

Dry weather will continue the rest of next week with a nice warming trend.

Congratulations to the New York Mets for winning their season against the Dodgers last night, they will play a best of seven series starting Saturday night in New York against the Cubs and it will be mighty cold and breezy for both the Saturday and Sunday night’s games at City Field.
