What a nice day most folks are seeing with temps in the 50s and 60s region-wide. As many of you have seen in your forecasts we’re looking rain across most regions for the coastal storm Thurs Night – Friday as the track brings it over land. Central and NE PA, Hudson Valley, N. CT and W. MA are going to be set up for a wintry mix, however we are even concerned for a few other areas to the South of these regions.
The reason is despite very warm air aloft, a shallow cold front cross tonight. Winds behind this front are North or Northeasterly and take a look at the map below. Those are afternoon temps in the 20s and teens across Canada and some of this air tries to move to the surface. Therefore, we are keeping the threat that some places may mix during this storm. Also, still could see some wet snow at the tail end of this event.
