/by

Good morning! A roller coaster ride of temperatures is on the way over the next several days. It begins today, with a strong cold front moving through the region this morning. Gusty northwest winds have already begun, and even despite plenty of sunshine temperatures have fallen into the upper 20’s to lower to middle 30’s across the area this morning. A slow climb back into the middle and upper 30’s is expected this afternoon, but blustery winds will continue.

3/04 All Zones Update: Arctic Airmass Remains This Weekend, Warming Trend Early Next Week

/by

Happy Saturday! Very cold and blustery conditions are in store for today. Sunshine will be mixing with some clouds  as some instability remains in the atmosphere. But it should remain dry for most of the region with maybe a few spotty flurries over the Interior. Temperatures will only rise into the upper 20s or lower 30s this afternoon. A tight pressure gradient between high pressure north of the Great Lakes and a deepening storm near New Foundland will also cause northwest winds to occasionally gust today between 30-40mph, especially by this afternoon. This will result in windchills in the single digits and teens throughout the day.

As we look ahead, however, the rest of Monday will remain quite cold and blustery.

Low temperatures on Monday morning bottomed out in the 20’s throughout much of the interior, with a hard freeze occurring in many locations. Even in New York City, low temperatures approached freezing — although we are still awaiting official numbers. Islip, NY unofficially broke their daily low temperature record when they reached a temperature of 30 F shortly before sunrise.
