There feels like five in allentown. Eight in reading. Nine in lab caster. 4b low in mount pocono. No better than teens in millville Atlantic City and wildwood. By from you some spots will be seeing high temperatures, around these numbers. That comes following a re enforcing blast of cold air, that will follow our mid week noreaster. Lets look at ingredients setting up approaching mid week time frame. Storm scan three locally is just cold but dry, but tough to see the pieces of energy coming together to form this system this right here is an arctic cold front the coldest air of the season now diving into the Northern Plains and that is, again, just reenforc ing blast of what we have been feeling. We have a disturbance down here. Little bit of light snow in arkansas. As this moves east it will combine with a very active tropical jet stream and that will produce risk for snow along the coast, late tomorrow night but especially into thursday. The center on this have low will stay far enoug
