You can see how this scoots just to the south of us. Then when this gets off shore, we think it brays more snow it brings more snowfall. If theres any switch on how that develops it could bring higher amounts. For our area, a trace to 3 inches. Well see some people get snow that accumulates. Grassy areas. Slick travel will be the main impact from this. 10 to 12 degrees colder. We go with increasing clouds and 32. Yes, we have freezing temperatures as this comes in.

Im saying it is what it is. This time of year, we can get in the top snowstorms in history in new york city there is one for the month of march, which i will have for you in the 7 00 hour. All right.

I was going to say in like a lamb, but its not going to be april beginning with cold rain even snow possible. The larger amounts of snow that were perhaps a possibility looking less and less likely as the storm system develops off shore and the track really makes it impossible for to us see deep snow. Wow, what a start to this day. I love it. Empire state building and one world trade. Clouds come in, increase and dim the sunshine that weve got early on. Weve also got a northerly wind that will keep us cool throughout the day. So 36 degrees right now. Youll notice the difference. Its colder than yesterday at the same time. Its below average all weekend long. On long island, 35 degrees. Looking at this big picture here over the entire tristate, 20 degrees colder than yesterday at the same time.

In first for south jersey. Late tonight is cold rain. Tomorrow during the day, were looking at these scenarios of the cold air returning. Then what could happen. Rain mixing to wet snow if the system was a little closer to the shoreline or this lower impact of snow just off to the east of the city. It looks like right now we might get the rain to wet snow but the shift is so far to the east, the impact should be low and slick roadways will be the main impact. I think that runners tomorrow morning, you get a decent race. Close call, right . Late tonight for south jersey, we get the cold rain. Maybe some light snow flurries falling. Tonight we start with the clouds and cold temperatures. This low develops there offshore. Possibility of us getting into the deep snow doesnt look likely. So 10 to 12 degrees colder than it was yesterday. 46 the high. Tonight, down to the freezing point, increasing clouds. Not a mess tomorrow. Expected to be more wet than white. Its going to be cold, though. 37 degrees for the high. We take monday as a quick recovery day, 45. Were at mostly sunny and 47 for tuesday. Temperatures really look good. Second half of the week. First full week of spring here. We go 59 on wednesday, thursday. 65 degrees and then friday 68. All in all, this spells spring like weather where we can get a dose of cold in april or start to warm things up and go above average. Thats how this one plays out. Say goodbye to winter later today on the calendar. Expect it to stick around at least through the weekend in the form of weather. You know, the idea or con set of the calendar changing does nature.
