Friday Night Weekend Update: There is a Chill in the Air

Well it was a interesting week for weather. We started off with warm temps and rain then transitioned into a very cold air mass for this time of year. In fact, snow flakes were flying yesterday in NNJ, I witnessed it myself!

Let briefly talk about the weekend..

Warm will not be the word for this weekend. Many areas only see highs in the 50's. Tonight and Saturday night there are freeze watches out. Many areas to the north go below freezing!

Here is the air mass..

That upper level low over New  England has been responsible for this chilly weather. It lingers till the end of the weekend then a broader trough settles in for next week. This means more colder than normal weather but not as chilly as we are currently seeing..

The good news in partly cloudy to sunny skis for the whole weekend! As long as you have a light jacket this weekend should be no issue.

I will have updates Monday in my weekly weather summary.
