NYC Internet Abuzz With Valentines Day Storm Insert Eyeroll
Good morning everyone. Could it happen? Yes, it could happen. It’s also 12 days out and 6 systems away, so I’m going to stomp on everyone’s dreams now and get back to reality. The reality is for the moment, we have a cold blast starting to make its way towards us, and it’ll be short-lived with 40’s returning Sunday, 50’s returning mid-workweek.
SATELLITE
We’ll have a few clouds this morning, then a mostly sunny day. Winds will begin to pick up, but not like tomorrow. Highs will be near 40 in most spots. Temps drop overnight into the upper teens to low 20’s, and we won’t recover much before really dropping tomorrow.
Our arctic blast rushes in tomorrow with early highs in the low to mid 20’s, then dropping through the teens by sunset. We’ll have a slight chance of a few flurries, but it’ll be sunny for most of the day. Best chance to see any snow will be well upstate by the Finger Lakes and Central/Upper NY. Lows overnight will be wide-ranging as winds keep full radiational cooling from happening. We’ll be in the near 0 to upper single digits, with the best chance of seeing near 0 temps being the Pine Barrens of LI and N&W of NYC in the Poconos & Catskills. Wind gusts over 35mph both tomorrow and tomorrow night will put windchills in the negatives.
WEATHER RADAR
Saturday is bitter and crisp, with sunshine and highs in the low to mid 20’s. Lows overnight will remain steady, then we have a mix of sun and clouds Sunday with highs in the mid 40’s.
Mid 40’s to upper hold on for Monday, then we’ll be near 50 for Tuesday. As our next system arrives, we could nudge into the mid 50’s depending on sunshine and the final wind profile.
