Weak System Pushes Across Today Bringing Wintry Mix
Good morning everyone. Our much anticipated system is here, and it was only a letdown if you were expecting something this thing wasn’t capable of. Let’s get right to it below, plus a very cold end of the week.
SATELLITE
Areas of scattered precipitation are starting to make their way into the Tri-State area. Things remain light in nature, and the mid-layers of our atmosphere are looking a little “warmer”. That’ll translate into the wintry mix expected throughout the NYC/Long Island area. We’ll see some light snow, sleet, and rain, with some freezing rain possible in the colder spots. As I write this, we are around 35 degrees in the area, so freezing rain and even snow sticking on the ground, is not likely at this moment.
The “heavier” (of the light) precip may change things to all snow, but then turn back to sleet and rain as it lightens up. Expect similar conditions to persist on and off overnight and into tomorrow morning.
Little to no accumulation is expected, with the best chance of absolutely nothing, happening across the south shores of Brooklyn, Queens, Long Island, and the Forks.
Clouds and scattered mixed precip lingers tomorrow, but with highs near 40, we have no issues as far as icing or accumulating snow.
Thursday is looking like a nasty day as our next system scoots off of the coast way south of us. It’ll help keep the clouds in the area, with cold temps and breezy conditions. Expect a raw low to mid 30’s.
That’ll help dip some every cold air into region for Thursday night into Saturday. Look for lows in the mid to upper teens Thursday night, mid 20’s as highs Friday under blustery conditions, then low to mid teens Friday night.
