What to Know
- Cold enough for you? The coldest air of the season moved in overnight, dropping wind chills into the single digits, where they are expected to remain through the day Tuesday
- It gets even colder, highs dropping below 20 degrees, for the weekend — and Sunday is looking like a snow day for the NYC area
- At this point, it’s too early to predict potential accumulation, given how much the models are shifting. It does appear, though, that a significant snow event is on tap: It may just be a matter of where.
It’s a good Tuesday, as long as you don’t have to be outside.
The coldest air of the season moved in overnight, dropping wind chills into the single digits, where they are expected to remain through the day. They could dip below zero degrees at points this week.
Highs should only be in the 20s. Lows will be in the teens.
The tri-state area will get a brief midweek bump into the 30s and lower 40s on Thursday before another push of arctic air arrives for the weekend, sending wind chills back into the single digits for virtually the whole weekend.
Looking ahead, there is the potential for a snowfall event this weekend. At this point, it’s too early to predict potential accumulation, given how much the models are shifting. It does appear, though, that a significant snow event is on tap for the East Coast this weekend. It may just be a matter of where the heavy snow sets up.
