Forecast Discussion

The center of arctic high pressure is moving east today and will be over New Jersey tonight. Moisture and milder air will override the cold air in place near the surface producing a brief period of light freezing rain from just before midnight tonight into about sunrise Sunday morning.

Light freezing rain will transition to just spotty light rain early Sunday morning. Spotty light rain will be possible until early-afternoon.

A cold front from the west arrives early Monday morning. Winds pick up from the northwest and another brief period of spotty light rain is possible late Sunday night into Monday morning. Monday is cloudy and cool, but mostly dry after that early light rain.

Another brief cold wedge develops Tuesday with moisture overrunning from the south. We'll have light afternoon and nighttime rain Tuesday. Temperatures warm significantly Tuesday night.

Latest computer guidance greatly speeds up the next front compared to what was thought 12 hours ago. Wednesday will be cloudy with rain. Temperatures fall in the afternoon and at night, changing rain to snow showers or flurries late Wednesday night.

Thursday will be colder with morning flurries. Thursday night will be mostly clear and cold. Friday has few clouds but chilly temperatures.
