8 PM update Monday!

*********8PM UPDATE MONDAY NIGHT*********

Once again we will be on the edges of a storm, as this one gets "pushed" to the south by the Arctic High to the north giving us all this cold. Essentially what is happening is the low is physically not as strong as the High and therefore the Low cannot turn north as it usually goes because the Arctic High is there. 

Dillon and I feel the models have a very good handle on the situation, and so are putting out a minor snow alert for 1-3" AT BEST for NYC, WESTCHESTER and COASTAL CT, NORTHERN JERSEY..ETC The farther North from NYC you get the less snow. Southern LI might get 2-4" as the storm passes by. Mid Jersey also 2-4", and then Southern Jersey 3-6".

Dillon and I do NOT feel a snow map is needed, as the accumulations will be low, and the event quick.

TIMING - Late tonight (After midnight) and then into tomorrow morning maybe afternoon. Not really a heavy snow, more like a light consistent snow tapering off by lunchtime Tuesday. The HEAVIEST of the LIGHT SNOW will be during Rush hour tomorrow morning. 

TEMPERATURES STILL FRIGID GUYS, COLD COLD COLD, AND MORE COLD ON THE WAY!

*****************

Looking at another possible Storm for Sunday-Monday.

*****************
TONIGHT - COLD Lows in the low teens, windchills possibly reaching the negatives. Light snow arriving after midnight.

TUESDAY - Highs right around 20º, Light snow in the morning will clear out by lunchtime/early afternoon. TOTAL 1-3" At best. ALSO, you may see alotta snow on radar but NONE reaching the ground - the air is so cold and dry it might evaporate it all up. This is called Virga.

WEDNESDAY - Chance of some light snow in the evening, otherwise Highs near 30º, lows in the single digits. 

THURSDAY - ANOTHER Arctic Shot, Highs in the low teens and Lows near or below 0º. Sunny and windy as well.

**************

HAVE A GREAT NIGHT GUYS!
