After the cold front moves through, this weekend will feature below-average temperatures and possibly some precipitation in the form of rain and/or snow showers. Little to no accumulation is expected but let’s break it down by day:
Friday high temperatures should range from upper-40s in NWNJ to lower 50s in SENJ. The day could start with remnant showers but eventually skies should dry out and give way to some clearing. Winds should be light out of the N/NW. Overnight lows then fall into the upper-20s and lower-30s. Flurries and snow showers are possible through sunrise Saturday.
Saturday should struggle to break 40 for high temperatures statewide. Expect more clouds than blue sky with isolated passing snow showers. Little to no accumulation is expected. Winds will remain light out of the N/NW. Overnight lows should drop into the 20s statewide.
Sunday should reach the mid-40s statewide for high temperatures. Skies should be mostly sunny with light westerly winds. Overnight lows should then fall and hover around freezing through Monday morning.
An early look at next week indicates temperatures in the 50s and 60s for most of the state (slightly cooler for interior elevations of NWNJ). Spring showers look possible any day. We’re almost there!
