Week Starts Okay. Ends Cold (Nov 7-11)

The week should start okay but a cold weekend awaits…

Nerdy Disco: We’ll stay under the influence of high pressure for the first half of the week. That will keep it somewhat average during the day and chilly at night. A cold front is then expected to push through Wednesday night into Thursday  which should knock temperatures down a bit for Thursday and Friday. This cold front could feature some precipitation ahead of it for Wednesday.  Another cold front is then expected heading into the weekend which should be winter’s first haymaker of cold air mass (Saturday-Sunday). Gusty NW winds and below-freezing overnight temperatures should make for a downright cold weekend and possibly some lake effect streaming snow showers. We’ll see.

Monday (Nov 7) high temperatures should reach the mid-to-upper 50s statewide. Skies should be mostly sunny. Winds should be light out of the N/NE. Overnight lows should fall into the 30s statewide and even the 20s for NNJ elevations. Overnight frosts are likely for many areas. NNJ and some interior areas are subject to a freeze.

Tuesday (Nov 8) high temperatures should reach the mid-60s statewide. Skies should be mostly sunny. Winds should be light out of the W/NW. Overnight lows should fall into the 40s statewide.

Wednesday (Nov 9) high temperatures should reach the upper-50s/lower-60s. Skies should feature a mixed bag of sun and clouds to start. Rain is possible during afternoon-evening hours ahead of the cold front. Winds should be light-to-breezy out of the NW. Overnight lows should fall into the 30s statewide. Overnight frost is likely for many areas.

Thursday (Nov 10) high temperatures should reach into the 50s statewide. Skies should be partly-to-mostly sunny. Winds should be light-to-breezy out of the NW. Overnight lows should fall into the 30s statewide with frosts likely once again.

Friday (Nov 11) high temperatures should reach the mid-to-upper-50s statewide. Skies should be partly sunny. Winds should be breezy-to-gusty out of the W/NW. Overnight lows should fall into the 30s statewide with more frosts likely.

An early look at the weekend indicates another temperature drop with continued northerly flow. We’re talking highs in the 40s/lows in the 20s for most with only the immediate coast reaching into the 50s during the day and only dropping into the 30s. I wouldn’t be surprised to see some lake effect snow streamers making their way over NJ. We’ll see. Let’s revisit mid-week. Everyone have a great week and please be safe! JC
