Hi, this is meteorologist Steve Pelletier and I am the weatherman. Thanks for checking in to theweathermanpodcom on your Saturday, 11th day of the month of January 2025. And a little bit of a coating of snow in many spots across the mid-Atlantic and northeast again Another major storm, except for across Kentucky, tennessee, sections of West Virginia, virginia and North Carolina where there's several inches of snow and they're really not used to dealing with it. Well, that's snowy conditions in some places, up to 7 to 10 inches in the mountains of West Virginia and the Shenandoah Valley. However, it looks like that area is moving offshore just about a coating to an inch or so from Philly up to New York and even into southern eastern portions of New England. But that system is now moving offshore. In the meantime, lots of snow across Minnesota and western sections of Wisconsin, the Dakotas, montana and even into northern portions of Nebraska and Iowa, as well as a complex series of low-pressure systems are moving into there. That frontal system and that area of low pressure is expected to die out by the time it reaches to the east. The strong high-pressure cell is going to be building down from Canada and is going to bring some cold weather for the central and eastern portion of the nation. In the meantime the West Coast is still looking at those areas of low pressure across Arizona and eastern sections of South California where it is causing a flow to be out of the north by northeast, just continuing to add more fuel to the fire. The very dry conditions from the Santa Ana winds and the fires in southern California and Los Angeles. Our hearts go out to those folks. Hope things start to get a little bit better.

I really don't see much of a change over the next several days. Big area high pressure though, trying to build into the Pacific Northwest that means Seattle and the Portland area will be good and into the east again, down in central and southern Florida, a little bit cooler than it has been the last several weeks. But it looks like eventually this high pressure will build offshore and things will return to normal across much of central and southern Florida the next several days. So if you're flying on this Saturday, it looks like fair, dry weather across through Charlotte and down to Atlanta and down into Miami, also out to Houston, dallas-fort Worth, la. Of course flying into there Lots of smoke from fires and San Francisco is looking pretty good too, but no problems weather-wise up to Portland and Seattle, although a few light rain showers. In Chicago it does look dry, but if you're going into Minneapolis, st Paul, there will be extensive delays because of snow. Some of that snow could be quite heavy and it is expected to last. I don't know throughout the afternoon and evening hours, as those big storms that I mentioned will continue.

Speaker 1: 2:31

Weather across the northeast corner, from DC up to the Boston area, centered right across central and northern New York and New Jersey, where we're located looking at a clearing trend for Saturday afternoon after early flurries and then we get into sunshine on Sunday. Sunday's high is 40, also near 40 or lower 40s on Monday, but high pressure building down from Canada means businesses are going to get cold later. Tuesday, wednesday and Thursday of this week from DC to Boston. I'm your manager, steve Pelletier, and I am the weatherman. Hope you have a great day today. Talk to you first thing on Sunday. Take care.
