Navigating Winter's Chill: Insights and Tips for the Northeast Snowstorm and Nationwide Cold Fronts
Hi, this is Meteorologist Steve Pelletieri and thanks for checking into TheWeathermanPodcom on this 19th day of the month of January 2025. And we've got some wintry weather across the Northeast. Looks like just the latest guidance numbers that we're seeing New York City, philadelphia and DC all going to get about four to six inches of snowfall, all associated with, first, an Arcticctic front moving through, then a secondary area of low pressure forming along that frontal system, then traveling toward the northeast. Now along the jersey shore from, say, sandy hook all the way down to cape, may probably will be in a form of some rain to start. I've seen some situations where, even with the coldest air moving in, it always seems to rain within a couple of miles of the jersey shore, but then eventually the upper level winds and the surface winds become about the same, more of a northwesterly direction and it brings down those temperatures. So even there you're looking at maybe as much as 4 or 5 inches in sections of Asbury Park all the way up to Sandy Hook and into the New Brunswick area of New Jersey. Down in DC it looks like about four to six inches for Inauguration Day It'll probably be fair and cold, but lots of snow on the ground. That's why they moved it indoors. It's going to be brustly and cold for Dr Martin Luther King Day and even from New England all the way down to the Mid-Atlantic and, well, the southern and eastern Ohio Valley Looking at some places, between seven and 10 inches of snowfall from this storm.
Speaker 1:Hey, it's wintertime. It's about time that it happened. Looks like the Arctic high pressure system is moving in. It looks like Monday, tuesday and Wednesday temperatures only in the teens to near 20. Nighttime lows in a single digit. Very cold Midwinter very blustery cold conditions for the northeast elsewhere across the nation.
Speaker 1:If you're going to be traveling on this sunday, it looks like it's going to be kind of tough on the new york, newark, laguardia, jfk and even up into the boston area because of the expected snowfall, especially in the afternoon and evening. Down in dc the snow should be tapering off by the later afternoon hours, but still snow must boston and new york linger into the evening hours. So some problems or even delays or cancellations if you're going into those places or trying to leave from those places as well. The plane's got to get in in order to go out. If you can't get in, that's what causes all those cancellations.
Speaker 1:So some snow showers in atlanta, also in the uh charlotte area, looking at the possibility of windy and cold weather for the daytime. In the central and southern portions of Florida there will be some scattered showers and thunderstorms, with a strong cold front even moving through the Keys. It looks like dry but cold weather in Houston and Dallas and Amarillo, northward up to St Louis and even into the Chicago area, minneapolis, st Paul just clear but bitter cold, single digits minus figures out that way and along the whole West Coast. It's a series of low-pressure systems that are keeping winds generally around the east. Now central and northern portions of California send east by slightly southeast winds, so not so much of a problem there. But if that ever drifts further south and starts to shift off to the east, that can bring those Santa Ana winds once again down into central and southern California. Let's hope that does not happen. But there will be scattered showers and also some snow squalls across Idaho, sections of Montana, montana into Colorado and Wyoming. Heavy amounts of snow in some of those mountain areas there, but elsewhere across the nation it's just a very cold weather pattern coming in for your Sunday, monday and Tuesday.
Speaker 1:I'm Eddie Rogers, steve Pelletier and I am the weatherman. Hope you have a great day today. We'll update the weather forecast during the afternoon on Sunday. It really looks like a tough day, a late-day Sunday and Sunday evening across the Northeast. See you then.
