Hi, this is meteorologist Steve Pelletier and I'm the weatherman. Thanks for checking into the weatherman podcom on your Wednesday, 22nd day of the month of January 2025. What a month it has been, my goodness. Those big storms, the winter storms, blizzard like conditions in many places in Texas Gulf Coast, from Galveston across through New Orleans and Mobile and even down into Tallahassee, and during the evening hours and during the overnight from Tuesday into Wednesday we saw some heavy amounts of snow and sleet and freezing rain and a little bit of everything all across the northern panhandle, from Tallahassee to Jacksonville, northward to Savannah. Also lots of snow and ice in Charleston, south Carolina, wilmington, north Carolina, and it looks like that storm is going to be gradually moving offshore during the overnight hours and its wake will have several inches of snow and ice in many of those places, along with the frigid, cold temperatures that have been in firm control of the nation so far this week, as high pressure is across the mid-Atlantic to the northeast, from DC up to the Boston area looking at a fair day, but it's sunshine, but still quite cold. Normal high temperatures should be around 35, 40 degrees. They're only going to be 25, to excuse me, about 18 to about 25 degrees from DC to the Boston area, so averaging a good 10 to 15 degrees below normal, in some places as much as 20 degrees below normal, going to keep this month well below normal weather-wise. We do see a frontal system working its cray across the Great Lakes and that will be arriving in the east, maybe with just a little bit of cloud cover on Thursday evening, early Friday, but then the net effect will be high pressure with near normal temperatures, possibly arriving towards the end of this upcoming weekend in New York City and early next week Elsewhere across the nation.

If you're flying, it looks like the weather is finally clearing in Florida, so some better weather out of there. Atlanta's doing fine, going to have good weather, but they're just messing around with the very cold temperatures and all that precipitation that they got over the last 24 hours. Charlotte also looking at fair but cold conditions. Boston will have fair conditions also, fair and dry and very light winds in New York and Newark, so no delays expected there. Chicago, though frontal system will be arriving that's going to be causing snow and snow squalls, so there could be delays going into Chicago during the daytime and evening hours. Today Looks dry in Texas, both Houston, dallas-fort Worth and Amarillo looking fine. Dry conditions along the west coast, as high pressure is the main feature across much of the western coast states. I'm Indy Routt, justine Pelletier and I'm the weatherman. Hope you have a great day today. Keep warm and we'll talk to you first thing on Thursday. Take care.
