2. By Thursday, the first of many strong shots of cold air will begin to plummet into the region on a stiff northerly wind. Potential is there for a small storm system to give us precip (rain/snow) for late Thursday night into Friday morning, particularly towards the coast. Update will be needed.
3. By Friday afternoon, even more cold air rushes in! Temps over the weekend are stuck in 40s during the day through at least next Monday.

4. On the heels of the Thursday "clipper low," a stronger, more vigorous storm will develop near the Gulf of Mexico and track northward for early next week. This system has the chance to offer a more substantial round of rain/snow Sunday night into Monday, but models have been inconsistent in terms of the storms' eventual track. Bears watching.
5. Outstanding mid-November cold (compared to averages for this time of year) will hold its grip in place through the 20th. Persistent, blocking pattern is the culprit, along with above-normal snow cover in the Northern Hemisphere. We should expect many days where highs are only in the upper 30s and lower 40s, with lows in the upper 20s to lower 30s area-wide; even colder away from NYC at night!
