MORE DANGEROUS COLD AND TREACHEROUS TRAVEL LOOMS FOR MUCH OF FEBRUARY

1. No changes from previous idea on upcoming storm (see previous video discussion). In the pink area on the map below, ice accretion will be the biggest headache from Sunday night through Monday evening near the coast (1-3" of snow there) with 3" of snow or greater confined to north and west of NYC. Very slick road conditions likely during this time frame, albeit with a fairly light amount of precipitation (heaviest precip stays well north of the area).

2. After the storm exits,  skies clear out, but temps remain cold in the low to mid 30s for Tuesday and again Wednesday. 

3. A coastal storm will develop off the Mid-Atlantic states on Thursday and needs to be watched; right now, it looks like a near-miss.

4. Aforementioned storm will deliver a severely cold air mass for Thursday night into Friday, with slow moderation Saturday (but only into the 20s for highs).  Dangerous wind-chill values on Friday will generally be around -10 to -20 Fahrenheit.

5. Another vicious Arctic blast is likely for Sunday into Monday, with a renewed threat early next week of significant snows for part or all of the region. 

Update to follow Tuesday.

ACTIVE COLD, STORMY PATTERN CONTINUES

1.  Wednesday will feel like a heat wave, as temps climb into the upper 30s to low 40s on a southerly flow off of the ocean. But this air mass will be short-lived. Gusty winds during the day will usher in the latest in a series of Arctic cold fronts, which will arrive very late at night. Temps tumble sharply at night Wednesday night.

2.  Snow will develop for Thursday morning from west to east, most likely around the morning rush hours. Potential is there for up to two inches of new snow by the time the snow ends Thursday morning.  Some places may see moderate to heavy snowfall rates for a brief time before the snow ends.

3. Bitter cold for Thursday night into Friday morning, with wind-chill values near to below 0. Quiet weather prevails for the end of the week and for Saturday. Then, we'll have to watch a storm system for Sunday and Sunday night. Accumulating snow is possible during this time frame. This will need updating.

4. Continued cold, stormy weather pattern for the foreseeable future. Pattern appears to be loaded with plenty of cold in addition to an active southern storm track for balance of the month.
