But as this high center moves closer, winds will drop off during the day. If you are planning to travel by foot or wheels, especially this morning, keep in mind that any surfaces that were wet or slushy at the end of the day yesterday have frozen solid, and the smoother ones where a cleaner sheet of ice can form are especially hazardous. And we may be adding to the ground ice hazard in some locations on Sunday. After our nice day today, clouds will be moving in tonight ahead of a warm front that extends from low pressure that will be tracking north of us later on Sunday. Periods of rain moving in with this front will fall as freezing rain in some areas away from the coast which remain below freezing for part of the day, if not most of it. We finally get into the warm sector for a while later in the day when all areas should spend some time above freezing, with improvement in icy areas. However, this time our &#8220;warm-up&#8221; is to be short-lived. A cold front will come through here on Sunday night setting us up for a colder and breezy Monday, which will be generally dry. However, an arctic cold front will be charging through the region late in the day through early evening, and may trigger some snow showers and snow squalls. Whether or not these occur, what will definitely occur is a bitter blast of arctic air from Monday night through Tuesday night. Temperature moderation takes place Wednesday, though it will still be cold, and we&#8217;ll see clouds arrive with a weak low pressure area approaching via the Great Lakes that may result in some light snowfall if it has enough moisture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>TODAY: Sunny. Highs 25-32. Wind NW 5-15 MPH with higher gusts morning, diminishing afternoon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>TONIGHT: Partly cloudy. Lows 13-20 evening, rising into the 20s overnight. Wind calm evening, S up to 10 MPH overnight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>SUNDAY: Early sun possible especially eastern coastal locations, otherwise mainly cloudy. Scattered rain with pockets of freezing rain inland late morning and midday. Chance of rain showers all areas later in the afternoon. Highs 36-43 occurring late in the day. Wind S up to 10 MPH morning, SW 10-20 MPH afternoon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>SUNDAY NIGHT: Mostly cloudy evening including a chance of rain showers  South Coast \/ Cape Cod. Clearing overnight. Black ice formation on untreated surfaces. Lows 22-29. Wind NW 10-20 MPH. Wind chill below 15 at times.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>MONDAY: Mostly sunny to partly cloudy. Isolated late-day snow showers. Highs 25-32. Wind W 10-20 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>MONDAY NIGHT: Partly cloudy with a chance of snow showers \/ squalls evening. Clear overnight. Lows 3-10. Wind NW 10-20 MPH and gusty. Wind chill -5 to -15.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>TUESDAY: Sunny. Highs 8-15. Wind WNW 10-20 MPH. Wind chill below 0.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>TUESDAY NIGHT: Clear. Lows -2 to +5. Wind NW 5-15 MPH, diminishing. Wind chill -5 to -15 evening.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>WEDNESDAY: Increasing clouds. Chance of light snow late-day. Highs 22-29. Wind variable up to 10 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>DAYS 6-10 (JANUARY 13-17)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Expecting generally below normal temperatures during this period. Watching for an ocean storm to evolve early to mid period that earliest indications show will remain at sea, but this type of pattern can set up an onshore flow that in a cold pattern can lead to ocean-effect snow showers. Watching another system for potential wintry weather impact near the end of the period but confidence is far lower on that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>DAYS 11-15 (JANUARY 18-22)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Expecting generally below normal temperatures to continue for this period. General pattern looks on the dry side but can&#8217;t rule out 1 or 2 wintry precipitation threats.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>DAYS 1-5 (JANUARY 8-12) After a snow event that over-produced in some areas yesterday, thanks to that good old synoptic banding, we get to enjoy a day of wall-to-wall sunshine today, but it will start out with a biting breeze as we are still between our departing storm, now a stronger low heading out of &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.woodshill.net\/?p=13425\" class=\"more-link\">Continue reading <span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Saturday January 8 2022 Forecast (8:05AM)<\/span> <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-13425","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-weather"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.woodshill.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13425","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.woodshill.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.woodshill.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.woodshill.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.woodshill.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=13425"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/www.woodshill.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13425\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":13427,"href":"https:\/\/www.woodshill.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13425\/revisions\/13427"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.woodshill.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=13425"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.woodshill.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=13425"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.woodshill.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=13425"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
