Welcome to Wednesday!

We're entering a time where the pattern is going to become extremely active as a series of  Clipper Systems bring a parade of cold fronts through the region.

Here is a look at the surface chart and radar.

We can see the high pressure is starting to exit the region along with a warm front extending into the region with rain showers up over northern New York State extending into northern and central new England. the trailing cold front will come through the region later today into tomorrow. This will bring Scattered rain showers and high elevation snow showers and strong winds. But it's the system that is showing up on the upper left section of the surface chart that will be a big weather maker for our region.

We're going to have two troughs of pressure low pressure move through for the second half of this week into next week. The first one moving into the Great Lakes  is deepening and will bring in colder temperatures along with rain and some higher elevational snow.

As the trailing strong cold front comes through We're going to see rain showers move across the region. There is going to be a chance for a few thunderstorms. Winds are going to become north-westerly and will be very breezy with sustained winds of 10-30 miles an hour with gust of 40-50+ miles an hour possible, The worst of the winds will be late today and into tonight.  Then as the cold air moves back in We are going to see rain in the higher elevations change over the snow showers and flurries. For the most part snow accumulations should be fairly minor. Later today into tomorrow morning as that cold air comes in over the relatively warm waters of Lake Ontario and Lake Erie we will see lake effect bands set up bringing some snow accumulation to the snow belts.

Tomorrow conditions will be improving, Lingering winds will still be gusty in the morning But the winds will be backing off as we go through the day. Becoming 5-15 mph Becoming 5-15 mph later in the afternoon High pressure will be overhead for Friday. Conditions look to be dry with south-westerly winds allowing temperatures to warm up. But these conditions won't last. As Saturday will see another cold front move through knocking our temperatures back down, along with scattered rain showers And higher elevation snow showers. 

Then we will be watching that other system I talked about above. This one will come through for Sunday and Monday and really means business. This trough is going to be very deep extending down into Florida. All of this is going to open those northern gates and allow an  arctic air mass to plunge into the central and eastern United States. For our region the heart of this will be arriving on Monday. 

Sunday night and Monday the winds really tighten up and will be howling, With wind gusts to 40-60+ miles an hour very possible. These northwest winds are going to transport lots of cold air into the region, with the winds, wind chills are going to be quite cold, The trough walks down so far south That wind chills across Florida look to be in the 20s and 30s. 

This is going to bring widespread rain That will be heavy at times to the region. as temperatures fall We will see snow develop. Right now snow is looking likely across western Pennsylvania, a large part of New York State, Northern Massachusetts, Vermont, New Hampshire and Maine. For now The rest of New England, Southeast New York State, Eastern Pennsylvania into Maryland, Delaware and New Jersey look to stay all rain, But there could be some snow mixing in at times, even along the coast. The Catskills and Poconos should end up seeing some accumulating snow. Lake effect snow should also be falling downwind of Lake Erie and Lake Ontario as the system moves through and departs. If any of y 'all haven't seen a hard freeze yet this year you most likely will with this!

Behind this for Monday night and Tuesday another system looks to move through Bringing back unsettled weather of rain showers and snow showers. High pressure looks to build back in for Wednesday.
