Will it snow in NYC? Possible nor'easter impact this week

The start of the week looks okay. We have a couple of spotty showers this morning, but temperatures are going to be above normal. But then we're going to see a plot twist. By Thursday and another one over the weekend. So let's take you in order here, Dan. Okay. We can see on the radar we have a couple of showers passing through. But you saw the temperatures north of us. North. North, uh, North. Northern? I speak in directions. I'm a meteorologist. Okay. But the screen that was above the radar. Oh, okay. That's north of the radar. Got it. Right? Temperatures were in the 50s. But our winds are starting to pick up in speed here. So it's a bit breezy. But now they're gusting up to 30 miles per hour. Oh, that's pretty strong. Yeah. So when you go outside, it's going to be like wind whipped. Hair blowing, jackets, and things like that. That's a problem for me. It can add to the chill and the shade here. And it's going to be blustery not only today, but also tomorrow. We are tracking those showers, as we just saw on the radar. I think these are going to fall apart, so the rest of the afternoon should be just fine. I don't have my umbrella, so if I don't have my umbrella, you're okay. We're going to get a passing shower, mainly north of the city. That's later. Tonight? No, that's happening right now. Oh. Yeah, right now. Okay. But that'll taper off probably around lunchtime, and the afternoon should be just fine. So if you have any outdoor plans or games, you're good? Okay. So now we have high pressure coming in behind the trough that's bringing us the rain this morning. That's going to set us up for a nice stretch of weather for the next couple of days. Then we have some changes as we go further on into the week. Happy Monday, Bill. Thank you. It's great to see you too and hear you. Here we go. So Thursday, we have a system coming in. There's talk this will be our next Nor'easter. Oh, that's what it is, Thursday? Oh. So the timing is Thursday afternoon. This is going to be a soaking rain for us. Now, for us here in the tri-state area, it's going to be rain and not snow. You will hear talk about snow. That's going to be upstate New York. So we're talking like Syracuse, Buffalo, Albany, maybe as close as northern Sullivan County. We could get a few snowflakes flying, but we're not going to see a shovel. Is that in our viewing area, northern Sullivan County sometimes? Yeah, Sullivan, Ulster, and Dutchess counties and the Hudson Valley. But for everyone else, it's going to be rain. Now, the rain is going to taper off on Friday morning, but there's still going to be a couple of spotty showers on Friday. The other plot twist. After that moves out of the area, we have cold temperatures next weekend. Are those related? Like, do they suck out all our mildish air, or is it just kind of happening? Well, it's actually a part of the front that's coming through. It's bringing down our first, like, Arctic blast from Canada. Okay. So our high on Saturday, 50 degrees. However, some of the highs will only be in the 40s. Now, keep in mind, that's our high temperature for the day, so much of the day will be even colder than that. Yeah. So that's like noon, 1 o'clock, maybe when the sun's out, you might get, like, 2. Yeah, 50, you could probably hit around 2 or 3 o'clock at this time of year. Okay. But the good news is over the weekend, we're nice and dry. So for all the games, the football games, all the things, you should be fine. You just have to be layered up. This is Super Bowl Sunday for a lot of those little peewee football leagues. Yeah, our team up there, the Verona Eagles, made the Super Bowl. So there you go. We also have a home game, too, with the Jets on Sunday. Oh, that's good. It's going to be a little cold out there. And they need a win. So can we just track back just a little bit to that Nor'easter? Sure. The possibility. Like when you say possibility, because sometimes I know we can see those things move. It's moving like you can see it forming. How do we know that that's possibly out there? Well, it's actually a probability. We do expect it to develop. And what I was pointing out is that... For here in the tri-state area, it's going to be in the form of rain and not snow. There will be snow with it, but that snow is going to be well to our north. Is it coming, like, off the water in? That's how those things work? Okay, so we have a low. Let me go back. Can I go back? Let's go back. Okay. I do have, let me get these things out of here. We have all kinds of things right in front of us for everyone watching at home. So we have an area of low pressure that is developing. I can't see this. Okay, we have an area of low pressure that's developing across the midsection of the nation. Okay. That's going to cross through the Ohio Valley. Yes, that comes over. Reach us here by Thursday. It's going to kind of move off the coast, so that's where it's going to develop, intensify into a nor'easter, and then slowly work its way north and then northeast. Any, any... Is there a possibility, probability, that it comes a little further south? I mean, I guess, are you totally ruling that out at this point? Are you hoping for that, Dan? No, I just want to let the people know in our last minute here on the newsroom live. It's going to be mainly rain. Okay. Our temperatures are just too warm. Oh. Yeah. That's true. Yeah, you're right. Or just too warm. All right. I should look at that. All right. Audrey, thank you very much. You're welcome.
