.DISCUSSION...
Dry conditions expected today as a small area of high pressure
builds in. An Arctic cold front approaching from the Great
Lakes and southeast Canada will move across our area late
Wednesday night into Thursday, bringing snow showers and some
snow squalls along with gusty winds. In wake of the cold front,
a bitterly cold air mass will move in Thursday night into Friday
with dry conditions. Below normal temperatures will continue
into the weekend, with just a low chance of snow showers mainly
west of the Hudson Valley.
