Time for your exclusive cbs 2 forecast with meteorologist Vanessa Murdock here. Shes keeping busy. Theres a lot to talk about. Lot to talk about, and also finally some more seasonable temperatures at the weeks end. But today, of course, the day everybody wants to know whats happening because, yes, were talking spring snow. First lets start off live outside to show you this beautiful picture. It is bright to start off. Sunrise around 6 30, right now its 38 degrees, we have northeast winds at 6 miles per hour. Your headlines. For today rain and snow arrives. South of the city through the mid section of new jersey. And then another cold night. Just how cold . Were talking the possibility of record cold overnight lows. Thats how cold its going to be tonight. As for the Winter Weather alerts, from 7 00 this morning through 8 00 p. M. Tonight a Winter Weather advisory, but the only county in our viewing area impacted from that is hunterdon. That is one of the counties we anticipate the highest snowfall totals in. So hunterdon, middlesex, Warren County will maybe get a little bit on those higher edge of the totals, but really up to two inches is about the maximum we expect. We could see some isolated spots with about three inches through that mid section of new jersey. The rest of us just going to see maybe a trace. And then many of us have to deal with this tonight, a freeze warning, again, going to be frigid overnight with near record cold. As we go into the day, these clouds will continue to thicken, the snow, the wintery mix, the rain not far behind. Heres the big picture. This is all associated with an sweeps down and out and across, and as it makes its way out, thats when we have our best chance to see snow in the city and points east. Thats because cold air will be wrapping in behind the system. Hour by hour, heres what you can expect from the forecast. This morning, of course, as we just saw, clear skies, bright, beautiful. That quickly translates to cloudy skies with wet weather moving on in. Mid morning the wet weather really starts to the west of the city, but then by 2 00 you see whats happening. It is snow, again, as i mentioned, through that mid section, well to the west of the city. As we look to the city, points east and even right along the coast, it is rain at this point in time. As we go into the evening, though, again, that colder air starts to filter in behind the storm, and we will see a little bit, i think, of wet snow as the system wraps out from the city and points east. But it is certainly not going to be an all white day for us out there. Were going to see mostly rain, and then those to the west of the city will see mainly snow. So as we go through your whole lot brighter. Itll be a mix of sunshine and clouds and also on the chilly side. Just a quick reminder of those snowfall totals. Most of us get maybe a trace to an inch at best. Higher totals through the mid section of new jersey, one to two inches. Maybe some isolated threeinch locales. Today its 43 degrees, thats your high. Thats where were heading now most of us in the 20s and 30s. Rain and wet snow, steadiest snow south and west. Winds really calm, but theyll be ramping up through the day. And then overnight it actually gets windy out there. Were talking about winds gusting between 30 and 40. The rain and snow ends early, then temperatures start to drop. 29 the overnight low, the record low 28. So we may very well tie a record tomorrow morning. By tomorrow afternoon a mix of sunshine and clouds and 47. That is more than 10 degrees below the norm. As you make your way into monday and tuesday, it is very unsettled. Were talking showers on monday, 58. Soggy and 57. Wednesday, thursday and friday, though, i am happy to report are looking lovely and finally seasonable in the mid to upper 50s, even low 60s out there with tons of sun. We have a ways to go before we really get to that longer stretch of pleasant weather thats what i was going to say. When is it going to become consistent . Its never going to be consistent in spring and spring does not officially end until late june yeah. Its a reminder that april really is a transitional month. We think spring, but Mother Nature has other ideas a fluctuation in spring. Vanessa, thank you so much. Lots of folks going to be doing some cooking this weekend.
