Yet Another Clipper Hits the Northeast After a Brief Warmup

It has just been bone-chillingly cold across the northeast for the last several days. Luckily for most, by Tuesday, all of those crazy lows have kicked out of here, and have now been replaced by average or even above average temps.

This warmup is coming just in time for yet another clipper system to make its way through the northeast. This one is stronger than the last. Several winter weather advisories were issued for the northeast in anticipation of this system.

When all is said and done, the heaviest snow ends up in upstate New York and most of the New England area. With a few of these lake effect bands cranking well into late week, we can see some totals top out at 6" or more!

With warmer air ushered in, accompanied by freezing surface temps, there is the potential of a light ice glaze in places like New York City. While 0.1" of ice doesn't sound like much, it's sometimes all you need to cause issues. Especially on bridges and overpasses. Make sure you give yourself a little bit of extra time this week for those morning commutes!

But what about those temps after the fact? Well, judging by the Climate Prediction Center's (CPC) 6-10 day outlook, we're likely to continue with these above-average temperatures even after Valentine's Day weekend. It'll also do a good job thawing out some of that snow left behind by this week's clipper!
