New Jersey Hudson Valley Frost Advisories Freeze Warnings Posted Tonight

New Jersey Hudson Valley Frost Advisories Freeze Warnings Posted Tonight Tuesday October 18, 2022

We have a cold night ahead for Eastern Pennsylvania, New Jersey and the Hudson Valley with skies that have cleared however how low temperatures go will depend on clouds to the west that are rotating around a strong upper air and surface storm in the Eastern Great Lakes. Should clouds roll in, they will help to hold temperatures up tonight. However it should be cold enough to take temperatures down below freezing in many areas making for a widespread freeze and frost potential away from warmer urban centers and along the immediate coast.

Wednesday we are looking at sunshine but it will be a chilly day. Most highs will reach 50 to 55 with some areas in Northeast Pennsylvania and the Hudson Valley struggling to get out of the upper 40s. Then we are setting up for another cold night Wednesday night into Thursday morning with most lows inland in the 30s with warmer urban centers and coastal areas in the lower 40s.

The core of this cold air mass, and remember cold is relative to the time of year, will be along the coast Thursday so we will start to see temperatures moderate a bit. Sunshine will take highs to the mid to upper 50s Thursday afternoon.

Friday starts the move higher with temperatures reaching back into the 60s in most places. We should have a sunny finish to the week and I think the weekend should be mostly okay. There are some questions regarding a low developing off the Southeast US coast and creeping northward which is something the European has been showing while the GFS model has been slower with this feature and not an issue. Even the European’s view would keep the weekend dry with sunshine Saturday and no worse than sun and arriving clouds on Sunday. Highs both days will be in the mid to upper 60s.
