Let's take a look at our weather to everybody that's waking up with us.
Good morning to you.
Cesar's here to tell us just what kind
of day it's going to shape out to be.
But it's a bit chilly out there right now, I'll tell you that.
So you'll need a few layers for sure.
Definitely, Julie.
If you run on the cooler side of things, right,
we are certainly seeing that it is quite chilly out there.
Temperatures mostly hanging either in the low 50s or mid 40s.
So we'll continue to see a lot
of those temperatures slowly increasing as we head in towards...
The daylight hours, but for the most part, look at that.
It is still quite cool out there.
We're continuing to see plenty of clear skies as well.
That's really the main thing at the moment.
Mostly clear skies, and we have a cold front
that is sweeping through parts of the Great Lakes region.
And that's going to be the main driver of our winds for today.
So, if you're not a fan of the wind,
make sure to try to avoid being outside today.
Yes, it's going to look pretty deceiving until you start to see
the branches and everything starting to move around, right?
Right, because it will look.
Picturesque, it'll look like similar to yesterday, but you have
those winds coming in out of the west, a bit strong at times, right,
can see wind gusts up to about 34 miles an hour, but temperatures
will stay quite mild back around the mid 60s, mid to low 60s.
Then as we head into the overnight hours, post cold front,
of course, we're going to have some colder air out there
as well going in towards tonight and then also seeing some
of those conditions being aided by the clear skies, right,
we lose a lot of the warmth that we ended up gaining during the day.
Then, don't worry, we do see winds shifting out
of the southwest slightly tomorrow,
which is going to help boost our temperatures
with that sunshine back into the mid to upper 60s.
Now, let's talk about what we all were seeing
on social media over the weekend, right?
The potential for a system bringing in the potential of snow.
So, this system, while, of course,
it was overestimating how cold it was going to be,
the track is mostly correct still.
It is wanting to ride through parts of the Atlantic seaboard
and bring us some wet weather.
The thing is, though, does it get cold enough for snow?
No, only in the higher elevations.
We're going to see temperatures mostly hanging around in those 50s for
a lot of our daytime highs, which is not cold enough to produce snow.
You at least need temperatures to hang right around parts
of the upper 30s to even have a chance
to have some snow showers being produced because of that.
Cooling effects that you can have when it's a little drier out there
or even just convective cooling, right?
The system itself creating cooler air
being dragged down towards the surface.
Otherwise, though, expect to see cooler
temperatures to head into the weekend.
The good thing is that we do dry on out.
So look at Saturday and Sunday.
Most of us will be in the low to mid 50s.
