Colder air now pushing back into the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic after a mild weekend. It got all the way up to 61-degrees in Boston and a record 59 degrees all the way to Portland, Maine yesterday.
I enjoyed some incredible warmth first hand this past weekend down in beautiful Savannah, Georgia. It hit a record 81 degrees both Saturday and Monday down there and on our way back up NJ yesterday, we stopped off in Charleston, SC for the afternoon where it hit a record 79 degrees. I told my wife to enjoy this as this may very well be the warmest we experience all year.
We left Charleston around 3.45pm and just west of town the car was reading an impressive 82 degrees and even as late on as 7.30pm last night the dash still registered a balmy 73 degrees in central North Carolina. We eventually ran into a boundary separating warm air to the south and colder air to the north
We ran into heavy rain once into Virginia. In Richmond, rains were heavy and persistent with a lot of surface spray on I-95. The temperature was much cooler at around 44 degrees.
By the time we got to Washington DC, it was a chilly, breezy 39-40 degrees at around 1.30pm. We reached New Jersey around 3.30am this morning and got back to Tinton Falls at around 4.45am. Rains had stopped and we were on the colder side of the front. Temp on arrival this morning was a chilly 37 degrees. This was the largest drop I’ve experienced within a 12 hour period.

The secondary wave spreads heavy snow up through the mountains of Tennessee and North Carolina as well as further east. The biggest snows look to fall over Pennsylvania up through NW Jersey, New York and New England.
Here’s the GFS forecast snow cover at 96 hours (Saturday), while it not a solid, Northeast-wide snowpack, this will help moderate less, the arctic cold that comes down next week.
