For the first time this season arctic air has descended over the Northeast today presenting the first single digits highs over parts of northern New England with widespread 20s and 30s.
Fresh snow cover and thicknesses down to 510 over much of the interior Northeast will make for a cold night under clear sky and light wind. Even the Major I-95 cities could dip into the upper 10s.

Over a foot of snow lies in the deep woods of Vermont, New Hampshire and Maine.
Expect a few places to dip to -20 by dawn Tuesday.
Today is by far the coldest of the season in Maine.
This of course is in stark contrast to December’s warmth.
Big time snow cover contrast between December 2014 and 2015 over New England.

The current arctic blast kicks out fast as a highly active West Coast storm track pushes the Plains ridge east and kicks the cold out into the Atlantic.
This is a great pattern for California and Southwest.
See video for this evening’s discussion and look at mid month arctic outbreak.
