Detailed Discussion

Given the gradually strengthening, lengthening sun, temperatures should climb into the 30s, our mildest day since mid-January, and part of a warming trend that lifts readings into the 30s and low 40s tomorrow. Any sun today though will be brief, as another weak system accompanies the warming trend tonight into tomorrow. The morning weather maps show a cold front edging east through the Great Lakes, almost too far in advance of some colder air over northern Canada. A light southwest flow ahead of it keeps readings tonight in the 20s, cold enough for a few snow showers later this evening in NY, spreading east through northern VT and NH overnight into Tuesday morning. This front likely decays tomorrow morning, with a few localized snow showers or sprinkles drying up, leaving us a relatively mild, fairly cloudy afternoon, some 30s and low 40s, and perhaps some breaks of sun in southern valleys. This leaves Wednesday with some uncertainty. Some of the colder air in northern Canada attempts to expand into Quebec to our north, while a piece of a storm in the western US reorganizes over the northern Plains tomorrow night, spreading into the Great Lakes Wednesday. Earlier projections brought a period of a wintry mix south, and mostly snow north late Wednesday into Wednesday night, however the latest trends have strengthened the push of the colder air, which in turn has forced the chances of snow and rain farther south. For now, areas west and south of I-89 have a good chance of snow or a wintry mix, while northeastern areas may miss out. Temperatures appear to remain close to seasonal averages through the end of the week, while another storm considers an arrival late Friday night into Saturday.
