Snow is a great insulator and prevent desiccation of insects and arachnids overwintering. Extreme cold with no snow cover can kill them. If you hate ticks you don’t want a lot of snow on the ground when we get the frigid weather. This weekend may beat some back!

Just before the snows came last week, I actually saw a butterfly near my bedroom window.  I was utterly shocked that there were still butterflies here.

I guess it's gone now.

Yeah the very warm December brought some things back out. Well now that has been dealt with. Usually you start worrying about Monarch butterflies in the early fall if you still see them here. They have to leave for Mexico!

I read that they aren't even going to Mexico anymore, they go to the southeast now instead.

Looking periodically very cold here 21st-28th, my guess is colder than what occurred yesterday the 11th or this Saturday the 15th. Could be two more significant storms here, around the 21st and 25th and our coldest of the winter may arrive after one of those.

Yesterdays CPC threats in the LR are added.

Morning thoughts…

Today will be sunny and milder. High temperatures will likely reach upper 30s and lower 40s in most of the region. Likely high temperatures around the region include:

New York City (Central Park): 38°

Newark: 40°

Philadelphia: 42°

Normals:

New York City: 30-Year: 39.3°; 15-Year: 40.2°

Newark: 30-Year: 39.8°; 15-Year: 40.9°

Philadelphia: 30-Year: 41.1°; 15-Year: 42.0°

Another shot of cold air is likely this weekend. Afterward, a storm will likely bring snow changing to rain Sunday night or Monday.

Low was 14, temp already up to 30. Wtf.

It was still in the teens like 30 minutes ago.

Wind shifting to the south off the 40s ocean. Welcome to Long Island!! Upcoming arctic air masses will be longer lived I think (what a bummer that it might get interrupted by rain in the 40s for 12 hours on Sunday before crashing again).

Good morning again,

No thread e LI/e CT/E MA this morning for Fri morning of 1/14. Models basically dry. Still not convinced there won't be a band of snow in the FGEN zone, as added below. 

Also, I keep looking at the GEFS and impressive attempt at cold shot after the 22nd and continues cold looking through at least the 28th.

The EPS is correcting stronger with the -EPO +PNA for late January. So this will allow for even colder temperature potential than we’ll see this weekend. Places with a shorter period of observations like JFK could come near record lows later in January. We’ll see if some stations with longer observation periods can approach record lows.The last time JFK had record lows in late January was 2019.

Hopefully a lot of snow to go along with the cold.  Cold air without snow is a terrible thing to waste.
