In the aftermath of yesterday's highly unusually cold late October storm that formed off the Atlantic coast, moved northward across Long Island and into central New England that brought plenty of rain to the coastal areas and some snow inland, it is much quieter today as the lunch hour is upon us. Variable sky conditions can be found across the Philadelphia metropolitan area from partly cloudy skies in parts of northern New Jersey to a few rain showers on western Long Island.
Temperatures are still well below normal as readings are right now only in the 40s regionwide. High temperatures will moderate as we head toward the weekend as it is expected to rebound to around 60° over the next couple of days.
Graphics pages will be posted as soon as possible.
