WEATHER BLOG: Strong Gusty Winds

The forecast is transitioning to a chillier Saturday with temperatures down from Friday with west to northwest breeze behind the first front that has moved through. Very cold weather is on the way for later Saturday through Sunday.

Might be a few flakes, especially northwest. The upper level trough will sweep across the area Saturday night into Sunday and although there can be a few flurries into the area as this takes place, no big deal for most of us although there is the outside chance of a brief heavier burst of snow Saturday night overnight with the trough energy.

The snow belt areas of New York and Pennsylvania are going to have lake effect snow kicking in Saturday and continuing into Sunday.

The trough will dump the cold air that we have been talking about across the region Saturday night though Sunday and it will be the coldest of the season and coldest since February.

Storm coming up the coast looks to spread raw, nasty wet weather beginning Tuesday and lasting into Wednesday.
