Here it comes! A powerful cold front passes Monday morning, with gusty northwest winds and colder air to follow. Springlike ➡️ winterlike in a matter of minutes! Temps will drop 10-15° over a short period of time.

A dramatic air mass change is on the way, with feels like temperatures plunging from springlike warmth Sunday afternoon to mid-winter cold by Tuesday morning. Values in the upper 60s to middle 70s Sunday will give way to wind chill readings in the middle 10s to lower 20s by early

Holy cow, check out this temperature difference as the cold front comes crashing through Monday morning! You’ll see a wind shift and a 10-15° drop in a very short period of time. Don’t leave home in shorts. Winter returns! 🥶

It’s coming! Winter is about to slap us back to reality. 🥶 Three freezing nights are on the way starting Tuesday morning. If you’re going to be popping fireworks 🎆 to usher in 2026, prepare to bundle up!

Wow, for anyone vacationing across the Northeast this holiday period, you’re going to get a decent shot of snow! New York City will be blanketed Friday evening into early Saturday. If you’re there and get pictures, drop them in the comments! ❄️

This guy is still in charge of the weather for Friday and through the weekend. Highs will continue to run well above normal, reaching the middle to upper 70s. Look out, though, we’ll be MUCH colder for Tuesday and Wednesday!

Tick tock, tick tock. 🕰️ The clock is ticking on the unseasonable warmth across the country. A power Arctic cold front will be slicing the country in half Sunday afternoon, dropping to the southeast. If you’re ready for the cold air to return…just wait until next week!

A BIG weather shift is ahead! We’ll see middle to upper 70s again for Christmas afternoon. A passing cold front Monday will bring back some real winter air for next week. We’ll be bundled up New Year’s Eve! 🥶 P.S. Don’t shoot your eye out today! 😁 Merry Christmas! 🎄

Foggy mornings are ahead for mid- to late-week. Here's a look at visibilities for 6 am Wednesday, Christmas Eve. Plan some extra time if you're hitting the roads early. Similar areas of fog will follow for Christmas Day and Friday.

How about these afternoon temperatures for Christmas week?!?! Highs will run 10-15° above normal through the week and into the weekend, but the end is in sight. We'll be much colder starting next Monday. In the meantime, though, you can finish your Christmas shopping in shorts!

Here's a preview of the cold air potential for early next week. This is for 6 am Tuesday, December 30. Could be even colder for the morning of the 31st. If you like warm air, enjoy this week. If you like cold air...just wait until next week!

Wow, this punch of cold air for the last few days of the year is looking impressive! 🥶 Here’s the setup for Sunday evening as a powerful cold front sweeps across the Eastern and Southeastern US, bringing an abrupt and rather rude end to what will be an unusually warm Christmas

A good-looking Sunday is ahead as we turn warmer. Look for mostly sunny to partly cloudy skies with highs in the lower 70s.
