Thursday’s Weather: Very Cold with Flurries

Another very cold day across the region, with sunshine fading behind increasing clouds, out ahead of a weak disturbance in the Ohio Valley. Some scattered light snow showers and flurries are possible with this disturbance… especially in the Catskills. The scattered snow showers and flurries should develop around mid day and continue until near midnight. A dusting to a half inch are possible in the valley areas, Catskills could see up to an inch or so. Because of the disorganized nature of this weak disturbance, conditions around the area will vary, so use caution later today.

In terms of temperatures, highs will be held in the upper 20s under the cloudy skies. Overnight lows are expected in the upper teens and low 20s. Conditions should improve on Friday with temps climbing above freezing… into the upper 30s. Bundle up and stay warm everyone! We’ll try to share updates as the snow showers and flurries develop later today.

With the colder temperatures, ice can now form across bodies of water .. Sadly, sometimes there are deaths. Please be safe if walking across the ice and know if it’s safe or not safe to cross.

Tuesday Snapshot... Arctic Chill Returns

The front has pushed through, and the winds will gradually increase overnight Monday into Tuesday. NW winds will gust 20 to 30mph on Tuesday, making those overnight and early morning temperatures in the teens feel more like the single digits... and the afternoon temperatures in the mid 20s feel more like the mid teens. So make sure you bundle up and layer up, as the bone chilling cold settles in for the next 3 days.

We'll see things bounce back at the end of the week, into the mid and upper 30s for highs by Friday and possibly Saturday, but that's when things get very complicated. A polar trough will be plunging into the upper Midwest, sending the coldest air of the season into the US. The question is, what happens on the front side of that arctic air? A low pressure will try to develop as the cold air surges into the eastern US, and we'll have to closely monitor things as they unfold. The time frame for a potential storm system would be on Saturday afternoon into Monday... and there are major questions about whether it's a weak disturbance, or a signifcant low pressure system. Something to track along with us through the week.

Either way, behind that threat will be brutally cold air. Highs in the teens, overnight lows near zero... for much of the work week next week (1/20 - 1/25). Things will be busy for the next few weeks, be sure to follow along with us. Stay warm friends!

Snow squalls to impact afternoon commute, be alert for brief but intense snow squalls this afternoon. May produce reduced visibility and quickly cover roadways.

Monday's Weather : One More Mild Day

The first half of January has been very cold in the eastern half of the country. But Sunday was, and now Monday will be milder than it's been, with highs expected near 40° in the Hudson Valley. But an approaching cold front will bring an end to all that by Monday night.

The front moves through around the evening commute on Monday, so a brief burst of snow showers can't be ruled out as the front passes... especially in the northern half of the valley. But behind the front temps will tumble into the upper teens by Tuesday morning. Highs on Tuesday will be about 10 to 15 degrees colder... only in the mid to upper 20s for highs.

But a strong upper level low pressure out in the Atlantic will bring gusty NW winds to the region once again... very similar to last week. That will mean wind gusts 20 to 30mph. That will take those afternoon temperatures in the 20s, and make for wind chills in the mid teens! Even worse will be the overnight and early morning wind chills in the single digits! These conditions will be with us from Tuesday through Thursday... so make sure you prepare for a VERY chilly week ahead.

Stay warm, Hudson Valley!

With the arrival of really cold temperatures, everyone digs out the space heaters for some warmth. Please DO NOT plug 🔌 a space heater 🔥 into a power strip.

Power strips can not handle the amount of electricity a space heater uses and overheats. Plug 🔌 the space heater directly into a wall outlet and do not use an extension cord and do not plug into a wall outlet controlled by a wall switch or dimmer switch. Do not run the space heater power cord under carpet or rugs or runners.

Plugging a space heater into a power strip can cause a fire 🔥

⚠️ Please read your owners manual for proper safety use information.

Please share this .. Thank you

Please be safe,

Brief weather update

Good afternoon everyone ☕️
Hope everyone is doing well

Not much is going on with the weather at this time. Next chance of precipitation (snow) will be in the Delaware and northwestern Ulster County area with an 1” of light snow possible on Wednesday, January 15th in the evening after 5pm.

As for the rest of the HVW area, there is a slim chance of light rain or snow-showers on Saturday. To far out to be for sure, but weather models are at 34% chance as of right now.

I know that’s hard to believe when today and tomorrow are the last two warm (heat wave 🔥) 😂 days there will be before another cold snap 🥶 arrives Tuesday through Friday morning, and then it warms up again next weekend and then super cold again for the work week next week with temps as low as 11° for a low in the mornings of next week.

So basically, two days of warmth and cold for this work week, warm up over the weekend, and then super cold next work week.

⚠️ With the temps dropping so cold, it’s a great idea to prepare now once again for frozen pipes, tend to live stock and prepare them for the freezing temperatures, and any outdoor pets as well should be brought indoors or some kind of way to set something up for them if they can’t come indoors. Please don’t forget about water for strays, livestock, and birds, you may have to break the ice water and put fresh drinking water out again, and repeat after it freezes over again.

If anyone has any ideas of using dry hay or straw or any ideas to help out, please feel free to post them in the comments. I read one one time where someone mentioned changing out the damp wet hay with clean dry hay, etc .. Was a very good idea and I’m sure there are more ideas that would be helpful.

Please be careful when using space heaters, kerosene heaters, candles, etc. Please plug space heaters directly into the wall outlet and not into an outlet strip.

It’s probably a good idea to check your fuel oil tank levels for home heating and make sure you have enough fuel, even if you’re on automatic delivery .. Always good to be safe.

Not much weather going on other than the really cold 🥶 temperatures coming up .. We can all make it through this together .. Please check on the elderly and neighbors to see if they are ok. Hope everyone stays warm 🔥and well ❤️

Please see weather graphics for more information. All graphics updated as of 1230pm Sunday, January 12th, 2025. Please check back for the latest weather updates by Alex, Bill, and myself

Be safe,

Sorry for the late start. We focus on the longer range, with a shorter discussion the weather for the next few days.

With the most recent light snow we just had and our northern counties are still experiencing at this moment, please use caution for black ice where the snow has melted and the runoff freezes into black ice. Please use caution when driving or walking.

Currently at 29° in the Kingston area and a low of 23° by 7am Sunday morning .. So, there is potential for black ice. Please be safe.

Weather radar update

Good morning everyone ☕️

The snow should end between 10am and noon time beginning with our western counties and ending in our eastern counties.

Light Snow Showers to start Saturday

We did not get the major winter storm that computer guidance was hinting at a week ago. Instead, what we do get, is a weak low pressure that will move out to sea... but send an area of light snow into the Hudson Valley and Northeast overnight.

Light snow showers should develop between 2am and 5am... and taper off between 6 and 9am. The snow showers are expected to be light and disorganized, because the air over the Hudson Valley is so dry. So despite the radar looking quite impressive... not much of what you see in NE PA and NY state is reaching the ground. Guidance had been suggesting that a coating to an inch... possibly an inch and a half could fall. However, the latest HRRR guidance suggests maybe a dusting to a half inch at best... because the dry air holds it's ground.

None the less, take stock of the conditions at your location Saturday morning before you head out. Because the amount of snow we get is dependent on the dry air, the could be some areas that see a dusting to an inch... while other locations may not see hardly more than a few snowflakes. Make sure to use a little extra caution if travelling in light snow tomorrow morning. Feel free to share conditions in the comments, if snowflakes are falling in your area.

01/10/2025

Light Snow Showers Possible Saturday AM

Computer guidance is almost unanimous at this time, taking the low pressure system currently impacting Texas and Arkansas... east/northeast off the coast of North Carolina by Saturday morning. It then continues eastward, out to sea. The swath of heaviest snow is likely to fall from NE Texas through Arkansas and into Tennessee.

So while the potential for a major snowstorm is very likely to not be realized once again. There is the possibility that enough moisture does push northeast Friday overnight and on into Saturday morning... so that a period of light snow is possible across the region. There is some mixed data on the details... but a dusting to an inch or so appears possible. The light snow develops overnight Friday, tapering off before noon on Saturday. We'll continue to monitor the details on Friday, and let you know if this looks more or less likely.

It won't be a significant event, but it's possible that any Saturday morning travel plans could be a bit slick due to a period of light snow. Keep that in mind if you will be on the roads Saturday morning. More info to come on Friday... TGIF
