frigid February day, the folks south and east of us in the Mid-Atlantic
states are in for a foot or two of snow. Here, that would be an
inconvenience. There, it will be a state of emergency. If you're traveling
to Philadelphia, Baltimore or Washington, D.C., today or Saturday, you may
want to think twice about it.
What's protecting us for all that nasty stuff, the National Weather Service
says, is a broad region of high pressure over eastern Ontario. It's also
going to keep us cold. Today should see sun through high clouds with
temperatures in the upper 20s. Tonight promises more clouds and a low in the
mid-teens.
Saturday is expected to be cloudy and colder, with a brisk north wind
pushing in behind that storm system down south of us. Anticipated high is
just over 20, with the Saturday night low down in the low teens. A few
lake-effect flurries may sneak down on us from Lake Ontario.
On Super Bowl Sunday, the sun is supposed to return, but the cold weather is
expected to stick around. High again will be in the low 20s. The good news?
There's no significant snow in our forecast until the middle of next week.
