Three things to know:
Arctic air has rushed into the Hudson Valley along with gusty winds! That combination will make temperatures feel in the single digits all day long and even around or below zero in the morning hours. Bundle up whenever you're going to be outside, even for a short period of time.
A brief break from the frigid air will come our way Thursday. Temperatures will rise towards and above normal levels for this time of year. This will help to melt some of the recent snow around the area as well as allowing us to go outside without feeling that harsh rush of chilly air hitting us in the face. It is the "Pick of the Week," simply for the fact it will be the warmest day of the 10-day forecast.
Another round of winter weather is potentially on the way for the upcoming weekend ahead. Details will be ironed out over time, such as when the storm comes towards the region, how long it will impact the region as well as how much precipitation it will bring. One thing we do know for certain is that this would be an all-snow event if the storm hits us. As temperatures will be frigid all weekend long.
