It looks like the snow threat has diminished for the region. It will be close, very close, but not this time, look for a cold rain and gusty northeast winds. A deep low pressure trough is sliding east across the Great Lakes today and will meet with low pressure moving north along the US coast. The system should be near New York City tonight and deepen rapidly as it slowly moves into New England. Heavy rain will develop across New York and Vermont today and spread north towards the Quebec border. Montreal should have showers today and a steady rain tonight into Friday. By Friday much colder air will begin to wrap into the western side of the system with rain changing to a period of wet snow before ending late Friday. The best chance for accumulating snow will be across Eastern Ontario and upstate New York, but even there it does not look like much. Saturday will be raw and chilly with scattered flurries. Temperatures will be fairly mild today at around 6C but much cooler Friday dropping into the 2 or 3C range and remaining there for Saturday. Skies should slowly begin to clear on Sunday and the start of next week looks awesome with milder temperatures and sunshine Monday through at least Wednesday.
Radar this morning is showing the steady rain into the southern tier of New York state and southern New England. There are also showers moving across Ontario, and they should arrive her by noon. Winds will be increasing as well across the St. Lawrence Valley.
