Cold snap for the long weekend

Saturday 7:00 am EST: With the snowstorm long past we turn our attention to a VERY cold weekend. Today will not be all that bad with highs in the mid 20s from about Augusta east to Port clyde, west to Montpelier VT south to near NYC. 30s can be expected for the Mid Atlantic region with clear skies overhead. Sunday however is the height of the cold snap with highs in the north and mountains reaching only to around +5 with lows approaching -20 in some mountain valleys. Elsewhere in NE highs in the teens north and 20s south. Mid Atlantic will experience the 20s in the north and 30s south.

Stay warm !!
