Hi , this is meteorologist Steve Pelletier and I'm the weatherman .

Thanks for checking in to theweathermanpodcom on your Friday . It is the 24th day in the month of January 2025 . And the month that has been showing temperatures across the mid-Atlantic and the Northeast about 5 degrees below normal . That trend most likely will continue . We are going to have some milder conditions as we head into the weekend . However , it looks like temperatures will be at or slightly below normal as we head through the remainder of this month .

Here's a look at the weather situation for your Friday Big area high pressure centered right over Lake Erie and Lake Ontario , western New York State and southern portions of Ontario and Quebec Province , extending all the way down into the Tennessee Valley . So that means high pressure building in With a little area of low pressure that's moving just offshore . It gave us some cloud cover in a few areas of snow showers in New York and Pennsylvania during the overnight hours , but that's now drying out and moving further offshore . We do see areas of snow across Wisconsin , in central and northern portions of Minnesota , also snowy conditions across Wyoming , western Nebraska , in North Dakota and also a good portion of Montana , especially in the Rocky Mountains to the west . Looking at scattered snow showers all across Idaho and sections of Utah and the Sierra Nevada as well . Area low pressure unfortunately across northern California is going to be settling down to the southeast and that will bring it just in a position that could increase the sand and winds in central and southern California . I know they're battling a lot of wildfires in the LA area and Ventura County and it looks like that wind is going to be increasing as we head to the weekend . So hopefully they'll be getting a good control of those fires there , but the wind are going to be a problem this weekend . It does look dry in San Francisco , also dry in Portland and up in the Seattle area as well .

Weather for the Northeast corridor , that is , from DC up to the Boston area , including central and northern New Jersey , where we're located , and New York City and Philly . We're looking at a mostly sunny day for today as our high temperatures reach the upper 20s and lower 30s . Clear at night down to about 10 to 15 , then partial sunshine for Saturday , also in the upper 20s lower 30s . As we head towards Sunday there'll be some extra clouds , a little warm front poking through and temperatures will get up to near 40 . In New York City I'm looking at temperatures between 40 and 45 on Monday , with a partly to mostly sunny day If you're flying , doesn't look like any major problems in the area airports Boston , new York , washington , baltimore , even down at Charlotte , atlanta and South Florida all looking pretty good , as they also do in Texas , both Houston and Dallas .

No problems there . There will be some snow showers moving into Chicago . Of course that snowy weather in Minneapolis , st Paul , could slow things down there , but it is dry conditions on the West Coast . No major problems expected there . I'm meteorologist Steve Pelletier and I am the weatherman . Hope you have a great day today .
