All right, this is Bindy Brockler, Steve Pelletieran. I am the Weatherman. Thanks for checking into the WeathermanPod.com on your Thursday, fourth day, the month of December, 2025. And we're looking at some real wintry weather coming up over the next several days. As a matter of fact, even though we're going to get into near to slightly below normal temperatures for this upcoming weekend, next week we see an Arctic area of high pressure moving down out of central Canada. That's really going to set the stage for maybe three to five days of well below normal temperatures, commencing around the middle to the end of next week. But in the meantime, got a couple of little systems to deal with today. Area of low pressure could give some snow to the Carolinas or sections of interior Carolinas and central and Shenandoah area of Virginia. Some of that snow could also get up to D.C., up into Baltimore and Philadelphia, maybe just touch it to New York City. The storm moving a little bit further to the north. We'll get more widespread snows into southern New York. But looks like the traffic that it's going to be at this point, uh central and northern New Jersey, northeastern PA, generally a coating to less than an inch. A little bit more than that as you go further south, Atlantic City, also way down into uh sections of the Del Marva Peninsula, coastal Virginia could get uh a couple inches of snowfall from the system. Maybe some rain along the coast. Ocean's still quite warm, and any wind that comes off the water will keep things on the warmer side there. But look for high temperatures on Thursday to range to near 40 to 45 at night with clearing. Strong cold front moves through down to about 14. Friday, increase in clouds that storm approaches from the south. Could give us a little area of snow. Later day and evening 31, more to the south, a little bit less to the north. Then on Saturday, leftover snow showers give way to partial sunshine and a high near 39. Sunday, partly sunny near 41. Traveling by air today, here's the outlook for the nation. Strong cold front, probably moving through the area somewhere between noon and 3 p.m. across uh D.C. up to Philly and New York. Uh is going to be some snow showers and squalls all across New York State, especially south of Lake Erie and Lake Ontario, streaming almost due east in those places. So there will be some delays getting into Buffalo or say Albany, Boston area, also because of strong winds and that frontal system moving through. There could be one to three hour delays because of weather there. And the same in New York at LaGuardia, JFK, and uh in the LaGuardia, Norc area, all the way down into Atlanta. Another area of rain is moving into there. That's the storm we'll be watching for the East Coast sometime later Friday. But it does look dry into the Charlotte area, dry also in central South Florida, but rainy conditions south of Atlanta. Heaviest rains along Louisiana, coastal Texas at Houston, Dallas, Fort North, also with some rainy weather during the daytime, especially this afternoon and tonight. Chicago's going to be dry. Could be some snow showers in Minneapolis. And looking at dry conditions, San Diego, LA, and San Francisco. Rain returns to Portland and Seattle over the next couple of days. I'm in your modeler, Steve Pelletier, and I am the weatherman. Hope you have a great day today. Talk to your first thing tomorrow. Enjoy your Thursday. See you then.
