The National Weather Service expects high pressure to bring an extended stretch of dry weather and gradually rising temperatures next week. First, Saturday, Nov. 14, brings brisk winds, below-average temperatures, and lingering showers in some inland areas.
Around New York City, northeastern New Jersey, and coastal Connecticut, highs should reach the upper 40s. Northwest winds will remain gusty, with breezy conditions continuing into Sunday, Nov. 15, according to the NWS New York office.
Snow showers remain possible farther inland.
AccuWeather’s weekend graphic shows scattered rain and snow showers across parts of Pennsylvania, Upstate New York, and interior New England into Sunday morning. Visibility could briefly drop, though roads are expected to remain mainly wet.
“Much of this weekend will be deemed wintry with cold winds, lingering rain showers, and even some snow showers, following accumulating snow in some areas from the Thursday to Friday storm,” said AccuWeather Senior Meteorologist Adam Douty.
The Berkshires could see isolated afternoon showers Saturday. Across Massachusetts and Connecticut, a prolonged dry stretch follows, with cold nights and increasingly mild afternoons, the NWS Boston office says.
Maryland and Virginia also face a brisk weekend. Allegheny Mountain snow showers could linger into Sunday morning, while overnight temperatures fall into the 20s and 30s, according to the NWS Baltimore/Washington office.
The improvement develops gradually.
Monday, Nov. 16, brings a quieter pattern as high pressure builds. Winds ease, but clear nights will still favor temperatures near or below freezing away from urban centers and tidal shorelines.
Milder afternoons become more noticeable by Tuesday, Nov. 17, and Wednesday, Nov. 18. Southern New England could reach the 60s by Wednesday, while the New York City area approaches the lower 60s later in the week.
AccuWeather’s week-ahead map shows high pressure steering storm tracks away, favoring little or no precipitation across much of the region.
